Shen Ruowei, a struggling young extra with no one to rely on after graduating, happened to meet a handsome man on set. When his sharp, phoenix-shaped eyes turned toward her, she smiled and broke off half her bread to give him.
She thought they would only ever meet that once, but the man first became her friend, then her neighbor, and soon they were together day and night.
But could someone tell her why the look in his eyes was growing more and more intense, as if... he were a wolf that had its prey in its sights?
Shen Ruowei felt as though she had fallen into a trap.
When she realized the man’s feelings were genuine, the flustered little rabbit wanted nothing more than to turn tail and run. Yet step by step, she walked into the cage he had woven with his love.
She thought she might be falling for him...
Unexpectedly, a carefully plotted scheme shattered everything. Shen Ruowei was plunged into a storm of public opinion and fell into an abyss, while the man’s true identity came to light: Yu Yi, the second young master of A City’s wealthy Yu family.
News that Yu Yi was to enter an arranged marriage snapped the last thread holding her back. Shen Ruowei decisively blocked Yu Yi everywhere and became a stranger to him.
At a business gala several years later, Shen Ruowei, now a Best Actress, arrived as an invited guest with a male companion. Her delicate face was radiant and charming, and her custom-made evening gown accentuated her graceful figure, drawing the eyes of many men present.
But in the blink of an eye, Shen Ruowei was pinned in an empty corner. She struggled and looked up, meeting the man’s anger-filled gaze. In the dim light, Yu Yi stared at Shen Ruowei’s exposed, pale skin, his voice low as he asked, “Who is that man?”
Shen Ruowei was pushed to the brink and deliberately answered spitefully, “My boyfriend.”
The man gave a mocking laugh. He raised a hand and gripped Shen Ruowei’s chin, his thumb brushing her tender red lips. His magnetic voice sounded beside her ear, like a devil whispering:
“I’ve watched over you all these years. How come I never knew when you got a boyfriend?”
