Xie Zhaoming did two extraordinary things in his life.
The first one was that he almost lost his life in the hunting ground to save Lin Qinghe, a stranger.
The second thing was to agree to a political marriage with Gu Yanzhi, a powerful official of the aristocratic family.
Xie Zhaoming thought that this marriage was just about getting what they wanted, a pair of beautiful people who shared the same bed but had different dreams. Her whole life would be buried in the wind and rain of the house and the chess game in the court.
Until... That thunderstorm night that she feared the most, he held her in his arms amidst the lightning and said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
That day, after she met Lin Qing and Yu Zhong, he pulled her into the hot spring pool in public. There was an undercurrent in his eyes that she couldn't understand: "Mrs. Gu, where is your sense of propriety?"
The man she thought was impeccable, when her brother showed extraordinary concern for her, he crushed the white jade ring in his hand.
There's something wrong with Mr. Gu...
When the fog clears, the truth becomes clear.
She suddenly realized that the marriage that started as a transaction had already become his deep love every step of the way.
