The mighty official, Huo Jue, wields immense influence.
People who sent him money, jewels, and various rare items wanted to cross his threshold.
Of course, some also sent him women.

One day, someone happily presented him with a married woman, “It’s said that this woman was once engaged to the Lord. Later, when the Lord’s family fell into misfortune, she married someone else. Now she’s sent to the Lord. Lord can do as he pleases.”
Everyone thought that the woman who had abandoned Huo Jue would meet a bad end in his hands.

No one knew that ten years ago, a girl traveled thousands of miles alone just to tell her former fiancé, who had suffered palace punishment, “In this life, there is more than one path to take. It’s just a matter of choosing another path. It’s difficult, but you must keep going and live your own life.”
Her former fiancé said, “Okay.”
The girl cried and said, “Then I’ll go back and get married.”
Her former fiancé said, “Okay.”

Since then, she has been the cinnabar mole on his heart, unfathomable and untouchable.
It hurts when thinking of her, and pain by touching her.
