[Delicate Rich Heiress x Mad Devoted Servant]
Everyone says Yi Ailin is Lou Zhiyu's pampered darling, too fragile to take care of herself.
But she knows best that this is simply how she survives.
At ten years old, she gambled with her life and volunteered herself, winning a place in the Lou family with the words, "I'm lucky for you. Pick me."
For fourteen years, she played the sweet, helpless little crybaby and basked in everyone's affection, amassing a fortune from Lou Zhiyu. No matter how recklessly she behaved outside, she never forgot who she was: a pawn her father had signed over to the Lou family in an agreement.
So she never dared dream of becoming Mrs. Lou.
She thought she could coast through life, eating and drinking for free like a happy slacker.
Who knew that one wild night would lead to a single, fateful encounter?
A pregnancy test tied her future to Lou Zhiyu's.
To keep Lou Zhiyu from "cutting her off at the root," Yi Ailin decided to "run away" with the man she had always loved.
Unfortunately, Lou Zhiyu caught them red-handed. Not only did she fail to escape, he dragged her along to watch a dramatic scene of lovers caught in the act.
Her beloved's image shattered into pieces. On a night of torrential rain, Lou Zhiyu gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye, a nearly imperceptible smile on his lips.
"Baby, forget him. Be with me."
From then on, Yi Ailin was forced into the position she feared most.
After they married, she gradually fell for him, but also discovered that behind the man's doting tenderness lay a carefully laid "inescapable net."
Everyone said Yi Ailin was lucky. One casual joke had carried her straight from obscurity to the heights of society.
But only Lou Zhiyu knew that she was his life, and his one and only cure.
[I would gladly devote myself to her, for all eternity, a thousand thousand times over.]
