[Angst first, then satisfying payback + heroine’s comeback + the husband chases her after the divorce]
Meng Shu once believed Fu Yuchuan would love her for the rest of his life.
That was why she was willing to travel a thousand miles to marry him. In return, he repeatedly left her behind for the sake of his younger brother’s wife.
She comforted herself with the thought that perhaps he was only fulfilling his duty to his brother.
But when she saw with her own eyes Fu Yuchuan giving his sister-in-law the exact same tenderness and affection he had once shown her, she finally came to her senses.
Love doesn’t disappear. It simply moves on to someone else.
So she resolutely took back her heart and asked for a divorce.
Everyone laughed at her for overestimating herself, saying she was just throwing a tantrum, putting on an act, and trying to get Fu Yuchuan’s attention.
Even Fu Yuchuan himself didn’t take her seriously.
But he never imagined Meng Shu was serious this time.
She stopped revolving around him and began learning perfumery and building a career. Step by step, she made her way onto the international stage and became a top perfumer.
One outstanding person after another appeared by her side, and rivals in love sprang up like bamboo shoots after rain.
Fu Yuchuan panicked. He stopped going to the office and stopped coming home, following her shamelessly every day to stake his claim and keep an eye on one man after another.
Meng Shu was fed up. At a banquet, in front of everyone, she slapped him hard across the face.
The entire room fell silent.
Everyone thought the high-and-mighty man would turn and leave.
But he didn’t.
He dropped to his knees, took her reddened hand, and kissed it again and again, his voice low and hoarse.
“Wife, please look at me one more time.”
Meng Shu casually pulled her hand away and looked down at him, all affection gone from her eyes.
“Mr. Fu, don’t call me that. We’re not close.”
I read the original novel after watching the manga. My only reason for sticking with it was that I wanted to see the female lead take revenge on the scumbag, but I always saw her being manipulated by him, and him constantly being blinded by scheming women. This is the only novel where I hoped the female lead would either be beautiful on her own or end up with any man around her.
The writing is excellent, but it absolutely must be a tragic ending (BE). There must be no reason for a happy ending (HE). Before the BE, please make the male lead and the second female lead suffer terribly.
It's a great watch. The plot unfolds seamlessly, vividly portraying the warmth and coldness of love and the suffering caused by it. The female lead is very clear-headed, knowing when to cut her losses. If she doesn't love you anymore, she leaves peacefully. Thumbs up for her! Without clinging, there's no pain. Life is short; turning away gracefully and finding beauty on your own is the wisest choice.
This is the second ongoing novel I'm following by author [w]. [W] 's works are consistently highly acclaimed 👍, with rich and layered story structures [learned something], gripping plot developments ❤️, consistent updates, and a satisfying ending, presenting the story in its most perfect form [a masterpiece by Sparrow Eater], truly amazing and addictive 🥰, making it impossible to put down [please update more frequently]!
Dear author, is this a clean romance novel? It feels like the male lead is just using the guise of responsibility to act out his love for the female supporting character, which is really frustrating. Also, the author's ability to express emotions is too strong; I'm getting so angry while reading it! 😂
The writing is good. I look forward to the plot twists and turns. I hope the male lead sees through the person who is pretending to be weak and regrets hurting the female lead. I wait for updates every day. The male lead keeps saying how much he loves the female lead, but he doesn't believe her when something happens, which is really frustrating to watch. In comparison, I like the second male lead more and sincerely hope he gets the role.
When will things turn around, and when will we finally get revenge on that scumbag?
It's super good! The female lead is very clear-headed, the male lead is a complete idiot, the "green tea" character is a classic, and the plot is really great.
The beginning was infuriating; I hope the revenge on the scumbag who sees the woman later will be more satisfying…
I enjoyed watching it because it was humane, but I also saw the ugly side. I hope that in the end, the ugly side will be overwhelmed by the positive side. The sister-in-law with the heart should be made to suffer a terrible fate, the Fu family should be ruined, and the good person Jiang Lushu should be happy!
