[Marriage first, love later + fake and real heiresses + groveling pursuit + forced love + 1v1]
[Gentle, resilient, hard-luck accountant VS sinister, seductive business tycoon]
When Ye Mengqing was fifteen, a DNA report turned her life upside down. She went from a pampered heiress envied by everyone to a fake who had stolen the real daughter’s place.
At twenty-two, her birth mother’s thick stack of medical records made her the real heiress’s replacement bride, forcing her to marry Lu Yanchu, the heir to the wealthy Lu family of Jingbei.
After the wedding, Ye Mengqing thought she had finally found her place in life.
But one night, a drunken man pinned her by the waist and kissed her passionately, murmuring someone else’s name.
In that instant, Ye Mengqing felt as if she’d fallen into an icy abyss.
It turned out she had been nothing but a substitute from beginning to end.
When their three-year marriage contract expired, Ye Mengqing didn’t put up a fight. She signed the divorce papers, moved out of their marital home, and gave her place back to the real heiress, who had returned from abroad.
But after she let go of everything, the possessive man refused to release her.
He locked her away in a separate villa, held her chin, and slowly teased her lips with his.
“Now, I can give you anything except your freedom.”

“Fate is a riddle, and you are its only answer.”
