   Highly recommend this book! The author's writing is excellent, and it's so heart-wrenching it'll break your heart 😢. An excerpt from the original text: The arrogant and unruly second young master of the Zhou family, who never knelt before heaven or earth, had never knelt before anyone in his life. He lowered his long, bent legs, his precious knees now resting on the cold ground, kneeling before the woman he loved most, like the most devout prisoner, confessing his sins to her. "I was wrong, I was utterly foolish, I clearly had your love but I lost it." He pressed his forehead against Lin Yuxi's soft fingers, pleading in a hoarse voice, "Lin Yuxi, can you love me one more time?"
