But when her family was on the verge of bankruptcy, she begged everyone for help, but no one was willing to lend a hand. She placed her last hope in him, only to hear him say, "What girlfriend?

Unexpectedly, four years later, they met again in this city. He had shed his boyish appearance; the carefree earring was gone, replaced by the aura of a business elite.

    "A ring? It's worthless." Those three simple words, "worthless," felt like a sledgehammer, almost crushing Jiang Hanyin's flesh. It truly wasn't valuable; it wasn't a designer brand, nor was it high-end jewelry. It was simply a ring they designed together during their passionate courtship, when he held her hand. His ring was hand-carved by Jiang Hanyin herself. The outside was a plain band. Inside, she had painstakingly carved a protective charm, stroke by stroke, each character a tiny mark, leaving her hand covered in bloody welts while trying to engrave the few millimeter-sized letters "HYTL." Before their marriage, Gu Tinglan loved her so much, holding her delicate hands and feeling heartache for her for countless hours… But after marriage… Jiang Hanyin sighed softly. Men, their hearts change faster than the weather.
