Shen Zhiyu’s life plunged into an abyss the moment the Shen family collapsed.
To save her family, she agreed to a marriage of convenience and married Lu Chengyuan, a powerful figure with real influence in Beijing’s elite circles.
Bound by a contract and distant after the wedding, she thought it was nothing more than an act.
But his quiet favoritism, his tenderness in the dead of night, and the deep affection he could not conceal in his eyes drew her in, step by step.
Until truths and misunderstandings became entangled. Her heart died, and she left, severing every tie.
Years after their parting, she was reborn, stronger and more dazzling than ever.
He cleared away every political obstacle and shed all worldly trappings, just waiting for her to look back.
“I spent ten years loving you in secret in exchange for a lifetime of peace for you. Shen Zhiyu, don’t leave me again.”
