A powerful woman and man, intense push and pull, and a husband chasing his wife after losing her
A brooding, scheming man vs. a wealthy heiress as untouchable as a mountain flower
Eight years ago, Lu Shaoyuan lived with the Zhao family, where Zhao Xueying and the people around her bullied him mercilessly.
The first thing fourteen-year-old Lu Shaoyuan ever said to Zhao Xueying was, “Sooner or later, you’ll be mine.”
When she saw him again eight years later, he said to her once more, “Sooner or later, you’ll…”
Before he could finish, Zhao Xueying slapped him across the face.
After that, Lu Shaoyuan dragged her down from her pedestal, step by step, and took everything from her.
Forced to endure his torment, she was like a rag doll at his mercy. She tumbled down the stairs and crawled to the door, a long, glaring streak of blood trailing beneath her bare legs.
“Xueying!”
She disappeared for eight years. When she returned, she was no longer the aloof, proud woman she had once been. Her eyes held too many things he could not understand.
Lu Shaoyuan knelt and begged her. “As long as you’re willing to be with me, I’ll do anything you ask.”
She planted a foot on his hand. “Oh? Anything?”
“Anything, as long as you don’t hurt my parents.”
