Powerful CEO, secret illness, divorce caused by a misunderstanding, a satisfying heroine, pretending to flirt with other men, a groveling ex-husband, and face-slapping
Sheng Jingwen was secretly suffering from an illness. Afraid it would ruin his wife's happiness, he deliberately lied and claimed he had fallen in love with another woman. He cruelly forced Ji Rou to divorce him.
He bore all his troubles alone, intending to wait until there was hope for his condition before trying to win back his beloved.
One day, he visited a film company as an investor and happened to see his ex-wife filming a kissing scene with an actor. He flew into a rage and rushed over to stop them on the spot.
Ji Rou looked at him coldly and said, "We're divorced. What gives you the right to decide who I kiss?"
Sheng Jingwen was left speechless, and his jealousy erupted completely.
From then on, whenever he saw her filming an intimate scene with an actor, he would go straight to the director and issue a stern warning: "I'll take her place in every intimate scene, kissing scene, and close-contact scene. No one else is allowed near her!"
What he found even harder to accept was that she was actually pregnant with someone else's child.
He grabbed her, his voice tight. "Who's the father?"
Ji Rou lifted her eyes calmly. "It's not you, anyway."
All his longing and relief crumbled in an instant. His eyes red, he broke down in tears, utterly disheveled.
In the days that followed, all he could do was carry his overwhelming guilt and humble himself as he struggled, bit by bit, to win her back.
