Ji Shu was terrified of Zhou Qisheng.
Everyone had been fooled by his handsome face. Only Ji Shu knew he was a depraved scoundrel, a beast in a gentleman's clothing.
No matter how much she refused or how clearly she showed her disgust, he always used despicable methods to make her give in.
After several failed attempts to escape, she finally couldn't take it anymore. She slapped him across the face, trembling with rage. "Zhou Qisheng, are you some kind of dog that goes into heat anywhere and everywhere?!"
The bright red handprint stood out against the man's pale face, making his suit look all the more ridiculous.
But he only gave her a restrained smile, took her hand with great restraint, and bent down to put her fallen high heel back on. "Be good. Don't make a fuss."

As the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Qisheng wielded power with a ruthlessness that made people wary. He was calculating and vindictive, and no one dared provoke him.
Yet a man like him was fixated on the spoiled young lady of the Ji family.
He used his domineering methods to make Ji Shu his own and married her in a flash.
Rumor had it that on the day of the wedding, the bride had sobbed her heart out in the dressing room. Someone heard a sharp slap from inside, followed by, "Zhou Qisheng, I hate you!"

No one knew that years ago, on a snowy night, Zhou Qisheng had been nothing more than a country boy newly brought back from the countryside.
Someone shoved him down into the snow. Covered in injuries, he endured the crowd's ridicule until someone held out a hand to him. "Hey, want me to help you up?"
He recognized her as the spoiled, headstrong young lady of the Ji family.
