Before she turned eighteen, Xin Lian's life was like a duckweed drifting without direction, moving from one relative's home to another, over and over. So when she learned she had a fiance, she felt nervous yet full of hope. Would she finally have a home of her own in the future?
Unfortunately, her fiance was in love with someone else. Not only did he dislike her, he hated her, believing she had broken them up.
For the first time, Xin Lian had a room of her own, where no one disturbed her. It was so clean and comfortable that she did not dare, nor want, to resist. She treasured this hard-won home.
So when her fiance spoke cruelly to her, she kept quiet.
When she saw a woman sitting in her fiance's car, she lowered her eyes and pretended not to notice.
When another woman, claiming to be her fiance's girlfriend, came to tell her she was carrying his child, Xin Lian began to feel a little lost.

His nephew was engaged. He had heard that the fiancee was an eighteen-year-old boy from the countryside, probably ignorant and ill-mannered.
Otherwise, why would he have moved in just days before the engagement?
Then, a few days later, Qin Songsheng returned home and met his nephew's fiancee.
Dressed in white, with a slender neck, he was as fresh and graceful as a lotus in bloom.
Qin Songsheng could not help looking at him again and again.
A breeze stirred, bringing a subtle fragrance. The young man walked up to him and softly said, "Hello, Uncle."
It was a sweltering summer day, and cicadas shrilled outside.
Qin Songsheng suddenly snapped out of it.
-
After he returned home, Qin Songsheng thought he must be ill.
Otherwise, why would he think about his nephew's fiancee day and night, and even have such lewd dreams about him?
When the thought of stealing his nephew's partner crossed his mind, Qin Songsheng began to question his own self-control and sense of morality for the first time.
But he knew his nephew was frivolous and immature, with little talent for business. He was not someone anyone should entrust their life to.
He was the one who had it wrong. His nephew was the one who was unworthy.
So what if they were married?
His wife had only temporarily become someone else's wife, and besides, they were only engaged.
-
On one night after another, when her fiance left her behind,
Xin Lian accepted the olive branch offered by her fiance's uncle and got into his car of her own accord.
This time, she called him, "Mr. Qin."
