Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Shu Yanan was forced into an arranged marriage, but during her premarital medical exam, she ran into Shen Sijin, her ex-boyfriend who had disappeared five years ago. He was a stern, cold surgeon and the heir to a top-tier family. Holding her medical report, he gave a scornful laugh. “Lying to get married? Why not ask me to cover for you?” She struggled under the pressure of her parasitic family and the contempt of her fiancé’s relatives, while Shen Sijin’s relentless pursuit turned her life upside down. At a birthday banquet, she discovered that he was her fiancé’s uncle. His smile was chilling. “Instead of marrying him, why not be my woman?” One power struggle and family scheme after another followed. Shu Yanan transformed from a timid preschool teacher into a rising business star, only to be framed by her first love and betrayed by those closest to her. Shen Sijin protected her, but also exposed the truth behind his sudden disappearance all those years ago. When gambling debts, an abduction, and the mystery of her birth erupted all at once, she shattered the shackles of fate with her own hands. He pressed his palm against hers, his voice tender. “I’ll repay your debts, and I’ll take charge of the rest of your life.”
