   Reader note

   Redemption, she's cautious yet tender, a love-hate relationship fraught with torment. He imprisons her, then leaves with a staggering 500 million in divorce settlement. Their marriage, though based on a pre-arranged child, is strained. In his dreams, he vaguely hears her crying, but he dismisses it as sleep-talking. She measures his neck with a rope, and he discovers. She says she wants to buy him a necklace—does he believe her? He binds her hands with the rope, warning her they are enemies. She feels no love, only wants a divorce, and wants to run away pregnant, packing her things. He discovers her and prevents her escape, imprisoning her. He doesn't know he's fallen in love with her; neither knows the other's feelings, yet they bear the deep-seated hatred of their families' feud. Hatred binds them together. Blinded by love, a bitter love was actually coated with the sugar of hatred. She repeatedly wanted to ask him if he loved her, but his answer was always "enemy." Hearing those two words killed her heart. Perhaps love or not didn't matter at all, but she really wanted him to abandon the generations-old feud to love her. She finally didn't want to love anymore; it was too tiring of this entanglement of love and hate. She wanted to run away, but he monitored her 24 hours a day. Her family came with a bunch of weapons to rescue her, but seeing them all injured, she had no heart to live anymore and smashed her head against a wall. Her hatred for him increased many times over. He watched her fall, his heart breaking as he watched her tears fall. The butler asked him if he had fallen in love with her, but he stubbornly insisted and sent a doctor to save her. He wanted her dead, he wanted her alive; he was completely captivated by her. She survived, and only then did he realize he loved her. Some loves are just too hard to express. She had amnesia; she saw hitting him as a reward. She forgot all past grievances and grudges, yet he told her she was his husband and even lied to her about having a child. They shared an unprecedented level of affection. In her dreams, she asked him if he loved her, and he unconsciously and tenderly replied that he did. But when he woke up and asked again, he wouldn't answer. He thought that ignoring difficult questions was enough; he believed their lives would continue happily and peacefully like this. But then she regained her memory. All the bad things he had done to her, all the hurt he had caused, that one slap had long since driven away her love. She felt a bitter pang. Love is worthless. It was their parents who initially wanted them to marry, and now it's their parents who want them to divorce. They've been urging him to divorce repeatedly, both before and after his amnesia. He already knows he's fallen in love with her, and he resolutely refuses to divorce, but it's too late. His father demands a 50 million yuan breakup fee, but he won't budge for money. However, she demands a staggering 500 million yuan to leave, and his father agrees. She finally returns to her parents' home with dignity, but he chases after her, disregarding everything, even if her family kills him, to beg her to come back. He arrives, her family thanks him, and she's completely bewildered. His father also arrives, fearing for his precious son's life. Can he win her back? Will they continue in this old predicament of deep-seated hatred and unrequited love?
