That year, Duan Jialing flew to Finland for a graduation trip to celebrate finishing university.

Sha Jinyan, who had lost his sight due to illness, also flew to Finland to seek treatment and recover.

They met by chance in Finland beneath a heavy snowfall.

Sha Jinyan was generous and refined, like an immaculate bodhisattva.

Duan Jialing, meanwhile, wondered if a blind man would be easier to seduce.

She used her sincerity as bait and lured him in.

At a major auction by the banks of the Xiang River, bidders fiercely competed for a rare diamond ring.

Duan Jialing wore a plain silk qipao and was stunningly elegant.

With a graceful wave of her hand, tens of millions passed through her fingers.

The auctioneer's gavel came down, and the diamond ring sold for a record price.

At midnight, the apartment doorbell rang.

Duan Jialing opened the door in her nightdress and leaned lazily against the doorframe. "Mr. Sha, what brings you here so late?"

Sha Jinyan gazed at the beautiful woman's face and opened a velvet box. "After the auction, Miss Duan forgot to take the diamond ring that belongs to her. I brought it over."

Duan Jialing held out her hand. "Would you be so kind as to put my ring on for me, Mr. Sha?"

Sha Jinyan slipped the priceless ring onto the woman's slender ring finger, thinking with satisfaction, It'd make a perfect wedding ring.

Duan Jialing: "I'll accept your gift, Mr. Sha. You can go now."

Sha Jinyan: "Won't Miss Duan invite me inside to reminisce?"

Duan Jialing: "You and I slept together a few times in Finland. Don't tell me you're trying to cling to me, Mr. Sha."

Sha Jinyan suddenly bent down, scooped her up by the knees, and carried her straight to her bed. He took off his tie and handed it to her. "Cover my eyes."

Duan Jialing took the tie. "You were blind once. Is pretending to be blind your fetish now?"
