[Substitute Marriage, Love After Marriage, Slow-Burning Romance, Reunion After Years Apart]
For the money, Luo Jia takes her twin sister’s place and marries the second young master of the Lu family.
Rumor has it that the Second Young Master Lu grew up fleeing through a hail of bullets.
He’s violent by nature and has killed countless people.
Luo Jia counts the days on her fingers, living in constant fear,
waiting for her twin sister to wake up so she can leave.
The second young master has strong, chiseled features and treats her tenderly. As time passes, she can’t help falling for him a little.
At a gathering with friends,
she hears him casually say, “I only married her because Grandma likes her.”
Luo Jia hides her feelings, her heart dimmed.
Later, once she has saved enough money and her sister has woken up, Luo Jia secretly switches places and leaves with her adoptive mother.
Three years later, they meet by chance.
The man uses alcohol as an excuse to press her tightly against him. After a night of passionate entanglement, he smiles nonchalantly.
“Sorry, I mistook you for someone else last night. You look exactly like my wife.”
As Luo Jia flees in panic,
the hatred in Lu Xichen’s eyes finally comes into full view.
At first, Lu Xichen only married her because his grandmother liked her.
If she hadn’t been a daughter of the Luo family, she could just as well have been a daughter of the Zhang or Zhou family.
But later…
Later, he recognized at a glance that the woman before him, who looked exactly like his wife, was no longer the person she used to be.
He held back the urge to drag her back,
betting that she loved him and would return of her own accord.
A day, two days, a month, a year.
Luo Jia never came back, and he nearly drove himself mad waiting.
