[Cold, ruthless business magnate × resilient fallen young woman, a cursed widower who dotes on his poor little darling]
In an imagined ancient era, Xue Jingqian is a business tycoon with power over an entire city. He owns countless clothing shops and taverns, and is ruthless, cold, and abstinent by nature.
He married four times, yet every one of his wives met a mysterious death without exception. The whole city whispers that he is cursed, born to bring death to his wives and fated to live alone forever.
After that, Xue Jingqian shut his heart away. Detached and aloof, he had no interest in love or marriage, living out his days in solitude in his sprawling estate.
Feng Siyue has no one to rely on. Orphaned young, she has been tormented and exploited in every way by her drunken, violent father, suffering all the cruelty life has to offer.
With nowhere left to turn, she is handed over by her heartless father to work as a servant in the Xue residence, a place that strikes fear into everyone who hears its name.
A cold, hard-hearted man in power meets a fallen young woman with a tragic past.
Together, they heal each other and defy fate. He sheds his icy reserve, giving her a lifetime of devotion and steadfast companionship.
