The second male lead tears the family apart | Anti-wealthy-family showdown | A battle of devotion | Obsessive waiting | Souls bound together
[Radiant, stubborn fallen heiress × Wild, powerful CEO × Genius, mad scientist]
Huo Qingyuan got her wedding ring. Zhao Yanming got her tears.
And she got a home, and a youth she could never return to.
All three of them were prisoners. Only one held the key, and it was in someone else’s hands.
The first time Huo Qingyuan saw Shen Zhiyu, she was being driven out of a bank lobby.
He told her, “Marry me, and everything will be taken care of.”
She refused. She would rather take charge of a failing company on the verge of collapse, be called a money pit by her own family, and be treated like a social butterfly by business partners than become his canary.
Zhao Yanming was a different kind of creature. A genius scientist celebrated around the world, he was always gentle, always restrained, and always there just when she needed him most.
He still remembered what she liked to eat. When her tastes changed, he pretended not to notice. When she was left to clean up a mess, he said, “It won’t be hard to fix.”
He was so perfect Huo Qingyuan wanted to kill him.
The flames of the family feud spread from Jingzhou all the way overseas. Amid the blazing inferno of destruction, how could they embrace without hurting a tender heart?
It turned out she was willing to give in to him. She just wouldn’t say so.
That madman, steeped in sin yet saving every bit of his tenderness for her alone, had never left either.
