I Want Us to Be Okay

She and her husband had been married for five years, treating each other with polite respect. She thought they would get along peacefully and grow old together, taking life one day at a time. But Lin Jiao realized she was wrong. When she caught him red-handed with proof of his affair, she didn’t use it to blackmail him. She exposed him to the world and turned his life upside down. She didn’t care if he had other women, but she would never accept him using her money to keep a mistress. But people can’t always outwit fate. When her childhood sweetheart returned after two years abroad, he carefully set out to tempt her, using every scheme he could think of to weave a net around her. Step by step, she lowered her defenses and fell into his wordless tenderness. Only after she had fallen did she realize that thorns were hidden beneath that tenderness. Perhaps love really is as beautiful as it was at first sight. Her husband cheated, and her childhood sweetheart’s love came with ulterior motives. Lin Jiao wondered what she had done in her past life to deserve this, that she could meet the most spectacular scumbags in the whole world. It really proved the old saying: Who didn’t love a few jerks when they were young?
