[Chinese pastry chef beauty × long-planning man in power]
[Ex-husband’s groveling redemption + both leads are virgins + male lead claims his place + everyone has a secret crush]
The day Su Wanyang fell from her high-status life, everyone in their social circle waited to see her make a fool of herself.
Then Zhang Jihuai showed up with their marriage agreement and his parents in tow to ask for her hand, humiliating them all.
Su Wanyang thought that marrying her childhood friend, the man she had secretly loved since she was young, would finally bring her the happiness she wanted.
But Zhang Jihuai said, “It’s just a piece of paper. We’re still us. Let’s just live the lives we want.”
Zhang Jihuai was a playboy, with more women on the side than anyone could count.
He never touched her, and he didn’t love her. He let her love for him slowly wither away,
until she felt nothing at all.

For Su Wanyang, Helan Que’s appearance was nothing but an awkward, melodramatic accident.
He was the biological uncle of Zhang Jihuai’s one and only steady mistress.
When they first met, he was ruthless. One swing of his golf club knocked out every tooth in a traitor’s mouth.
From then on, all Su Wanyang felt toward Helan Que was fear.
Yet he seized every opening and left no stone unturned, filling her fading life with his bold, relentless advances.
Later, Su Wanyang finally got her divorce papers.
Helan Que led her to an old house on the rooftop that seemed strangely familiar. Only then did she understand: making her see him and fall in love with him was no spur-of-the-moment decision. It was a vow he had faithfully upheld ever since they were young.
