[Possessive love + devoted only to each other + a long road to winning her back]
After Lin Chuwan’s father gets into trouble, she and her brother take refuge with the Duke’s household.
The Duke’s heir, Lu Jingxuan, is a refined gentleman of noble bearing. He’s also deeply loyal to his friends and looks after them with great care.
Lin Chuwan is grateful to him and holds him in high regard.
Everyone says Lu Jingxuan is a distinguished scholar, above all worldly desires, and never has a woman by his side.
But where no one can see, this noble gentleman presses her into his arms again and again. His dark eyes redden as he kisses her rosy lips hard, wearing her down over and over until she can barely stand...
Lin Chuwan can only endure it,
because she was the one who seduced him in the first place.
/
Lu Jingxuan has no interest in romance and has no plans to marry.
Until a secret report reveals that the sweet, well-behaved younger sister of his friend, who has always kept her distance from him, is actually an impostor using someone else’s name!
He should have her arrested at once and thrown in jail!
Instead, Lu Jingxuan slowly curls his lips into a smile.
He watches as she obediently walks straight into the trap he has carefully laid for her.

Later, the boat Lin Chuwan is traveling on sinks in the middle of the river.
Lu Jingxuan witnesses it with his own eyes and is consumed by grief.
In a remote little town, Lin Chuwan, having escaped alive, is about to get married.
On her wedding day, she lifts her veil with joyful excitement,
only to meet a man’s dark, terrifying eyes. Radiating fury, he advances toward her step by step in the flickering candlelight. His cold hand grips her trembling face, and his voice sounds like a ghost’s:
“Chuwan, didn’t you say you’d be mine for the rest of your life? So who are you marrying now?”
