[Older Man/Younger Woman] [Angst] [Both Chaste] [Romantic Rivals] [Happy Ending]
Before Ji Ya died, she left a will. To her shock, all her assets went to Qiao Zhenghong, the husband who had married into her family.
Not long afterward, the man brought home his illegitimate son and smiled at her. "This is your younger brother."
She was sent abroad under the pretext of "seeing the world," but in reality, she was dumped in a broken-down city and left to fend for herself.
When she had nowhere else to turn, she met Song Shangjing.
With half a cigarette between his fingers, the man asked nonchalantly, "How about coming back to Beijing with me?"
He paid for her to finish high school, gave her a place to live, and poured countless resources into her. When she asked why, he simply said, "So you'll look after me when I'm old."
She was like a white fox with hidden claws. She used his influence, learned his composure, and climbed her way back up, step by step, until she reclaimed her mother's assets from the Qiao family.
But the bullet he took for her left her completely shaken.
She was afraid this bond, which had begun with her using him, would drag him down to hell with her in the end.
She left decisively, without looking back.
In Budapest, he chased after her with a high fever and gritted out,
"I'll let you go only if I'm dead."
