[Both pure + marriage of convenience + mutual secret crush + a spouse-chasing journey of regret + rekindled love + saving each other + angst before sweetness]
A complicated romance, a fresh story, tightly linked twists, and plenty of foreshadowing.
Shen Nian always believed Lu Shen had married her solely for a business alliance.
He never took her to banquets, so she thought he was ashamed of her.
He came and went at all hours, so she thought he was avoiding her.
The day she handed him the divorce papers, he lost control for the first time, tearing them up right in front of her before kissing her fiercely.
Then she was in a car accident and lay unconscious for three months.
In her dream, she and that man lived out a happy life together...
When she woke, she thought she was going to die, because that world had been so beautiful it couldn’t possibly be real.
But she opened her eyes.
Beside the bed was his gaunt, unrecognizable face. His eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse.
“The divorce papers... I signed them.”
Shen Nian looked at him and suddenly burst into tears.
Because she had just learned the truth:
The man she thought had never loved her had loved her for his entire life.
The plot is quite novel. It's my first time seeing the dream world. The author writes it very well with lots of details. He twists the conflicts between the male and female protagonists and resolves the misunderstandings very well. I will continue to follow it!
