The Fragile Net of Beauty
Lài Mǐn-huá, a biracial woman, was once a celebrated pianist, admired for her grace and talent. But after an accident, she found herself confined to a wheelchair, facing the pity of those who thought she had lost everything. Her family, well-meaning as they were, only reminded her of what was gone—each gesture meant to help her feel normal instead highlighting how different everything had become.
She dumped her ex and let that two-faced white lotus have him. The woman may think she won, but she didn’t. Lài Mǐn-huá didn’t want that man. She’s her own boss now, leading her own company that’s rapidly climbing the ranks. Success doesn’t come from a man, it comes from the grind. She doesn’t need anyone to validate her, least of all him.
Her life, her rules. And if they’re waiting for her to break, they’ll be waiting a long time.
