Everyone in the capital knew that Shen Yanzhou, head of the Shen family, was an iceberg and a misanthropic madman.
He hated being touched, until the stand-in fiancée who was supposed to get lost kept “accidentally” falling into his arms.
At first, he sneered, “Get lost.”

Finally, when she tried to escape, he built a cage around her with his arms and murmured hoarsely, his eyes red, “Lin Yan, you’re my medicine. I can’t quit you.”
He thought she was clinging to him with ulterior motives. Little did he know, she was only trying to stay alive.
