When Shi Jiyue was at the end of her rope, a CEO came to her aid.
The CEO asked her to repay the favor by marrying her daughter.
(1)
Kong Xinliang hated her controlling father. She hated Shi Jiyue, whose outward gentleness and thoughtfulness concealed a forceful, obsessive nature and surprising strength.
More importantly, she hated herself, so much that she wanted to destroy herself.
(2)
Faced with the choice of earning a million a year by keeping Kong Xinliang under surveillance or using her to gain control of the Kong family assets, Shi Jiyue found another way.
She would love her: love Kong Xinliang's severed right leg, love the ruthless resolve with which she killed her father, love her mercilessness in shedding not a single tear when they broke up.
(3) Qin Zhuang and Kong Xinliang had been childhood sweethearts. When their families discovered their first stirrings of love as teenagers, Qin Zhuang gave up Kong Xinliang and married a man so as not to disobey her parents.
Years later, all she could do was watch helplessly as her former love fell for someone else.
Both are each other's first and only. Both are strong. A bittersweet romance.
