[Slight Angst + The Husband's Long Road to Winning Her Back + Emotionally Unavailable, Protective Older-Man Type Male Lead + Gentle, Strong Female Lead + Female Lead Runs Away While Pregnant]
Jiang Zhi had been married into the Li family for eight years, living under constant oppression. Her mother-in-law kept picking fights, while her husband and son treated her coldly. She received not the slightest kindness from her family.
At long last, the family of three sat down to eat together, when her son's smartwatch rang.
“Auntie Niannian, I'll come over with Dad as soon as we're done eating.”
Jiang Zhi's face stiffened. The two of them spent more time with an outsider than they did with her.
Her heart turned cold. She decided to divorce him. She didn't want custody of her child; the one in her belly was enough for her.
Later, the father and son came looking for her.
“Mom, I'm sorry. Please don't leave me.”
“Jiang Zhi, choose me one more time.”
Jiang Zhi believed that you only got back what you put in. Li Chaoyan kept trying to make amends, giving everything he had, again and again.
She was moved, because nobody else wanted Li Chaoyan.
Years later, Li Chaoyan left the business world. A reporter asked, “After more than a decade of darkness and feeling worse than dead, have you finally seen the light, Mr. Li?”
Li Chaoyan looked toward the TV camera and smiled with relief. “I'm very happy now.”
Watching the TV, Jiang Zhi picked up their child and said confidently, “Your dad is happy because he met me.”
[Don't take the lack of logic too seriously, please go easy on me!!!!!! This is simply a story of mutual salvation and two people choosing each other.]
The story is good, but there are many characters and their names are complicated, which inevitably makes it confusing!
The pacing is fast; the cause of the male lead's father's death was covered in less than fifty chapters, and the mother's story also ended. Every couple is great, and I especially love Qiao and Meng!
