① At the age of twenty, Ji Xingchen entered into a marriage alliance with the eldest son of the Huo family for her younger sister's sake.

Rumor had it that the reclusive eldest grandson of the Huo family suffered from a hidden illness. No well-bred young lady in Luoshi was willing to marry him, so in the end he had to strike a deal with the daughter of a fallen family.

On her wedding day, Ji Xingchen was fortunate enough to see him for herself: Huo Rong was breathtakingly handsome, cool and elegant.

Ji Xingchen stared, spellbound, until a man's voice came from above her head. "Have you seen enough?"

② Ji Xingchen became famous far and wide for being utterly devoted to her husband, her warm heart flying straight into the flames.

Until she discovered that what everyone called true love was just a substitute, and what they called a life together was just exploitation.

On a night of early frost, Ji Xingchen fled the Huo residence, determined to bury the past for good.

③ Years later, they met again in Tongcheng.

The eldest son of the Huo family was now Tongcheng's most eligible bachelor. Even with a little tagalong in tow, women from all walks of life still fell over themselves to pursue him.

When this reached Ji Xingchen, she sneered. "I'm not interested in being Mrs. Huo. That little tagalong is ten thousand times cuter than he is."

Later, someone saw the usually composed eldest son of the Huo family dead drunk over a woman, his tie loose and his eyes bloodshot as he held her captive in his arms.

Ji Xingchen pressed a hand to his chest and mocked him. "Young Master Huo, you kissed someone you shouldn't have. How are you going to explain that to your wife when you get home?"

Nearly a thousand days and nights apart, and all his anger had turned into helpless tenderness.

Huo Rong gazed at her delicate face and pleaded softly, "Xingchen, come home with me, okay..."

Ji Xingchen's expression was cold. "You once insisted that you couldn't live without me. So why are you acting so devoted now?"

The night sky holds the stars, and I have you.
