Ruan Yao died three weeks after her ex-husband passed away.
In her previous life, everyone said she was lucky. Just after the Ruan family went bankrupt, she unexpectedly married into the Huo family and became the wife of Huo Yanzhi, heir to one of the most powerful elite families.
During their first year of marriage, he spoiled her beyond measure.
Yet she feared his almost obsessive possessiveness, and even more so his relentless desire to claim her.
Worse still, she believed malicious rumors and mistook his burning, sincere love for a calculated scheme—wrongly assuming that he was responsible for the Ruan family’s downfall.
It was not until the Huo family collapsed that he calmly signed the divorce papers, cleared every obstacle in her path, and then took his own life in prison.
When Ruan Yao opened her eyes again, she found herself two years in the past.
Her family had not gone bankrupt yet.
She was still the cherished young lady of the Ruan family.
And her future ex-husband was, at that time, someone she had no connection with at all—an existence far beyond her reach.
This time, holding tightly to her true feelings, Ruan Yao decides to go to him first.
Since he loved her so deeply in their previous life, he is not allowed to deny it in this one.
Huo Yanzhi has also been reborn.
The bone-deep betrayal of his past life still haunts him.
Since Ruan Yao feared him and despised him before, he decides to let go and give her the freedom she wanted.
He believes he can perfectly play the role of a cold and distant stranger—
until she enters his world again and again, carrying a dependence and affection he has never seen before.
He builds high walls; she finds every way through.
She moves closer step by step; he retreats again and again.
Since she is the irresistible force that draws him back even in a second life,
This time, he willingly sinks into her all over again.
