He paused and then continued, "Perhaps he thought that time would breed love, but to his dismay, the Nangong madam remained cold to him even after marriage. Then, on the wedding day itself, he tried to drown his sorrow in alcohol and ended up having sexual relations with Chen Peifang."

That’s why she seduced Gu Zhendong on his wedding day, thinking that would make him fall out of love with his wife. However, for years after their wedding, although Gu Zhendong never had the Nangong madam’s body or heart, he never stopped thinking about her. Hence, Chen Peifang harbored a murderous intent and organized what looked like an accidental car crash after the Nangong madam went out."
