The night was cloaked in a thick fog, the city of Shanghai shimmering in the distance like a sea of broken stars. Li Wei stood at the large window of her modest apartment, cradling her daughter, Mei Ling, in her arms. The city's vibrant life seemed a world away as she gazed out, lost in her thoughts. It had been four years since Zhang Ming, the man who had stolen her heart and shattered it, walked out of her life. The man who was not just her lover but the father of her child. His sudden return had stirred up emotions she had long buried, reopening wounds she thought had healed. Li Wei's mind drifted back to the first time she met Zhang Ming. She had been the diligent HR manager tasked with onboarding the new CEO. An error in the system led her to believe he was an undercover auditor sent to evaluate the company’s practices. Determined to impress, she had gone out of her way to make his transition smooth. Little did she know, her kindness would be the spark that ignited a forbidden romance. Their love had been as passionate as it was secretive. Stolen glances during meetings, hidden kisses in the elevator, and whispered confessions late into the night. But the truth had a way of surfacing. When she discovered his true identity, the betrayal had cut deep. Zhang Ming's resignation, intended to protect her, only left her more isolated and heartbroken. In the months that followed, Li Wei discovered she was pregnant. The news had been a beacon of hope in her darkest hour. She chose to keep the child, raising Mei Ling on her own while burying herself in her work. Every day was a struggle, but Mei Ling's smile gave her the strength to carry on. Tonight, as she held Mei Ling close, the knock on the door startled her. Her heart raced as she approached, a sense of dread mingled with hope. She opened the door to find Zhang Ming standing there, older and wearier but with the same intense gaze that had once melted her defenses. He looked at her with a mixture of hope and regret, his eyes lingering on the child in her arms. In that moment, Li Wei knew their story was far from over. The past and present collided, setting the stage for a tumultuous journey of redemption, love, and second chances.
