Forbidden Desire in the Sacred Garden

A ruthless fiancé drugs her at a glittering banquet—her only escape leads straight into the forbidden garden where a dangerously beautiful Buddhist disciple awaits. Shen Songyi has endured years of contempt as the unwanted betrothed of the Shang family's fifth young master. But when betrayal leaves her poisoned and desperate, she stumbles into a sacred sanctuary no one dares enter. There, beneath the golden temple roof, she locks eyes with Shang Congyu—a man whose serene facade conceals an obsession that will consume them both. Age gap. Power reversal. Possessive love.
