[Both leads are each other’s first and only + sweet romance + marriage before love + secret crush]
Qiao Miao thought that being born into the Qiao family and becoming the envy of everyone as Mrs. Ji had used up every bit of good luck she’d get in this life.
So when life grew dull and even a toad started dreaming of being human, she made up her mind to divorce. That was when she discovered that Ji Shishu, the icy CEO, could actually drop to his knees and cry!
“Why are you like this after the divorce?”
“Divorce doesn’t mean splitting up the household, and splitting up the household doesn’t mean separate beds. It’s a tradition in the Ji family.”
With his hand gripping her slender waist, Qiao Miao blushed and muttered, “Mr. Ji, have you no shame?”
“Miaomiao, I’ve waited half my life for you. Tell me, do you think I want you, or my dignity?”
“...”
Only later did Qiao Miao realize that this was not only a love story long in the making, but also the tale of more than twenty years of quiet protection from the man who had always stood behind her.
She didn’t know how his love began, but she knew no one could match the depth of his devotion.
