The financial headlines exploded.
Jing City's richest man, Master Jin, was photographed entering a presidential suite with a gold digger. There was even a lipstick mark on his shirt.
The whole internet mocked the gold digger for scheming to marry into a wealthy family. Little did they know that by the floor-to-ceiling window, the man was holding a prenuptial agreement and smiling coldly.
“Congratulations, Mrs. Jin. You got what you wanted.”
Chu Ruoyun loved a man for many, many years. She thought he loved her too.
But one day, she discovered that the only woman he'd ever loved was his white moonlight.
The two of them were passionately in love, just waiting for her to step aside.
Three years passed, and Chu Ruoyun's self-respect was ground into the dirt.
She didn't want to love him anymore. She left a divorce agreement behind and went far away.
In a foreign land, she fell in love with a man who understood her. Life seemed to hold more and more hope, and she thought her former marriage had been nothing but a dream...
Until she ran into that Satan-like man again at a Western restaurant.
On Valentine's Day, flowers and the fragrance of wine filled the restaurant. Her future fiancé was waiting at the table.
In an unlit private room on the second floor, the man pinned her against the door, gripping her slender waist and kissing her until she could barely breathe.
“If you don't want your fiancé to hear us, behave.”
Jin Muxun believed women were like clothes: if one didn't feel right, just throw it away.
He had only four words of advice for his wife: be obedient and sensible.
Much later, Jin Muxun finally learned what it felt like to slap himself in the face. It hurt. Damn, did it hurt.
