[Reborn playboy × sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside loyal hound]
In the first half of her life, Xu Zhiyao drifted through a life of wine and women, surrounded by admirers. She took Wan Xuchuan’s attentive care for granted. She never knew that the man who handled every household chore would quietly threaten anyone who coveted her, hide his obsession behind a gentle facade, and tuck his love into the details of their everyday life.
After a sudden accident cuts her life short, she returns reborn and finally sees the exhaustion in his eyes and the sharpness he keeps hidden. At first, she feels no love for him at all. She only wants to repay his devotion and make up for all the years she wronged him.
But as they spend more time together, she stumbles upon his true nature. His gentleness was an act; beneath it, he was dark and calculating. His pitiful looks were all fake, and his possessiveness had been hiding in plain sight.
He has waited half a lifetime, and being her protector was never enough. He wants to be the only place she calls home in this life.
