A comeback story of wrong marriages, a downward spiral, and a lifetime of regret
Liu Qingqing is known by all as the Snow Mountain Goddess. Born into a Brahmin family of the highest standing, she has lived a life of luxury and privilege since birth. Exquisitely beautiful and otherworldly in bearing, she seems to possess every good thing in the world.
Proud and demanding, she has impossibly high standards for her lifestyle, her romantic partners, and marriage. Her greatest obsession in life is finding perfect love and enjoying a lifetime of happiness without ever having to settle.
When she is young, Liu Qingqing falls in love with a handsome, wealthy young man from a family of equal standing, also part of the Brahmin elite. They love each other for three whole years. Their relationship is passionate, a constant tangle of love and hate, tenderness and strife. To outsiders, they are made for each other, and everyone believes they will marry and spend their lives together.
But no one realizes that cracks have long been forming beneath their sweetness.
Liu Qingqing is domineering and hot-tempered. She expects the man to accommodate her, indulge her, and give in to her unconditionally. The slightest displeasure sends her into a screaming fit or a sulking cold war. Meanwhile, her Brahmin boyfriend, Fu Jingxuan, is handsome and accomplished on the surface, but when they are alone together, he always falls short. He cannot give Liu Qingqing the tenderness and affection she longs for, leaving her frustrated and dissatisfied for years. Her resentment builds over time.
Before long, one of her close friends takes advantage of the situation and secretly seduces Fu Jingxuan, Liu Qingqing’s boyfriend. The two carry on behind her back, secretly seeing each other and carrying on an affair.
