It took Lin Wei three years to turn a love that never saw the light of day into the impression of "diligence and reliability" in the eyes of her boss Gu Chengyuan. Until late at night after working overtime, he rubbed his tiredness and said the truth, and then placed a cold resignation notice in front of her.
"That's why I can't keep you by my side anymore."
Just when she signed her name in despair, he grabbed her wrist and gave her a second option - a way of "staying".
The next day, she put on a diamond ring on her ring finger and sat in the dressing room of his luxurious villa. With an accidental touch, the smooth mirror suddenly slid open, revealing a blood-freezing sight: an entire wall covered with candid photos of her over the past ten years. The earliest picture was taken during my youthful high school days. Next to the photo, a line of small words is still written in ink: "Finally, I legally own you."

Gu Chengyuan's desire for control is as suffocating as his gentleness. Every glance he takes is like assessing a collection that is being domesticated.
In despair and fear, Lin Wei discovered something even stranger - a secret mechanism under the photo wall, a gap that quietly blew out the cold wind in the basement. There were suspicious noises downstairs last night, and the hourly worker's vague avoidance.
