Wen Yiwan was the precious jewel her family had raised in the lap of luxury. Gentle, well-mannered, and beautiful, she held a solo cello concert at eighteen and was praised throughout Yucheng's upper society as a young lady from a distinguished family.
She was obedient and well-behaved. She couldn't even decide her own marriage, and followed her family's arrangements to marry the head of the Xie family, a man she had never met.
The eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Yanci, was powerful and utterly distinguished. A mere flick of his fingers could overturn half of Yucheng. In the world of the wealthy, marrying into the Xie family was far above Wen Yiwan's station.
Everyone said the decisive and ruthless head of the Xie family had chosen the Wen family only for the brief value they offered, and that one day he would divorce her.
After they married, Xie Yanci treated her just as everyone had said he would: with courtesy and distance.
He told her, "This is a marriage of convenience, so don't expect anything from me."
He laid down three rules: don't bare your heart, don't fall in love, and don't interfere in each other's affairs.
But every night, his demands were uncontrollable, and sometimes he lost himself in the moment...
Once it was over, however, he went right back to his usual polite distance, and she began playing the gentle, considerate Mrs. Xie in front of others.
She waited for the day he grew tired of her and handed her divorce papers.
Until one night, when dark clouds hung over the city and the rain wouldn't let up.
She broke into the study he had always forbidden her to enter and saw the walls covered in photographs of herself, along with old belongings she had lost long ago, with almost every stage of her life clearly captured...
A chill ran through her. She turned in alarm, only to fall into eyes filled with obsession and madness...
"I can't keep pretending..." He bent his knee against her leg, his laughter low and unhinged. "Baby, you can only belong to me."
"We'll never get divorced."
