Lan Ye Zheng Qiao

She was once a prisoner in his story. Three years later, she became the “god-daughter” of his sworn enemy. Tianjin, during the Republic of China era. Student Ye Nanqiao is arrested over a denunciation and faces the warlord's young marshal, Gu Beizheng, who interrogates her. She holds her head high and is not afraid of him. Intrigued, he keeps her by his side as a clerk and protects her. But she doesn't know he is already engaged. While he is away on official business in Nanjing, his fiancée, Song Ning, sells her to a brothel in Fengtian. Three years later, at the Paramount in Tianjin. In a qipao, she smiles sweetly at Old Master Zhang's side. In public, she's his god-daughter. Everyone knows the truth, though no one says it aloud. In the back alley, he grips her chin, his eyes bloodshot. She looks up, smiling with careless detachment: “What is it, General Gu? You have a lovely wife at home, yet you're out looking for fun?”
