Shen Lingli lived in a hell where sons were prized over daughters.
Her parents drained her dry, her younger brother leached off them, and her whole family treated her like an ATM, all to fund the useless boy’s pursuit of online influencers.
Forced into a blind date to secure a 500,000-yuan bride price, she caught her date flirting with another woman.
As she turned away in embarrassment, she stumbled into the arms of a refined, aloof man.
Only later did she learn that this man she had met by chance was the CEO of a publicly listed company worth hundreds of billions.
Everyone said President Lu was cold and taciturn, and had no interest in women. Yet he spoiled Shen Lingli like no one else.
“I’ll pay the bride price, provide for your family, and take care of everything in your future.”
He helped her put the awful people in their place, protected her for life, and gave her all his tenderness.
With red-rimmed eyes, Shen Lingli asked, “Why are you so good to me?”
Lu Yanci lowered his head and kissed her. “Because meeting you is what makes this life worthwhile.”
