The second young master of the Shen family was unruly and vicious, a man who stopped at nothing.
When Xie Qianqiu first met him, all he could think was how handsome he was. That face certainly gave him every reason to pretend to be well-behaved.
It was true that Shen Zhaohan’s temper wasn’t actually that bad.
Later, Xie Qianqiu brought him home with a lavish dowry, and he said thank you.
But Xie Qianqiu didn’t need his thanks. All he needed was love.
He stood in Shen Zhaohan’s world, but there was only so much he could do to help.
Did Shen Zhaohan like Xie Qianqiu?
He did. He liked that Xie Qianqiu was so different from everyone else by nature.
And he liked the way he was when he fell in love.
But the Xie family was only a means to an end. Shen Zhaohan’s intentions in approaching him had never been pure, and the Xie family had no need for someone so calculating.
But Xie Qianqiu said, “You’re the only one I’ll ever love. There’s no one else.”
Shen Zhaohan sank into a warm embrace, and all the coldness inside him melted away.
As for what came next, they could leave that for later.
