A Wild Rose in His Arms: Second Master Has Been Plotting This for a Long Time

[Long-Standing Scheme + The Powerful One Bows His Head] [1v1 | Both Pure]

After her father was framed, Wen Zhiwu fell overnight from the clouds into the mire.

The entire imperial capital watched, wondering whose garden this proud, thorny rose would end up in.

With nowhere else to turn, her best friend personally pushed her toward the second master of the Si family, Si Linyuan, whose power ruled the capital and whom no one dared provoke.

Three years passed in a flash.

When they met again, it was at her engagement party.

A cute little boy stood beside Wen Zhiwu.

Si Linyuan pinned her against the door, dark currents churning in his eyes. "Wen Zhiwu, you still owe me eighty million?"

"Second Master, I've already paid off what I owed you back then."

"Did you forget that you hurt me three years ago? You're responsible for making me well again."

"Si Linyuan, have you no shame? If you're sick, go see a doctor. I don't know how to treat you."

"We have to try. Only you can try."

On her wedding day,

Second Master suddenly appeared.

He stepped forward and wrapped an arm around her waist, his fingertips gently tracing the faint mark on her collarbone.

"Wen Zhiwu, with my mark on you... who do you think you can marry?"

The proud Second Master bowed his head and fell, determined to pluck the one thorny rose meant only for him.
