Everyone said Ji Shileng was lucky. An orphan, proposed to by Shang Jianli and welcomed into one of the Empire’s most prestigious families.
But the marriage everyone envied ended with him drifting in a freezing river for three days and three nights.
When his sister finally found him, she asked through her tears:
“What did marrying above your station ever get you? Look at what you’ve become.”
Ji Shileng let out a hoarse laugh.
“Sis, I’m done reaching for someone above me. I was already standing at the summit. Why did I ever think I needed to climb higher?”
The world knew him only as the spouse the Empire’s youngest general kept “so carefully protected.” No one knew he was also the youngest son of the powerful Ji family of the Federation—a darling cherished by his entire family since childhood.
When they met again, Shang Jianli couldn’t tear his eyes away.
“Mr. Ji, you look very much like someone I once knew.”
Ji Shileng merely smiled.
“Your former wife? But didn’t he… die?”
Some people only learn to cherish someone after losing them. Unfortunately, by the time Shang Jianli wanted him back, Ji Shileng had no intention of looking back.
