Qiao Li was reborn one day before her boyfriend found out she was planning to run away with someone else.
Her boyfriend was the young master of the capital's elite, whom she'd deceived into coming home with her after he lost his memory.
She'd tricked him into serving her hand and foot like a workhorse.
Qiao Li only wanted to make some money. She hadn't meant to risk her life.
At the end of her previous life, someone strangled her to death with a rope.
This time, she was determined not to repeat her mistakes.
To his face, she promised, "I want us to build a life together."
Behind his back, she started saving money and planning her escape.
Nothing mattered more than her life.

From the first moment Wen Yujing saw Qiao Li, he knew she was the wife fate had chosen for him.
He loved her dearly, so he indulged her in everything.
His girlfriend was still young, and it was only natural for her to make mistakes. He would forgive every one of Qiao Li's lies.
Even after regaining his memory, he didn't blame her. He said, "Qiaoqiao just wants a better life. I happen to be able to give her what she wants. That's not deception, that's two people choosing each other."

The night before she planned to take the money and run,
Qiao Li found her suitcase filled with property deeds, gold jewelry, and share transfer agreements, all placed there by Wen Yujing.
Wen Yujing, out of control, pinned Qiao Li against the wall. "You said we'd get married once we'd saved enough for a down payment. I'm giving you everything I own. Please take me with you too."
