[Blurb]
Du Erjin grew up in the Du family, where profit came first. After her father passed away, she and her mother scrimped and schemed just to hold on to the little they had.
A young eagle eventually spreads its wings. Years later, Du Erjin was no longer the child the Du family had once used as a bargaining chip at the negotiating table. Now, everyone greeted her with a deferential "Ms. Du" or "Boss Du," and even the Du family elders treated her with respect.
Someone as outstanding as her naturally had no shortage of admirers. Strangely, though the younger generation who knew the Du family inside and out would praise Du Erjin to the skies, few of them dared make a move on her.
Don't ask. They simply couldn't afford to offend her, and they definitely couldn't afford to offend Wen Qingze.
Wen Qingze was a favored child of heaven, the "other people's kid" in the eyes of the elders, and the Wen family's heir apparent. He was also Du Erjin's former fiance... or perhaps her current one.
Ten years ago, when Du Erjin had just turned eighteen, she was forced to become engaged to Wen Qingze, a bargaining chip the Du family used to climb into the Wen family's good graces.
Five years ago, dissatisfied with Wen Qingze's excessive need to control her, Du Erjin proposed ending their relationship. Wen Qingze agreed.
Today, five years later, Du Erjin attends a private gathering among their social circle. A young, handsome celebrity bold enough to rely on his looks offers himself to her, while the others tacitly encourage her to enjoy the moment.
Wen Qingze hurries over, displeasure simmering in his handsome, refined features. "Didn't you say you were in a meeting?"
In the suffocating atmosphere that has everyone thinking something is wrong, Du Erjin remains as steady as a mountain. "It's a social gathering. Is there a problem?"
Wen Qingze looks at her in silence for a moment, then smiles gently. "No."
