Su Miantang lived with the Gu family for five years out of gratitude for a life-saving favor, and loved Gu Mingchuan for five years.
Just when everyone thought Gu Mingchuan would marry her, he said a blind woman was fine for a bit of fun, but creepy to keep around. Su Miantang heard him say it herself.
Just as Su Miantang thought the whole world had abandoned her, Huo Yan suddenly entered her life. He bullied her, teased her, and played jokes on her, but he never looked down on her.
Huo Yan: “From now on, she’s under my protection!”
At Lord Huo’s word, everyone in City A learned that he had a woman he treasured.
Gu Mingchuan regretted it and came to take her back, only for Huo Yan to unceremoniously kick him out.
Late at night, the notorious Lord Huo knelt at the woman’s feet and spoke gently:
“Sweetie, I chased the bad guy away. Can you stop being mad now?”
Su Miantang’s lower back still ached, so she cruelly sent him to sleep in the guest room.
The butler adjusted his glasses. What would the outside world think if they knew their Lord Huo wasn’t even allowed to sleep in his own bed?
