Huo Yanting had always been her ultimate goal. She felt like she was born to fulfill the dream of marrying him, and had been working toward it ever since.
She started learning piano in elementary school, practiced dancing, and dabbled in painting, calligraphy, poetry, and chess. Yet, all her efforts were overshadowed by Lin Banxia, who she thought was inferior to her in every way.
How could she be willing to accept this? How could she endure such cruel truth and devastating blows?
"Mr. Huo, why are you here so late?" Lin Kunhuai immediately bent over respectfully and stepped forward to greet him.
Lin Banxia was stunned as well. Especially at the very moment Huo Yanting suddenly appeared, she felt as though her heart had abruptly stopped.
His voice, echoing through the cool night, cut through her pain and despair like sunlight suddenly breaking through the clouds, bringing comfort and warmth to her.
The feeling of having someone stand up for her—why did it feel so good?
