Fiancé Faked Amnesia, So I Married Up

Shen Jianwei, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, was summoned home after years away—forced into a business marriage alliance. The Zhou family’s chosen groom would irrevocably alter her life’s path. Five years ago, at a family gathering, she first met Zhou Song, the young master of the Zhou family. The half-piece of jade pendant around his neck made her mistake him for the brave boy who had rescued her from a kidnapping in their childhood. Grateful and drawn by a budding affection, she accepted the engagement. For five years, they played the role of a loving couple, their bond seemingly deepening. But on the day she decided to expedite their marriage—hoping to ease her mother’s worries before a critical surgery—everything shattered. She walked in on Zhou Song intimately embracing her younger sister, Shen Xingyao, and heard his confession: “I only agreed to this engagement because she resembles Xingyao. I’ve been in love with her all along. These five years… Jianwei was just a stand-in.” The truth cut like a blade. Without tears or hysterics, Jianwei turned away—cold, composed. She severed ties with Zhou Song and demanded the Shen family change the marriage arrangement. To her surprise, the Zhou family responded by sending their true patriarch: Zhou Jingci. At first, his imposing presence intimidated her. But as they spent time together, she discovered a man far gentler than she’d imagined—patient, protective, and unwavering in his respect for her. Slowly, she found solace in his quiet strength. Then, by fate’s design, she recognized the other half of the jade pendant he carried: Zhou Jingci was her childhood savior, not Zhou Song. With the past clarified and hearts aligned, Jianwei embraced this love—real and unshakable. Their wedding was set, a grand affair that would mark the beginning of her true happiness. But on that day, Zhou Song—who had clung to the delusion that she would return—finally realized what he had lost. Desperate, he tried to stop the ceremony, only to watch helplessly as Jianwei walked down the aisle toward the man who cherished her completely: his uncle, Zhou Jingci. And this time, she would never look back.
