[Love at first sight + mutually faithful couple + possessive love]
One party, one cutting remark, and she became the obsession of his entire life.
Lu Heqian hated Xu Wenning: her arrogance, her dazzling presence, and most of all, the offhand way she called him an “illegitimate son,” stripping him of every ounce of dignity.
So when she had nowhere left to turn, he locked her by his side as his secret lover.
He was her hell, her shackles, the nightmare she longed to escape day and night.
But he was also her only salvation, the lifeline for her mentally ill mother.
She thought he would hate her forever, never knowing that, through every act of coercion and entanglement, hatred had already begun to change into something else.
When she learned he was connected to her mother's death, and fought with all her might to escape his control, Lu Heqian finally came to his senses:
The person he had trapped wasn't his enemy, but the woman he loved down to his very bones.
The road to winning her back was paved with blood and tears.
He protected her with his life and tried to atone with his love, only to hear her say:
“Lu Heqian, we're even now.”
