Li Shiqi

Shu Hui becomes pregnant after a one-night encounter with a wealthy heir from Hong Kong. Three years later, she registers her marriage and enters the Qin family with her daughter. Marrying into a wealthy family is not a fairy tale; in reality, it comes with constant belittlement. For her daughter’s sake, Shu Hui marries into the Qin family and spends five years diligently taking care of the entire household, yet never receives a kind expression in return. Her aloof and indifferent husband shows warmth only late at night during their marital intimacy.

On the night of her engagement to her childhood sweetheart, Yun Si dreams of being claimed by the ruthless Emperor Xie Yan. Soon after, the emperor announces a decree to gather beauties from across the land. On her wedding day, Xie Yan storms in, tears apart her bridal gown, and declares, “You were already mine—how dare you marry another man?”
