Xi Bianxia has lived her 27 years by the book.
Her one act of rebellion was impulsively marrying a man she'd only just met.
Her husband was refined and handsome, gentle and wealthy, and treated her with the utmost care.
Sadly, their happiness didn't last. Her husband died in a car accident, leaving her alone to deal with the vast fortune he'd left behind.
and his strange family.
At their first meeting, her husband's eldest brother didn't even spare her a glance. Contempt and indifference practically seeped from his bones.
Her husband's second brother was blessed with a beautiful face and unfailingly polite to her, but beneath his cultured manner lay nothing but schemes for the inheritance.
Her husband's youngest brother was young but vicious. He immediately called her a gold digger and demanded she give up her right to inherit.
Even the housekeeper, driver, and servants at the old family estate looked down on her, whether openly or behind her back, for being a widow.
All they cared about was the huge inheritance she'd received.
But little by little, she realized something was wrong.
The eldest brother, who had treated her like an insect, wrapped her in his burning embrace and shielded her from the rain with his body. He kissed the damp tips of her hair. "Bianxia, forget him. Be with me."
The coldest, most distant second brother not only clung to her like a sticky spiderweb, but even secretly kept her used personal belongings. "Xiaxia, did he do this to you too?"
The youngest brother, who used to call her a gold digger every chance he got, suddenly became unusually obedient and asked ingratiatingly, "Third Brother is dead now, so can I call you baby?"
The housekeeper, driver, bodyguards, gardener, even the maids... Everyone began watching her with a damp gaze that felt almost tangible.
Xi Bianxia was horrified.

Song Shizhang is a household name in City A. Though terminally ill, he is ruthless and decisive, with an ever-expanding business empire that devours everything in its path. He's known as a tyrant of the business world.
Whenever the financial news mentions him, it does so with dread and regret.
The servants who work for Song Shizhang also complain about his unpredictable temperament.
And yet, this impossibly awful man impulsively married a kind wife who could tolerate his flaws.
She even praised him for being considerate, gentle, and attentive??
Thankfully, fate finally intervened. Song Shizhang died in a car accident, leaving behind a fortune large enough to stir up a storm of bloodshed.
As everyone watched coldly, waiting to see Xi Bianxia crushed by the ways of the wealthy, the headlines exploded:
[Song Family's Eldest Son Kisses His Former Sister-in-Law in the Rain]
[Song Family's Second Son Falls in Love and Spends a Fortune to Make His Former Sister-in-Law Smile]
[Song Family's Fourth Son Pursues His Former Sister-in-Law, Gets Rejected, Causes a Scene, and Drinks Himself Sick]
Everyone: ???!!!

When Song Shizhang regained consciousness after the car accident, he had become some kind of bizarre monster, though even he didn't know what.
He clung to his wife like a wisp of smoke, watching her cry for him, grieve, and weep until her eyes turned red.
It hurt him, and he enjoyed it.
His wife loved him. She looked so beautiful crying for him.
Until the Song family came barging in.
He watched helplessly as the brothers he hated most went from plotting against his wife for their own ends to falling hopelessly in love with her.
Song Shizhang's eyes brimmed with cold fury, his hatred blotting out the sky.
On a stormy night, he walked through filthy puddles, cold blood dripping down his pallid cheeks.
His wife saw him and collapsed to the ground in shock.
Song Shizhang smiled with sickening delight, pressing his bloodstained cheek affectionately against hers.
"Bianxia, you can only ever be my wife."
