Lin Yue had loved Shen Wenzhou for ten years.
From a cautious secret crush in their school days to the “happy ending” of a marriage arranged for business, she thought that at least this marriage might win her a little of his affection.
But in three years of marriage, they only pretended to be a loving couple in public. In private, they hadn’t even lived together.
At last, she understood: from beginning to end, this marriage had been nothing but her own obsession.
So she asked for a divorce and decided to set herself free.
But after the divorce, she discovered she was pregnant.
The thing Shen Wenzhou regretted most in his life was not telling Lin Yue before she left:
He had loved her for ten years, too.
He thought she had someone else in her heart. He was afraid that if he confessed, they wouldn’t even be able to stay friends. After they married, he was even more afraid to get close to her, terrified she would hate him.
Only after she was truly gone did he realize just how badly he had been mistaken.
But too proud to swallow his pride, he couldn’t bring himself to chase after her.
Not until he heard she was carrying his child.
“Mutual pining + too proud to admit it + adorable baby + happy ending”
Short and sweet, I like it very much.
