After Qiao Wanxin’s scumbag ex cheated her out of all her savings, she had no choice but to accept the marriage her grandfather arranged and go on a blind date with the grandson of his old army buddy.
To her surprise, the guy was very accommodating. He suggested a marriage in name only: they wouldn’t share a room or have children, and he’d give her two thousand yuan in living expenses every month.
That sounded great. He was handsome, and he’d support her.
She’d wasted so much money on men before, and now she was finally getting some of it back.
Besides, she wouldn’t have to fulfill any of her marital duties. How could she say no to such a sweet deal? They hit it off right away.
But before long, her husband changed his mind and started trying to sneak into her room every night.
“Didn’t we agree we’d get married but not share a room?” Qiao Wanxin protested loudly.
The usually serious man began quibbling over the wording. “We agreed not to share a room. We never said we couldn’t share a bed.”
“But didn’t we agree not to have children...”
“If men’s promises could be trusted, would your ex have fooled you so badly?”
