[Urban fantasy, no doormat protagonist, pure wish fulfillment + flash marriage + no cheating + ex's whole family regrets it + husband-chasing + love rivals]
After “two years of marriage,” Gu Yuan discovers that the marriage certificate he treasured so dearly was fake.
Just before graduating from college, the elegant campus beauty Lin Churan, whom he'd pursued for years, is kidnapped.
Grandpa Lin publicly declares that whoever saves his granddaughter can marry her.
Gu Yuan risks his life to rescue Lin Churan.
Who could have known that Lin Churan's family would decide he wasn't good enough for her? They trick him with a fake marriage certificate, then deceive him into working like a horse for the Lin family. He works at the Lin Corporation by day and has to care for his sick father-in-law at night.
When Gu Yuan learns the truth, he laughs in anger, turns around, and inherits a fortune worth hundreds of billions. Using his powerful connections, he throws the Lin family into chaos.
But to his surprise, as he wreaks havoc, Lin Churan unexpectedly falls for him.
When she sees Gu Yuan entering an arranged marriage with her lifelong nemesis, Lin Churan goes berserk. She storms into the wedding and accuses him of being a two-timing scoundrel and committing bigamy!
Gu Yuan responds by throwing out the fake marriage certificate the Lin family gave him, ruining the entire family’s reputation.
When Gu Yuan’s true identity as the eldest grandson of the richest man is exposed, his “former” father- and mother-in-law, his “former” brother-in-law, and his “former wife,” Lin Churan, are all stunned.
Lin Churan clings to Gu Yuan's leg, crying. “Honey, I was really wrong. Forgive me. I've truly fallen in love with you. I can't live without you now.”
Lin Churan's nemesis, Liu Rushuang, rises from her wheelchair and pries her fingers off one by one, smiling smugly.
“Too late. He's my husband now.”

Please, all you lucky gods of wealth passing by, have mercy! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If this isn't to your liking, let's close the book and leave. The author worked hard to write this book, and there will always be people who like it. The female lead is not the ex-wife. Please do not make unfounded claims. Thank you.
I'd give it an 8 out of 10. It's not Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it just feels a bit rushed.
I've read over 20 chapters; the plot is logical and the story is engaging.
Aside from the slightly abrupt ending where he marries Liu Rushuang, overall it's a satisfying read with not too many frustrating moments. Worth checking out! 😄
