Three years ago, Su Wantang was the cherished rose in Huo Yanchen’s life. He took in the helpless, lonely girl and raised her with care, spoiling her endlessly. Everyone in Beicheng knew that the cold-faced Mr. Huo was gentle only with her.
But a business marriage arranged between their families shattered all that tenderness. She was cut out of his life completely. She begged him for one night, only to be humiliated by Grandma Huo, who bluntly told her she was nothing but Huo Yanchen’s kept plaything. With her heart reduced to ashes, Su Wantang burned away her past in the pouring rain and vanished without a trace. Everyone thought she was dead.
Three years later, Su Tang, a partner at a top law firm, makes a forceful return to Beicheng. Her first target is the Huo Group. At the negotiating table, she wears a sharp, composed suit. Her features are unchanged, but all warmth has given way to distance and indifference as she closes in on Huo Yanchen for revenge.
Huo Yanchen grows suspicious of her identity. Though he knows she has come with ill intentions, he indulges her at every turn and even risks his life to protect her when danger strikes. As they clash day after day, Su Wantang begins to sense the deep love and hidden reasons behind his actions, and she is pulled back and forth between love and hate. What she doesn’t know is that they are both hiding secrets: she has returned for revenge with a child no one knows about, and the ruthless marriage arrangement from years ago concealed a truth no one ever learned.
