He spent five million to buy her as a fake wife for a year, but he doted on her and put her on the throne of his heart; he loved her deeply, but disappeared when he should tell the truth most.
In order to save her critically ill mother, Su Qian signed a marriage contract and married the cold-faced CEO Lu Jingchen. One year, and upon expiration of the divorce, he will take away five million, and the two will owe nothing to each other from now on.
She told herself, don't be tempted, this is just a transaction.
But he blocked her ex-boyfriend's entanglement for her. After being drunk, he hugged her and said, "I really like you." He held her hand in front of her mother and said, "After I met you, I believed in love."
She finally fell. But on the day she decided to give up five million, Lu Jingchen disappeared.
Three days later she received a letter: "Sorry, I'm getting married, forget about me."
She thought that one year of tenderness was all a lie.
Until a call came: "Lu Jingchen is in the hospital, come quickly."
She ran to the hospital like crazy - he was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale. When he saw her for the first time, he smiled and burst into tears.
"Su Qian... I don't want to get married... Because I'm going to die."
Late-stage brain cancer lasts up to three months. He left not because he didn't love her, but because he loved her too much. He didn't want her to watch him die.
But he underestimated Su Qian.
She threw away five million and stayed by his bed for three months, never leaving for a day.
On the last day, he looked at her and said in a voice as soft as the wind: "If there is an afterlife, I still want to meet you."
She smiled, tears falling on the back of his hand. "Okay. In the next life, you don't have to spend a million. I will marry you for free."
