Three years ago, Gu Nian was forced to marry Fu Jingxing to save her younger brother's life.
In a marriage of convenience, Gu Nian lived like a ghost.
Everyone in the Fu family disliked her, her birth family treated her like a cash cow, and Fu Jingxing never even spared her a proper glance.
Her heart had gone cold, and she wanted to set him free.
An accident, one reckless night.
Fu Jingxing got a taste for her and kept coming back night after night.
But Gu Nian only wanted to run far away. Her battered heart couldn't take even the slightest hurt.
When they met again, Gu Nian was dazzling, and a whole crowd of powerful men were eager to fall at her feet.
Fu Jingxing cornered her against the wall, his eyes bloodshot: [Gu Nian, we were together for three years. Don't you feel anything at all?]
Gu Nian didn't even look at him. [So many men are chasing me. What's your name, sir?]
The man who had once been arrogant and feared by the whole city actually cried until his eyes were red.
