Shen Li never imagined that on the very first night after reuniting with Zhou Jingchen, whom she hadn’t seen in thirteen years, they would end up in bed together.

When she woke up, she thought it had all been a dream. But Zhou Jingchen sent her a whole set of medical checkup results, credit reports, proof that he was unmarried and single, and a list of his assets.

He even said, “Whatever catches your eye, I’ll transfer it all into your name before we marry.”

Shen Li was completely stunned.

Was Zhou Jingchen proposing to her?

The Zhou family was a prominent clan with generations of officials and scholars. His mother presided over a vast business empire, yet Zhou Jingchen had made it on his own, without relying on either parent. At a young age, he was already the respected chief engineer at an aerospace technology research institute.

And what about her?

Her father had died young, her mother had remarried, and she was living under someone else’s roof.

Even with such a huge difference in their circumstances, Shen Li gritted her teeth and married him.

After all, what woman in the world could turn down a handsome, well-built, wealthy man who had wanted to marry her and bring her home for more than a decade?

After the wedding, she braced herself for her in-laws to dislike her, or even try to break them up.

But to her surprise, they not only welcomed her with open arms, they also helped her rise to success every step of the way.

Her mother-in-law said, “A Li, go after your career without holding back. If anyone dares to make things difficult for you, I’ll deal with them myself.”

Her father-in-law said, “Xiao Li, if Jingchen ever bullies you, just tell me. I’ll teach him a lesson.”
