Rumor had it that Serena Thompson, the adopted daughter of the Gu family, had been hopelessly in love with the infamous Ninth Master Lu of the capital for years. Yet not only did he despise her, he even sent her to prison for five excruciating years—all to protect the woman who truly held his heart.
But no one expected that when the Ninth Master finally married, his bride wasn’t his beloved "white moonlight." Instead, it was Serena, the woman with a criminal record!
The crowd eagerly gathered, anticipating the spectacle of how the ruthless Ninth Master would humiliate this shameless, clingy woman. Yet on the wedding day, the bride vanished without a trace.
Word spread that the Ninth Master flew into a thunderous rage, issuing a nationwide manhunt.
The day she was caught, Tanner Brooks pinned her beneath him, his eyes burning crimson as he growled, "I’ll ask you one last time—will you marry me or not?"
