A thick-skinned heroine VS a shameless, cheating playboy hero
Zhen Zhi has three great regrets in life!
First, when Jiang Yu was going through a breakup, she took advantage of his vulnerability and poured her heart into an eight-year platonic relationship with him. But the moment his first love came back, he kicked her to the curb.
Second, after Jiang Yu stood her up, she gave up on herself, went to a bar, and hired a male escort. Only after their one-night stand did she discover the escort was her sworn rival, Lu Huaian.
Third, when she was desperate, she panicked and asked Lu Huaian to enter a fake marriage with her. Now the joke’s on her: the fake marriage has become real, and this bastard pins her in his arms and kisses her every day. There’s no escaping him!
Lu Huaian’s life philosophy split cleanly in two.
When he was pursuing Zhen Zhi, he believed love mattered more than a title: the one who isn’t loved is the mistress.
After marrying Zhen Zhi, he gradually got the taste of it: “Once I’m queen, you’ll always be concubines. Every bastard who tries to seduce my wife can go to hell!”
Later
Jiang Yu finally noticed something was off about Zhen Zhi.
She stopped returning to the home they once shared. When she did show up, the suggestive red marks on her neck were barely covered.
At first, Jiang Yu was furious. But then he talked himself down: it wasn’t her fault. She was still young and liked excitement. The men outside were just hotel rooms; he was home.
To protect that home, he went to Lu Huaian, putting on the airs of a legitimate husband. “Please show some respect and leave Zhen Zhi alone.”
Lu Huaian didn’t hurry. He simply drew out a flash of glaring red.
Pinching a marriage certificate between two fingers, he tapped the names printed side by side.
“Do me a favor and take a good look.”
“Which one of us is really the other man?”
