[A ray of warmth heals a powerful man starved of love] [A devoted, exclusive couple] [Happy ending]
In her previous life, Xiang Nuan was foolish and painfully humble.
To escape poverty with her younger brother, she knew Gu Han was the illegitimate son of a top-tier wealthy family hiding in their small town, yet she swallowed her pride and spent every day fawning over him, giving him all her tenderness.
She thought that sincere devotion would earn her a lifetime of security.
In the end, all she got was his accusation that she had ulterior motives, before he coldly walked away.
Her love rival came seeking revenge. Her brother’s legs were broken, and she was disfigured. At last, in despair, she plunged from a building and died on the street.
Then she was reborn.
Looking at the gloomy man before her, indifferently accepting her attentions, Xiang Nuan finally came to her senses. She wanted to slap her former self awake.
A lovesick fool? Not a chance.
Gu Han is a billionaire, generous with his money, and grateful to those who help him?
Fine.
Then she’d treat him like a top-tier VIP client who paid for her services.
Three proper meals a day, medicine applied on schedule, five-star service, and firm boundaries.
All she wanted was to wait for him to recover and leave, then protect her brother and live peacefully, with nothing more between them.
Once, she’d had eyes only for him, yielding at every turn, and all she got was a body covered in scars.
Now she was polite and considerate, wanting nothing from him, and somehow that made his heart itch with longing.
Gu Han, who was used to her passionate devotion, was thrown into a panic.
She didn’t cling to him or wait for him. She even wished he’d leave sooner.
From then on, the aloof, gloomy tycoon fell hard, convincing himself step by step and becoming hopelessly addicted to her.
Later, Gu Han held power over the entire city and commanded untold riches, yet he humbly stayed by her side, red-eyed and desperately refusing to let go.
“Xiang Nuan, don’t call it even. My money, my person, my whole future, it’s all yours.”
I’ve seen the deepest darkness. That’s exactly why I want even more to hold on to that ray of light.
