Shen Mian and Lu Yanshu had been married for three years when she finally became pregnant, only to learn that her husband had brought home his ex-girlfriend and her child.
She had thought that in a marriage arranged between their families, if she took the initiative and gave enough, she would eventually warm his heart. She never imagined reality would deal her such a cruel blow.
She hid her pregnancy and decided to leave the father but keep the child. She had loved him openly, and she left just as decisively.
The famously aloof Mr. Lu thought that after the divorce, Shen Mian would learn her lesson. As a pampered bird in a gilded cage, she would sooner or later come crying back once she no longer had his protection.
He never expected her to emerge as a genius in the world of scientific research, codenamed M, and the powerful figure behind the scenes he had been trying to partner with all along.
His only comment: “I regret it now. I regret it so much.”
He dropped his lofty airs and shattered his cold facade, clearing every obstacle in her way.
Even when she rekindled an old flame with her former senior, he swallowed his bitterness, offering his congratulations while tears streamed down his heart.
He had loved her throughout his youth, yet was willing to quietly let her be happy.
But Shen Mian only glanced at him with disdain. “Lu Yanshu, love that comes too late is worth less than grass.”
Later, Shen Mian’s daughter got a loyal bodyguard. He fought for her, stood up for her, and even gave her money to spend.
The little girl exclaimed, “Mom, Uncle Lu says he’d give his life for us. Does he like you?”
