[Ex-husband chases his wife, scumbag dad chases his daughter, and both face a reckoning; scheming, calculating male lead rises to the top
Cool-on-the-outside, warm-on-the-inside heroine + aloof, handsome, fiercely protective male lead]
Xie Yi watched coldly as Ye Jin went from caring about her to treating her perfunctorily.
She should have known that all that protection and concern came from favoritism, and that she would never be the one he favored.
She quietly gathered evidence, then threw proof of his infidelity in his face.
“I’m divorcing you so you two lovebirds can be together.”
The scumbag burst into tears and denied it three times in a row. “I don’t like her. I won’t divorce you. I won’t allow it!”
Xie Yi didn’t budge.
After a fleeting glimpse from behind a rockery, Xie Yi somehow became the “thief” who stole a ring.
The “victim” turned out to be the mortal enemy of her ex-husband back in high school.
Xie Yi had good reason to suspect that the man kept giving her trouble because of her scumbag ex.
She protested indignantly, “I’m already divorced from him. If you want to take your anger out on someone, go after him! What does this have to do with me?”
The man curled his thin lips, his voice languid.
“I don’t like him. Why would I go after him?”
