However, the son-in-law they carefully selected turned out to be a deeply hidden s*umbag of the highest order.
Angrily, she broke off the engagement, but the wedding invitations had already been sent out.
Xiao Yao's parents, who valued their reputation, were certain to be humiliated this time.
Unexpectedly, a "knight in shining armor" appeared, offering tens of millions in assets, just to marry Xiao Yao.
***
The crumpled wedding invitation lay discarded on the floor, a stark white symbol of a future that had dissolved as quickly as it had materialized. One week. That’s all it took to go from a hopeful blind date to a shattered engagement. Fourteen failed attempts at finding a suitable match, and then Shen Mingzhe appeared – handsome, charming, and, miraculously, accepting of her infertility. He was a second chance, a promise of stability in a life that had been marked by unexpected turns since the accident that had left her broken, both physically and emotionally. A year of cautious courtship, a year of trying to build a life, all for it to crumble in a single, devastating moment in a Lijiang photo studio. The image of Shen Mingzhe, locked in a feverish embrace with his ex-wife, was seared into her mind, a brutal awakening to the reality of his deceit.
Xiao Yao had wanted a marriage, a home, a future free from the endless cycle of blind dates and the quiet ache of her infertility. But she was not a commodity to be bartered, not a solution to someone else’s problems. With a defiant slap and a heartbroken roar, she walked away from the carefully constructed facade, leaving behind the promise of a stable, albeit loveless, marriage. She sought solace in the bottom of a glass at a bar called Missing U, a place that ironically mirrored the emptiness in her heart. But the night took an unexpected turn, leading her into the arms of a stranger, a man who would unknowingly become the architect of a new, bewildering chapter in her life. Zhuang Lingyun. He appeared out of the blue, offering a whirlwind romance and a sudden proposal, a stark contrast to the calculated deceit of her past. He was a mystery, a whirlwind of affection and unwavering devotion, and as she found herself drawn into his world, a chilling question began to emerge: was this a second chance at happiness, or was she stepping into a new, even more dangerous trap?
