Because her best friend Song Chengjia stole her boyfriend, An Ze became the laughingstock of A City's entire upper-class circle.
He looked at the photo of Song Chengjia and her boyfriend on his phone. The caption was pointed: [My boyfriend says the thing he regrets most in his life is getting together with his ex.]
Feeling miserable, An Ze went to a bar for a drink. But after just two glasses, he was drunk. When he opened his eyes, he was lying in the arms of a handsome man, his body covered in bruises.
Clutching his clothes and keeping his head bowed, An Ze said in a soft voice, "Let's just pretend this never happened, okay?"
The imposing man shook his head and lifted An Ze's chin. "No. I'm going to take responsibility for you."
Song Chengjia heard that his uncle had flown back from England, so he hurried over with his boyfriend to pay his respects.
He usually threw his family influence around and acted arrogantly, but he was particularly afraid of the uncle who was three years older than him. Even though they were practically the same age, for some reason, whenever he saw Song Wangyu's stern face, his legs turned to jelly.
Someone tipped him off that An Ze would also be attending the banquet.
Song Chengjia and his boyfriend scoffed. "Ha! That idiot thinks he's worthy of attending my uncle's banquet?"
Then Song Chengjia went around with a gift, searching for the beloved darling his uncle supposedly doted on, hoping to curry favor.
But who could have imagined that the beautiful man sitting on Song Wangyu's lap was An Ze?
Song Wangyu's expression was cold and sharp as he beckoned Song Chengjia over. "Come and meet your aunt-in-law!"

Song Wangyu was strikingly handsome, with finely defined features, a tall, slender build, and a degree from one of the world's top universities. A born elite, he had become the powerful head of his conglomerate at a young age.
He had always prided himself on being upright, but there was one thing he kept buried deep in his heart.
He had fallen in love with An Ze, his nephew Song Chengjia's boyfriend, at first sight. But because of their relationship, he had never revealed his feelings.
When he heard the two had broken up, he flew back home that very night and resorted to any means necessary to make sure they consummated their relationship.
Late on the night of the banquet, Song Wangyu, jealous, pinned An Ze to the bed and nibbled at his collarbone. He gazed into An Ze's eyes, breathing heavily, and pleaded in a hoarse, humble voice, "Tell me you love me."
