Before the engagement banquet, her childhood sweetheart and fiancé, Qin Feibai, vanished without a trace for the sake of his one true love.
With friends and relatives gathered, she became the laughingstock of the whole city.
Lin Shu’s heart turned cold. She rushed into a nightclub in the middle of the night and stopped Qi Zhiyan, a man with immense power in the capital.
“Get engaged to me.”
The man lowered his eyes to her reddened lashes and parted his thin lips. “All right.”
They skipped the engagement and went straight to get married.
After the wedding, he gave her the priceless Ocean Star, cleared every obstacle in her way, and spoiled her so much that everyone envied her.
Outsiders said she had married a good man. Only Lin Shu knew that this was nothing more than a contract marriage, each of them getting what they wanted.
Until one night, she accidentally caught sight of a long, jagged old scar across his abdomen.
Her fingertips trembled as she asked softly, “Does it hurt?”
In ten years, no one had ever dared ask him whether he was in pain.
That scar was from the knife he had taken for her without hesitation during their senior year of high school.
But back then, her heart and eyes were filled with another man.
