When Shen Zhao woke up, her memories were stuck at age eighteen, the year she and her sworn enemy, Lu Zhiheng, had completely fallen out.
Half-asleep, she reached for her phone. The pinned conversation at the top was unmistakably from him, even though they had been estranged for years: [Honey, I'm downstairs]
Shen Zhao was completely stunned.
They'd been mortal enemies back then. How could they have gotten married?
Lu Zhiheng walked in, impeccably dressed in a suit, his features cool and composed. He softly called her "Honey."
He said she'd been the one to ask him to marry her, that she'd loved him so much she'd been unable to live without him.
Shen Zhao: Do you really expect me to believe that?
But the evidence was right there, one piece after another.
The marriage certificate was real. The recording of her proposal was real. Everything in the house bore her mark.
She couldn't help wavering. Had she really loved him that much before she lost her memory?
Then she opened the basement door.
Her photos covered the walls. The one at the front was the last photo taken before the car accident.
In it, her eyes were red, and she clutched a divorce agreement tightly in her hands.
Her sealed memories came rushing back.
Warm breath brushed the back of her ear as Lu Zhiheng spoke in a chilling voice. "Honey, are you trying to abandon your poor husband again?"
