The CEO Who Loved Me After Death

"I died alone in a freezing charity ward, betrayed by everyone I ever loved."

My father sold me out. My fiancé abandoned me for my stepsister. My family framed me for corporate fraud and left me to rot. But as my heart took its final beat, the man I thought hated me most in the world kicked down my hospital door. Lu Jingyan, the ruthless, untouchable CEO of Lu Holdings. He was holding the evidence to clear my name, weeping like a broken child as he clutched my lifeless body. If I get the next life, I vowed to the darkness, I won’t run from him. And I will make my enemies bleed. Then, I opened my eyes. I’m twenty-two again. It’s the day of my engagement lunch to the man who will eventually ruin me. This time, I didn't smile. I don’t play the obedient, naive heiress. I hand back the ring, walk out the door, and step straight into the path of Shanghai’s most terrifying billionaire. Lu Jingyan is cold, calculating, and the apex predator of the financial world. To shield me from my family's treacherous schemes, he offers me an ironclad contract marriage. The rules are simple: Separate finances. No interference in my revenge. No forced intimacy. He signs the multi-billion-dollar agreement without blinking, but adds one handwritten clause to the bottom of the page: “All conditions accepted without reservation. Except loving you.” I thought we were just partners in a corporate war. But as my stepsister's lies unravel and my ex-fiancé begs on his knees, I’m realizing the "Living King of Hell" doesn't just want to help me take back my empire. He wants my heart. And this time, I’m not letting him fight in the dark alone.
