【Let the evil meet their fate, and if fate doesn't take its course, I'll do it for you】
It was rumored in C City that the merchant Gu Jiangnian was a master of strategy and profit, where every move was made for gain.
But everyone at Junhua knew, Director Gu sought not only profit but also people.
To what extent?
Want money, send money; want someone, send someone; you fight, I guard the door; you brawl, I support you.
Before marriage, she was the least favored miss of the Jiang family, battling alone against her cruel stepmother and adulterous father, with her daily work: brawl! Brawl! And brawl some more!
After marriage, she was the beloved little ancestor of the Gu Mansion, pampered and protected in the palm of the master's hand, too precious to let others bully, with her daily work: cling to powerful coattails! Cling! And cling some more!
【Post-marriage daily life one】
One day, Mrs. Gu was ill and had lost her appetite. Mr. Gu canceled his appointments to return home, sat in front of her, and coldly stared, his words icy: “Didn’t you say I was a feast for the eyes? Eat!”
【Post-marriage daily life two】
Mrs. Gu found herself in a tight spot, attacked by the public, when a reporter relentlessly pursued Gu Jiangnian asking, “As Junhua’s director and C City’s wealthiest Mr. Gu, what is your opinion on Mrs. Gu's attempt to run over her own biological father?”
The man paused abruptly, his face cold as he slowly and deliberately said, “She's spoiled by me. What’s it to you?”
Without waiting for the reporter to answer, he arrogantly continued, “Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. My woman, Gu Jiangnian’s woman, is not subject to your criticism.”

The Ceo‘s Caged Melody

That evening in C City, a rare shower fell during the summer season. It came quickly and left just as swiftly. The post-rain June weather in the period of Sanfu did not lower the temperature; instead, it made the surface heat keep rising.


Ever since her last surgery, Jiang Muwan's shoulder blade wound would itch faintly on rainy days, a kind of itch deep beneath the skin, unreachable by scratching.


As evening approached and work was about to end, the rain stopped.


Jiang Muwan stood by the window, gazing at the damp sky, and let out a somewhat melancholic sigh.


"What are you sighing about?" Fu Jing came up behind her with a cup in hand, looking at her.


Jiang Muwan shrugged her shoulders and informed, "I've got to go to Mengxi Garden for dinner tonight."


"The ugly daughter-in-law facing her in-laws, huh?" Fu Jing teased with a laugh.


Jiang Muwan gave her a sidelong glance and couldn't muster a smile.


Seeing her like this, Fu Jing laughed and asked, "Don't want to go?"
