Family Conflict
Hate You, Save You
Zhou Ci and I were also a pair of resentful lovers, exchanging harsh words and blows, finally threatening, “Whoever doesn’t get divorced is a dog.”
On the way to the divorce, we cursed each other with the most venomous words we could muster.
But when the oil tanker crashed towards us, he jerked the steering wheel, using his side to take the impact.
He let me live 0.01 seconds longer.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back in the summer at the end of my second year of high school.
Zhou Ciye was holding a bouquet of flowers, asking if I would accept it.
The next second, his listless face lifted, full of gloom.
The moment our eyes met, I knew he had come back too.
The Price of Love
At the class reunion, my ex-boyfriend held his fiancée close as he announced their wedding date.
I snapped a photo and prepared to send it to his mother with the caption: “They look like a perfect match. Congratulations on finally getting what you wanted.”
Just as I was about to hit send, someone grabbed my wrist in a crushing grip.
“Oh? Still in touch with my mother?” He stared down at me, his expression dark and predatory. “What’s the matter? Didn’t you squeeze enough money out of her the first time?”
The surrounding room fell deathly silent. My face turned pale as I looked up.
I hadn’t even noticed when the music had stopped.
I had become the center of attention.
Winter in the Northern City
On the day of Zhou Huaian’s engagement, a reporter held up a microphone and asked for my thoughts.
He was a man of high standing, a true blue-blood from the Imperial Wall Base in Jingcheng.
During the eight years I spent with him, no one ever approved of us.
Every time his mother saw me, she referred to me as nothing more than an “actress.”
His circle of friends would advise him behind my back, “She’s just a minor star. It’s fine to keep her around for fun.”
And Zhou Huaian? He would toy with his lighter and joke, “What are you worried about? It’s not like I’d ever marry her.”
I looked into the camera and said slowly, “Though we aren’t close, this is good news. I wish him a happy engagement.”
The video went viral online. Zhou Huaian boarded his private jet and flew through the night from Jingcheng to Shanghai.
What If Your Rival Knows the Future?
In my past life, my sister was adopted by a wealthy family, while I was taken in by a street cleaner.
As it turned out, that wealthy family was plagued by vicious infighting. Her parents were cold, her brother was a bully, and she was eventually kicked out with nothing to her name.
My home, however, was full of harmony. To top it off, a wealthy young heir fell in love with me-the poor, innocent Little White Flower. My life was like something straight out of a romance drama.
Consumed by resentment, my sister killed me, and we both returned to the day we were adopted.
This time, she rushed forward and threw herself into the cleaner’s arms before I could move.
“Sister, this time, it’s my turn to be the leading lady of the drama.”
But what she didn’t know is that a leading lady is never defined by her background.
Wrong Love
On the day the divorce was finalized, I booked a high-speed rail ticket back to my hometown. A phone, an ID card, and a bank card with a meager balance were all I had left.
When the butler called to say the young master was crying for his mother, I finally understood that the son I had borne and his father loved the same woman.
Before the train left, I made one last promise: I would never disturb him again.
A Love Forged in Resentment
I met someone named Chen Ye.
Everyone says he is loyal, kind, and a rare good person in this world.
But I think he is vulgar, hypocritical, and the most despicable and shameless scoundrel in the world.
Yet I kind of like him.
The Wealthy Couple
Li Xiuyi was my fiancé.
Yet, at his own birthday banquet, he announced that he was marrying another woman.
Everyone turned to look at me, their eyes filled with uncertainty.
Amidst the awkward atmosphere, I was the first to start clapping.
I even presented a ring as a blessing.
“I wish you a long and happy marriage, and may you be blessed with a child soon.”
The CEO’s Runaway Bride
I had been married to the heir of the Jiang Group for two years, and during that entire time, he had treated me with nothing but cold indifference.
Then, in the middle of the night, I got out of bed to use the bathroom when he suddenly grabbed my hand.
I turned around to find the man before me with the corners of his eyes flushed a faint red, his voice trembling.
“Shen Tingwan, are you trying to leave me behind again?”
The Ashtray
[Light Horror + Infidelity + Plot Twists] A beautiful Southern Girl, a knock on the door in the middle of the night, a silent delivery driver, someone crouching under the bed… Qin Song’s life descended into an inescapable hell because of an extramarital affair.
The Younger Man I’m Not Supposed to Love
At thirty-five, I experienced a cliff-drop divorce.
In truth, it wasn’t entirely without warning.
I am a police officer and Liang Xu is a prosecutor; in the eyes of others, we were a match made in heaven.
Late one night, Liang Xu turned off the light, climbed into bed, and spoke slowly.
“I feel like my life right now is nothing more than a pool of stagnant water.”
After that, he changed careers to become a lawyer, specializing in litigation for the wealthy.
We changed houses, and we changed cars.
The day our son started elementary school, he asked me for a divorce.
“Even though we have sex once a week, it feels like a routine chore.
“Perhaps you should try someone else, too.”
And I really did.
But then Liang Xu lost control of his emotions, grabbing my shoulders and shaking me violently.
“You’re a cop and he’s a crook! Can you please wake up?!”
With a swift counter-move, I pinned his arm behind his back.
“I got used to drinking lukewarm water, so now I want to taste some strong liquor. He’s rich, handsome, and young-what could he possibly want from me other than myself?”
