On the very first night Shen Wan married into the Lu family, she realized she was a joke.
Her husband, Lu Cheny an, had a dream girl in his heart. The Lu family looked down on her humble background, Shen Yunwei exploited their childhood connection to bask in everyone’s favoritism, and even the spoiled younger son of her uncle-in-law gave her a sickeningly lecherous look.
Everyone thought she was just a decorative bride the Shen family had sent over for an arranged marriage.
That was, until she casually saved a dying medicinal orchid and identified a neural signal peak that Jingyao Biotech had spent three years failing to calculate.
Lu Chenyan stared at the lab report, losing his composure for the first time. “How did you know this data?”
Shen Wan lowered her eyes and brushed the dirt from her fingertips. “It told me.”
Later, when the Lu family tried to suppress her, a national-level laboratory cleared her name. When Shen Yunwei slandered her, the whole internet saw her become a legend at Lu Chenyan’s side. When her uncle-in-law tried to lay a hand on her, she knocked him out with a single needle. And Lu Chenyan finally discovered that Tangtang, the girl who had saved him at the seaside all those years ago, had never been Shen Yunwei.
He knelt beneath the crabapple tree and begged her to come back.
Shen Wan plucked a crabapple blossom and said coolly, “Mr. Lu, my plants say your heart is racing.”
