[Tender yet resilient heroine VS outwardly cold, warmhearted, paternal hero]
On the day of her parents’ funeral, Jian Ning’s uncle drugs her and bundles her off to the bed of an old bachelor.
Unwilling to suffer the humiliation, Jian Ning summons all her strength and destroys the old bachelor’s manhood before making her escape. By a twist of fate, she ends up in the room of Song Shian, the capital’s young heir.
After a night of passion, the young heir pulls up his pants and refuses to take responsibility, even trying to humiliate her with money.
With tears in her eyes, Jian Ning tears up the check he tosses at her and leaves in anger.
They meet again at the hospital, where Jian Ning’s own relatives are forcing her to become the second wife of the crippled old bachelor.
Song Shian takes one more look, feels a surge of compassion, and helps her out. From then on, he can’t stop helping her.
When Jian Ning’s uncle harms her, Song Shian teaches him a lesson. When a woman secretly in love with him harms her, he sends her off to mine in Africa…
Before he knows it, Song Shian is hooked on spoiling his wife. As long as she’s happy, he’d give her his life!
Well written, not verbose at all.
