He Was Trapped in Hell, Yet Let Only Me See the Light

To save her mother, Nan Qi marries Shi Yu, a man rumored to be “cruel, disfigured, and impotent.”

Everyone is waiting to see her tortured to death, and even her ex-boyfriend mocks her for risking her life for money.

Nan Qi doesn’t care, because she has a secret: Shi Yu is the man she has loved with all her heart for ten years.

After the wedding.

The cruel husband she imagined brings her warm milk every night, holds her on his lap and soothes her to sleep on rainy days, and deals with anyone who bullies her with ruthless efficiency.

The disfigurement she imagined turns out to be a handsome face beneath the mask, so stunning it takes her breath away, if a little pale.

As for the impotence…

Nan Qi rubs her aching waist and glares at the sweat-soaked man doing his rehabilitation exercises. “Those rumors were way off!”

“Shi Yu, why are you so good to me?”

“Because I’ve been waiting in this dark abyss for so, so long, just to bring you to my side.”
