Fuying was a peasant girl, delicate and tender, with eyes and eyebrows as gentle as water, a beauty that would make one’s heart tremble.

As the villagers say, it was fate that had gifted such a face to such a poor person, a curse.

She and her widowed mother depended on each other for survival, but her face constantly brought her trouble. Ruffians and hooligans blocked her door, harassing her.

Just as she was about to scratch her face with a stone, her widowed mother looked at the handsome man Fuying had picked up a few days ago and said, “Marry him. If you marry him, the town gentlemen won’t miss you anymore.”

Fuying thought he was a good-looking man. He was handsome and elegant, and though he was a little frail, she didn’t mind.

The only drawback was that he was blind. Fuying just didn’t like the way people stared at her, and being blind was exactly what she wanted. Fuying took the package and used her kindness to get him to marry her, and the two of them began living together. She treated everyone kindly, and even though he was initially cold, over time, they became more like equals. Just when Fuying thought things were getting better, on their wedding day, her husband suddenly disappeared for several months, leaving no trace. The next time she saw him was on the long streets of the provincial capital. The man was handsome, unparalleled, and dressed in a brocade robe. He rode a tall horse, looking unfazed, and walked past her without glancing. She didn’t know when his eyesight had healed. But she knew he didn’t recognize her. Or perhaps, even if he did, he wouldn’t acknowledge her. He was a noble young man from an aristocratic family, and she was an ordinary peasant girl. There was a world of difference between them. Fuying gathered the dirt-stained vegetables in her basket and turned away, leaving him without a trace of nostalgia.

Qi Changyuan had been a distinguished young man, renowned for his talent. However, while pursuing a rebel, he fell off a cliff, becoming blind, disabled, and his memory was blurred.

He was rescued by a peasant girl, who, in exchange for a favor, made him agree to many things without thinking.

He thought she was completely devoted to him.

But he couldn’t fall for such a rustic peasant girl, who talked endlessly about village affairs, an utterly boring affair.

So, when his personal guards arrived, he left his gold and silver behind and departed from this rural landscape he had always dreaded.

He thought it wouldn’t take long for him to forget her.

But she seemed to have cast a spell on him, firmly rooted in his heart. She must have some magical power.

Otherwise, why would he feel such unbearable heartache when he saw her chatting and laughing with another man?

Desire grew, and he wanted nothing more than to snatch her back, lock her away with him, and never let her leave him. He thought he was the one being heartless, but she was even more heartless.
