When they first met, it was a simple, boring morning. Their eyes met. Xu Zhihan glanced at him, then looked away, and felt not the slightest stir in her heart. Su Yichen wore a pale suit, polite and impeccable, with a gentle, refined air. Their eyes met only briefly, but when he looked at Xu Zhihan, he could no longer look away.
One day, Su Yichen saved her in an accident. As they spent time together, Xu Zhihan began to feel a little fond of him.
Later, Xu Zhihan went abroad to study and became a renowned international researcher. When she returned, she was greeted with flowers and applause, full of confidence and spirit, as sharp and cold as a sword that could cut through anything. But then her father’s company ran out of funds, and everything he had worked for his entire life went up in smoke. Regret weighed on him, and he seemed to age overnight.
Xu Zhihan had never been involved in business, but she ran from place to place trying to help. Just as she was about to give up, Su Yichen found her and proposed a marriage alliance. She agreed.
After they married, Su Yichen played the perfect husband, and Xu Zhihan fell in love with him.
But things did not go as she hoped. Su Yichen cheated on her with his first love. He had married her for one reason only: Xu Zhihan looked like the woman he had always loved. Before the research results she had spent nine years achieving could even be published, the person beside her betrayed her and destroyed all her hard work. Her reputation was ruined, and she lost her job. In the final winter of her life, she died quietly, unnoticed.
The moment Mu Yanci heard the news, he took his own life for love.
