Looking back, there actually had been a time of happiness between her and Li Jinyan.
When she was coerced by Ling Jinghang to get close to Li Jinyan for her mother's sake, at the beginning, when they were together, Li Jinyan found out that she was a virgin, and seemed quite happy, treating her relatively well.
He bought her gifts, took her out for meals, watched movies together, held her hand while strolling...
She cautiously tried to please him because she was afraid he would grow tired of her and upset Ling Jinghang, who would then harm her mother.
That period could be considered the happiest time of her life.
No need to worry about her father beating her, her mother was spared from domestic violence, and by Li Jinyan's side she didn't lack food or clothing; everything was fine, apart from being unable to see the light of day.
