Rumor has it that Fu Sinian, the head of the Fu family, is ruthless and cold-blooded, the “Living Yama” feared throughout Beijing’s social circles.
To save the ancient books museum her father had devoted his life to and pay off an enormous debt, Shen Nian had no choice but to package herself up and deliver herself to his negotiating table.
She thought it was just a cold arrangement in which both sides got what they wanted. So when they signed the agreement, she insisted they sleep in separate rooms and keep their distance, preparing herself for a marriage in name only.
She thought he was far above her, offering her nothing but the empty title of Mrs. Fu.
Until their wedding night, when the man rumored to have no interest in women pinned her against the wall, dark currents surging in his eyes that she couldn’t understand.
Until she happened to look through some old belongings and discovered the umbrella from that rainy day, the ancient book with a bookmark tucked inside… They were all proof of his love for her.
Only then did Shen Nian realize that this marriage had never been her desperate gamble.
It was the fulfillment of his seven-year-long plan.
“Shen Nian, welcome home.”
[What to Look Forward To]
A striking contrast: The cold-blooded “Living Yama” to everyone else versus the obsessive, tender husband who can’t stop keeping an eye on his wife.
Mutual healing: A fallen heiress and an ancient-book restorer grow into their own, supporting each other through the storms of a wealthy family.
The ultimate unrequited love: His heartfelt inner monologue, from school uniforms to wedding dresses, from quietly watching over her to carefully plotting every step.
[In a Nutshell]
She thought she was jumping into a pit of fire, never realizing she had fallen into the tender web he had been weaving for seven years.
I say it looks good, I don't accept any objection ( ̄▽ ̄ㄟ)
