A groveling father and son + strong heroine + no forgiveness
Song Yao was once one of the country’s leading perfumers, but Gu Mochen used their young child as an excuse to keep her trapped in the confines of their home for seven whole years.
Until
Gu Mochen cheated on her. During an argument, he said, “Didn’t your father cheat too? Your mother could put up with it, so why can’t you?”
She never expected the shattering effect to come so quickly, or hurt so much.
Song Yao lost her second child at the hospital, while Gu Mochen took their son, Gu Xi, to set off fireworks across the city to celebrate his mistress’s birthday.
Gu Mochen repeatedly crossed boundaries, yet thought that as long as he didn’t go all the way with the other woman, he wasn’t doing Song Yao wrong.
After Song Yao asked for a divorce, she returned to her old profession, starting out as a junior perfumer. In less than six months, she made a name for herself and reclaimed her place as the country’s number-one perfumer.
The divorce cooling-off period ended, and with evidence of his infidelity in hand, she finally obtained the divorce certificate that represented her freedom.
As soon as news of her divorce broke, powerful figures from every field, from leading researchers and financial moguls to company executives, strutted around like peacocks and did everything they could to get her attention.
Later, Gu Mochen came with their son to beg her to reconcile. “Yaoyao, come back. This family can’t do without you.”
Gu Xi looked up at her pitifully. “Mommy, I only want you.”
Before she could answer, the man beside her had already pulled her possessively into his arms. “Get lost! Stay away from my wife.”
