[A female lead who refuses to suffer in silence and goes berserk, taking everyone down with her vs. a male lead who’s blind to everything, an idiot, and a complete scumbag]
At sixteen, Shen Yuan entered the martial world for the first time and met Xie Zhiyan.
They fell in love at first sight, their passion burning bright. They fought side by side on the battlefield, and no matter how many temptations and schemes came their way, Xie Zhiyan remained unwaveringly devoted to Shen Yuan.
But six years into their marriage, the love that had survived storms of bloodshed was defeated by the petty squabbles of married life.
Xie Zhiyan hated Shen Yuan’s calculating manner and despised how she quibbled over every little thing. She had abandoned the carefree, spirited woman she used to be and become no different from all the other women in the capital!
Shen Yuan had never been one to follow the rules. But after marrying Xie Zhiyan, she gritted her teeth and learned all those rigid rules and etiquette, year after year, so she wouldn’t embarrass him or give her mother-in-law cause to criticize her.
Then, while she was away visiting her family for half a month to pay respects to her ancestors, Xie Zhiyan lost their only son while sneaking off to meet his mistress!
The search for her son seemed endless, but her husband called her crazy for going out in public day after day and forbade her from looking any further.
So that was what was going on. He’d had another child with his mistress.
Why should her son be lost while he and his mistress still got to live happily ever after?
To hell with it. If one of us dies, we all die!
Want your mistress to join the household? Only over my dead body!
Want a divorce? Stop talking nonsense. We’re in this until one of us dies!
Later, someone offered her a kingdom as a bride price, promised her a place in history for all time, and found her lost son for her!
Shen Yuan decided she was done getting mixed up with this pack of rotten fish and shrimp. She was going to live the brilliant life she was meant to have.
And then her ex-husband, who had once cast her aside like a worthless rag, regretted it!
The writing is poor, the characters are broken, and completely unreasonable. In order to match the arrogance of the protagonist, all the supporting characters are made to be fools.
The heroine is also a loser. If she wants to kill the scumbag, why would she let him know that she would throw insults in front of his face and talk so much nonsense?
Hard to describe in one word 😅
