After I Asked for a Divorce, My Abstinent Husband Spoiled Me Until I Got Pregnant

Older-man, nurturing type / simmering tension / slow-burn, sweet romance

In the third year of their marriage,

Ji Zhaozhao had had enough of the polite, passionless life she shared with her husband, Shi Jinyuai, and asked for a divorce.

The man wore a sharply tailored suit. His features were striking, and his dark eyes were cool and indifferent as he looked at her. He agreed without hesitation.

After the divorce, Ji Zhaozhao tried hard to find someone new to make up for the scars left by her previous marriage. Even when she ran into her ex-husband, she pretended not to see him.

She thought things were going well, until one day on her way to work, he suddenly stopped her car.

The man towered over her, his deep eyes fixed on her.

“Were you unhappy with once a week?”

They were divorced. What was the point of discussing that? Ji Zhaozhao thought he was crazy and ignored him.

She never expected him to grab her wrist.

The usually composed man lost his cool for once.

“Ji Zhaozhao, if you weren’t satisfied, you could have told me. I never said we couldn’t do it more often.”

Ji Zhaozhao was stunned.

Was this really coming from the man who made every time they slept together feel like a trip to the execution grounds?

Shi Jinyuai was the eldest son of the wealthy Shi family in Haicheng. He was restrained, disciplined, and indifferent by nature.

He hated his childhood friend Ji Zhaozhao, who loved money above all else and had no sense of boundaries.

He had never imagined marrying her, and never thought he could fall in love with her.

Then, after three dull years of marriage, she asked for a divorce.

He thought it would be better for both of them, so he agreed right away.

Only after the divorce did he realize it wasn’t better.

Not even a little.
