On a rainy night, Wen Nian clutched the blood-stained wedding ring and signed the most humiliating contract on the top floor of the Gu Group.
——She is going to marry the son of her mother's murderer.
Financial upstart Gu Chengzhou bought out her life with a RMB 300 million merger deal. He pinned an iris brooch to her heart in front of people to show affection, but behind the scenes he held her allergy diagnosis certificate and sneered: "The way Miss Wen suffocated on rose pollen excites me more than the design draft." Everyone said that the youngest daughter of the Wen family is the most expensive canary in Lujiazui.
But she had already seen through the venom boiling under his gentle skin.
When he pinched her burned collarbone at midnight and demanded details about the fire, when he deliberately set the meeting on the anniversary of his mother's death, when the antidepressant bottle in his suit pocket rolled down the bedside - Wen Nian finally put the utility knife to his Adam's apple: "When Mr. Gu fell asleep listening to the fire alarm recording every night, did he dream of my mother's burnt hands?"
Lies are hotter than wedding rings. The starry sky lollipop designed by Gu Chengzhou has a microchip hidden in it, and a recorder is sewn into the buckle of Wen Nian's cheongsam. They exchanged poisonous kisses behind the cameras of financial reporters, and competed for photos of the fire scene in the secret room of a century-old house, until the elevator plummeted on a typhoon night, and when he protected her and the mirror cracked, he revealed a flame-shaped scar on his waist that was exactly the same as hers.
There was a fire in the mall eighteen years ago, the boy and the comatose girl cried out for help, the encrypted Sub Rosa clauses in the bloody agreement, the never-fading sapphire iris in the design draft... When the truth poured out with the torrential rain, this rich game that started with lies was already filled with bloody sincerity.
"Supplementary Clause 7 of the contract." Gu Chengzhou put out the burning cigarette to his heart and kissed away the tears at the end of her eyes in the firelight, "Party B has the right to demand that Party A spend the rest of his life repaying the original sin of the arsonist's son."
Intention: love
