*The full novel is complete!! It has undergone major revisions. The version on Jinjiang is definitive!!

Lan Niang was bought by the Gu family for half a tael of silver as a child bride.

After both of the Gu parents died of illness, Lan Niang earned money with her own hands to support Gu Tingyun's studies, all for his promise: "I will never let you down."

Later, he came first in the palace exam and married the daughter of the prime minister. He knelt before her and begged her to forgive him.

Lan Niang endured the heart-wrenching pain and nodded through her tears.

But one year later,

Gu Tingyun knelt by her bed once more and held her cold hand.

He begged her to open her eyes and look at him, begged her not to leave him alone.

The now powerful Lord Gu wept bitterly like a child.

Afterward, he grew cruel and ruthless, destroying the prime minister's family with his own hands and forcing the prime minister's daughter to shave her head and become a nun.

But he could never find his A Lan again...

When Gu Tingyun turned thirty, he became Lord Gu, second only to The Outcast.

Yet he had neither wife nor children, his hair was white, and no one had ever seen him smile.

Then one day, he spotted a familiar figure fleetingly on the street below from atop the city gate tower, and leaped down without hesitation.
