Xia Yanhe has an extraordinary gift for metaphysics, yet to survive in the clutches of her bloodsucking adoptive family, she has to pretend to be blind and helpless.
The man before her, Huo Li, is the ruthless, fearsome heir of Beijing’s elite. He fingers his prayer beads and is the very living devil who might go mad at any moment and offer her up as a sacrifice to the fake heiress.
Xia Yanhe quickly makes a plan to escape: don’t look at him, don’t touch him, earn enough dirty money, then run!
What she doesn’t know is that Huo Li saw through her disguise long ago. He also recognized the mark on her palm, the one left by the girl who carried him out of a pile of corpses ten years ago.
On the night she tries to escape, Xia Yanhe has just climbed over the wall when a pair of strong hands yanks her back down.
The cold, celibate heir pins her against a gravestone in the cemetery, his eyes bloodshot, his prayer beads wound tightly around her wrist.
“You dared to carry me out of that pile of corpses back then, and now you pretend not to know me? Ruoruo, take one more step and I’ll bury everyone in this city with you.”
