The 1990S: The Paranoid Tycoon’s Cannon-Fodder Wife Is Reborn

Bai Lu opened her eyes and found herself the powerful man's little wife. At first, he told her, “Don't provoke me. I'm not gentle.” Later, he learned gentleness from her and gave her all the tenderness of this life and the last, saying, “I can't live without you.” When they first met, the years had already left their mark at the corners of his eyes, yet the man's striking good looks were still enough to dazzle at a glance. His ruthlessness, cold-bloodedness, and heartlessness were all hidden beneath his deep, silent, icy gaze. The carefully created hypnotic setting had no effect on him whatsoever. His mind was perfectly clear as he looked at her, calm and unmoved. Bai Lu had always been the good child other parents praised: well-behaved, sensible, and obedient to her parents. After graduating, she followed the usual path and became a hypnotherapist. Had she not accidentally learned that the international case her father was handling involved Xiao Cheng, she would never have put herself in danger by secretly trying to hypnotize him, enter his memories, and extract relevant clues. She had read Xiao Cheng's file. His father was a compulsive gambler. His mother abandoned him when he was three, and not long after his father remarried, both his father and stepmother died. His younger brother later went missing in an accident, too. Xiao Cheng had clawed his way alone out of the darkness and built everything from nothing. His psychological defenses were too strong for Bai Lu to overcome. She only managed to access part of his memories before the hypnosis was unexpectedly interrupted. When they arranged to meet a second time, the plane she was on disappeared over the Bermuda Triangle. When she opened her eyes again, she had traveled back more than twenty years. She had become Xiao Cheng's young wife, who had died early... More surprising still, even a vicious dragon could be gentle, willingly becoming a thorn to protect her as her rose bloomed in all its glory.
