Fierce Warmth

Qiao Mian is the Qiao family's adopted daughter, and in everyone's eyes, she is a jealous, vicious murderer. Everyone keeps their distance from her. Even her closest aunt fears she will try to take her place, warning her again and again that men and women should keep apart, and shutting her out time after time. No one believes in her or loves her. They let her wither and rot in her own world. Then one day, Huo Yanchen, the pride of Nancheng and a man everyone reveres, barges recklessly into her life. He says, “Done crying? Get up. I'll help you fight back.” He also says, “Never be afraid. I'll always be right behind you.” He forcefully tears away the gloom surrounding her, claiming her utterly and spoiling her without limit. Someone challenges him: “She's just a fallen adopted daughter. How could she possibly deserve the lofty Mr. Huo?” Huo Yanchen steps in himself to clap back: “A Mian is a radiant pearl. I'm the one who's lucky to have her.”
