    In a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love, they initially ignore each other. After having a child, he imprisons her, but she leaves with a staggering 500 million yuan settlement. Despite being deeply in love, they are separated by a feud between their families, their love masked by a deep-seated hatred. She repeatedly asks him if he truly loves her. Perhaps she would be willing to disregard societal norms and let go of her hatred. Their relationship becomes fuel for the deep-seated animosity between their families. The more sensible one is, the less sympathy they receive. They are forced into a business marriage, and when asked to divorce, they must do so immediately. A sea of ​​hatred and love, a deep-seated blood feud, a marriage of convenience born of family feuds and entanglements, yet forced into a business marriage that blossoms into love. She had a child but no feelings for him. He kept her imprisoned, unable to go anywhere. He thought she was dreaming when she spoke in the middle of the night. She pretended to measure his neck with a rope, but when he found out, she could only say she was measuring a necklace and asked if he believed her. He then went berserk and tied her hands with a rope to make her realize that he and she were enemies. She and the child cried with tears in their eyes, and his heart ached for them, but he showed no pity. She packed her bags to escape, but he found out. He didn't know that she felt so bad about leaving. He clearly didn't like her, so why was he acting like this? His father pressured him to divorce his wife, but he refused. Her mother urged her to divorce him, and she seemed to have fallen in love with him. However, the deep-seated hatred stemming from their family feud persisted. Her relatives came to her rescue with weapons, but he was monitoring his enemies and family outside. She watched helplessly as her loved ones were injured. Unable to accept this reality, she attempted suicide by running into a wall while he wasn't looking, wanting to die with them. Without her family, she had lost all will to live. He was moved and asked the doctor to save her. The housekeeper, seeing his heartbreaking tears, wondered if he had fallen in love with her. He didn't know he had fallen in love but refused to admit it. However, she had amnesia and even forgave him for wanting to kill her. He began to understand his own heart and felt a sense of kinship with her. He treated her like a beloved person, making her happy. He never fed her before, but started feeding her even his son. He knew she was already in his heart. He realized what loving someone was like. He never knew that loving someone could make him give everything. But when she asked him if he loved her, he still stubbornly refused to admit it. He remembered his grandfather's words: "A man without love is carefree." She asked him again if he loved her, and he unconsciously and gently admitted it in his sleep. Until she regained her memory, their marriage was blocked by his father. He didn't understand why it was his parents who wanted him to marry her, and it was also his parents who wanted them to divorce. What exactly did he and she do wrong? Why ignore their love when they became victims of generations of feuds? He once thought their marriage was secure. His father offered him 50 million to leave her, but he resolutely refused. However, when he heard her demand 500 million for a breakup, his heart sank. It turned out she didn't love him; their love was nothing but a pipe dream. He thought their love could overcome everything, including generations of hatred, but she only cared about money. He was deeply hurt. For the first time, she returned to her parents' home openly. He chased after her for love, not even considering the danger to his life. He begged her to come home, but she refused. Her family thanked him, leaving her confused. Why were they thanking him when they were clearly enemies? Then his father arrived. Were the two feuding families about to fight again? Or were they setting aside their prejudices to prevent the next generation from facing all the family feuds? Could they still be lovers?
