---- Blurb for this novel ----

Lin Zhian, who has mild social anxiety, hides in the remote mountains to avoid her parents forcing her into a marriage.

One rainy night, she saves Su Zhao.

The man is gentlemanly and easygoing, with sharp brows and bright eyes, and an air as gentle as a thin mist beside the moonlight.

While recovering, he once said, "I can do anything to repay you, Zhian."

Su Zhao looks refined and harmless, and is strikingly handsome. Driven into a corner by her parents, Lin Zhian gets an idea. Blushing shyly, she asks, "Th-then... could you marry me?"

"Of course."

*

After the wedding, Lin Zhian, whose parents have taken her savings, starts living frugally.

But one day, a procession of luxurious cars drives into the secluded valley.

Su Zhao gently puts an arm around her waist and smiles indulgently. "An'an, let's go home."

Only then does Lin Zhian realize that Su Zhao isn't a penniless knight. He's a bona fide prince.

Having inexplicably married into a wealthy family, Lin Zhian no longer has to worry about trivial matters, and things at work begin to go smoothly too.

But beneath Su Zhao's increasingly tender facade lies a twisted prison, devouring Lin Zhian's freedom like a demon.

On the eve of the storm, he kisses Lin Zhian's eyelashes obsessively and murmurs, "From now on, will you only look at me, An'an?"

Terrified, Lin Zhian hides the divorce papers behind her back and obediently says, "Okay," while wondering which day would be easiest to escape.

*

Before he met Lin Zhian, Su Zhao was cold and callous, calculating, and indifferent to what he lost or gained.

After meeting her, he learned that there could be someone who still felt far away even when separated from him by just a millimeter.

[Possessive love + rekindled romance + an unconventional groveling chase]

When Xi Yan married Bo Wangjing, his eyes were a desolate wilderness.

He was always indifferent, going through the motions of married life with her without a flicker of emotion.

There are no better four words to describe their marriage:

Together in name only.

But Xi Yan didn't care.

Later, an old acquaintance appeared by Bo Wangjing's side, always coming and going with him.

She gathered up her shattered heart and left him without hesitation.

-

Bo Wangjing, head of the Bo Group, was born a privileged heir. Proud and cold-hearted, he carried a secret pain from his youth.

To him, his life with Xi Yan had been nothing more than an ordinary, failed marriage.

Only later did Bo Wangjing learn that she was the remedy from his past that he'd searched for in vain, the one who had given him a beautiful hope of living amid the ruins.

-

After the divorce, Xi Yan forgets him completely and gets her life back on track.

Then a lawsuit throws her whole family into turmoil.

Forced to bow her head and beg the powerful man, she looks at him with empty eyes. "I thought that even if we couldn't stay together forever, we could at least part on good terms."

Half of Bo Wangjing's face is bathed in darkness. He bends down to wipe away her tears, smiling gently. "Our lives are so long. What would I do if you hated me already?"

["I am trying to touch you with the inconstancy, the danger, the failure." - Jorge Luis Borges]

*An intensely possessive, borderline obsessive head of a corporation x a clear-eyed, elegant heiress. One-on-one romance, both virgins, and each other's only partner in body and heart.

*The male lead becomes formidable later on. He's not a good man in the conventional sense.
