Wenwen was poor, ugly, and very fat.

She had a little secret.

She had loved someone for ten whole years.

Ying Que was everything people imagined their ideal beloved to be.

Noble and composed, exceptionally capable, and breathtakingly beautiful.

Though he was the future head of the Ying family, he had no taste for worldly pleasures. Beneath his cool exterior was a gentle, pure heart still like a boy's.

Ying Que was always the perfect gentleman.

But toward Wenwen, he was cruel and vicious.

From middle school through college, Wenwen repeatedly humbled herself to please him, only to be humiliated and despised time and again.

And even later on,

Wenwen nearly lost her life saving Ying Que.

Yet he called her a gold-digging vixen who was trying to seduce his younger brother.

Wenwen let herself love Ying Que for ten years, and no more.

When that period was over, Wenwen slimmed back down to a healthy weight. With her beauty and singing voice, she made a fortune in show business.

She was just about to escape her suffocating family and quietly settle abroad.

Then she discovered that Ying Que had suddenly gone mad.

It was as if the devil had shed his human skin. Overnight, he used every filthy trick in a capitalist's playbook to block Wenwen from starting a new life.

One late night,

while Wenwen was forced to endure Ying Que's kiss, a hot, glistening tear fell into her eye.

She raised her eyes, distracted.

Now a ruthless, calculating head of the family, he clutched the hem of her skirt with trembling fingers and wept silently.

Wenwen waited a long while for him to speak. Impatient, she brushed his hand away and prepared to leave.

The next second, she heard his voice, desperate and aggrieved:

"You don't love me anymore."

You can't even focus when you kiss me.
