[A Hong Kong City heiress who thinks she's straight VS a frail, sickly, disabled black lotus]
Synopsis: Just as He Yiwan was about to marry her childhood sweetheart, Fei Liang, her fiance was suddenly exposed in a shocking scandal. Fei Liang had a lover on the side, and that lover was a man.
As the only daughter of the richest family in Hong Kong City, He Yiwan couldn't stomach being treated this way. In a fit of anger, she flew from Hong Kong City to the capital and went alone to the Fei family's old residence.
The He and Fei families had been close for generations. Fei Liang's father felt terrible about what had happened to his future daughter-in-law. As long as the He family didn't call off the wedding, the Fei family would accept any conditions they proposed.
He Yiwan: "I'm not calling off the wedding."
Fei Liang's father let out a long breath of relief. "Yiwan, as long as you don't call off the wedding, that's all that matters. Tell us what you want, and the Fei family won't bargain over it."
He Yiwan curled her lip in a mocking smile. "My young mistress won't take something that's been dirtied."
Fei Liang's father's mouth twitched. "..."
He Yiwan's smile faded as she spoke plainly. "I want to marry someone else."
Fei Liang's father looked confused. "Someone else? The Fei family only has one son. We can't replace him."
He Yiwan glanced around the hall, then smiled at the woman sitting in a wheelchair and pointed at her. "I want her! I want Sister Fei."
Fei Liang's father's eyes nearly popped out. "How could that work? How can two women be together?!"
He Yiwan shrugged indifferently and asked with a smirk, "What's the problem? Your son is already into men."
Fei Liang's mother said, "Yiwan, Fanxi has been frail and sickly since she was little, and she has trouble walking. We've kept her by our side all these years. We never thought she'd marry, because we were afraid her husband's family would look down on her..."
He Yiwan: "Don't worry, Auntie. I'll take good care of Sister Fei."
"Sister Fei, will you marry me?"
Fei Fanxi slowly raised her eyes. Her amber gaze, like polished jade, fixed on He Yiwan. She nodded and uttered a single word.
"Yes."
As the wedding date drew near, Fei Fanxi went to her father with a demand: she wanted the position of vice president at the company. Otherwise, she would call off the wedding. With the ceremony so close, Fei Liang's father had no choice but to agree to his daughter's demand.
On their wedding night, He Yiwan was so drunk that she didn't return to the bridal chamber. Instead, she slept alone in the study, clutching a photograph of herself and Fei Liang.
Jealousy stirred in Fei Fanxi's heart. With a cold expression, she took the photo frame from He Yiwan's arms.
"Since you love sleeping in the study so much, you can sleep here tonight."
After leaving those words behind, Fei Fanxi wheeled herself out of the study. The first thing she did after returning to her bedroom was burn the photograph.
Everyone thought Fei Fanxi had been forced to marry into the He family. Only Fei Fanxi knew why she had agreed to this absurd marriage. She had been secretly in love with He Yiwan since childhood, the woman who was supposed to become her sister-in-law.
