On the wedding day, the groom disappeared, but everyone was certain I wouldn't leave. After all, I had willingly given up my prestigious status as the daughter of a high-ranking official, just to wait for this day. But this time, he never saw me again; all he received was my divorce statement published in the newspaper. After deciding to divorce, I planned to study abroad, to see the world, and also to sell the small villa in the center of the county town that my father had given to Lin Feng and me as our wedding home. But at the time, he was incredibly proud and, to avoid being seen as a "phoenix man" who had climbed the social ladder by marrying into a powerful family, resolutely refused to move into my house.
