Song Chun met a man at her fiancé's funeral.
In a sharply tailored black suit, he was tall and handsome, with cool, striking features and a taciturn manner: Yan Sicí, her fiancé's college roommate.
He was also a rising star whom everyone in Jiangcheng's elite circles tried to curry favor with.
When the funeral ended, Song Chun stood at the door to see the guests out.
One by one, old acquaintances came up to shake her hand and offer their condolences.
When it was the man's turn, he silently held out his hand, his expression so indifferent he might have been a stranger.
Some people guessed Song Chun had offended Yan Sicí.
-
The day she was driven out of the Song family, a heavy rain fell.
Song Chun dragged her suitcase and leaned against a flowering crabapple tree, looking utterly miserable.
A black luxury car pulled over, crushing petals beneath its wheels.
The window lowered halfway. In the dim light, the man's features were breathtakingly handsome. He glanced at her. "Need a ride?"
-
Song Chun never expected Yan Sicí to propose to her.
After all, his tone was strictly businesslike: "Song Chun, I can give you what you want. And I happen to need a wife."
They each got what they needed.
She needed his money, and he needed her to deal with his family.
After they married, Song Chun cautiously played the role of someone who was simply sharing a life with him, never crossing any boundaries.
Even when gossip reporters claimed he loved someone else, she smiled casually before he could explain. "I understand."
That night, Yan Sicí got so drunk that when he spoke beside her ear, his voice was as hoarse as if sand had scraped it raw. "Song Chun, you have no heart."
-
Song Chun didn't understand, until she found the diary Yan Sicí had kept in college:
"She cried, and rain fell in my heart too."
The date was the day she had seen her fiancé cheating, then hidden behind a tree to cry.
