Jiang You was born into a wealthy family and looked down on the "baggage" his father's second wife brought with her.
To their faces, he was polite but distant toward the mother and daughter. In private, he made no secret of his disgust for his stepsister. But as they spent time together, he gradually found himself drawn to her. Before he could make up for the hurt he'd caused, she married someone else.
From Sucheng to the capital, Zhu Tingxia found life almost unbearably difficult. She had reached the limits of what she could endure.
Just then, she met Zhou Wangye, who became the light that helped her keep going.
The year she graduated from university, the Zhou family went to the Jiang family to propose marriage.
She wasn't a member of the Jiang family, so she naturally wasn't among the possible brides. But the other party didn't mind and included her birth details in the marriage compatibility reading.
The results were unexpected: her birth chart was the most compatible of all.
Heaven had given her a chance to draw closer to the light, and she accepted gladly, even though she knew things wouldn't end well.
She falls in love first; he falls in love after they marry.
