[Bittersweet Romance + Regretting the Divorce and Chasing His Wife + Married in Name Only + Both Chaste + Marriage Before Love + Reconciliation]
The first year of Shen Shuanghe and Lu Yuheng’s marriage held the last remnants of warmth. The two years that followed were an agonizing ordeal of sharing a bed while dreaming different dreams.
Lu Yuheng refused to give her even a trace of his true feelings.
Shen Shuanghe once mistook those small, insignificant acts of kindness for love.
Only later did she understand that they were simply the courtesy ingrained in his upbringing.
He would have treated anyone sitting in her place just the same.
In the third year of their marriage, they began living apart, occupying different floors of the same villa. As time went by, it seemed they no longer even needed to argue.
Their marriage had begun with a scheme. Lu Yuheng had married her simply to “make do.”
As for love?
Shen Shuanghe thought, He never intended to give me any from the very beginning.
Lu Yuheng only wanted to preserve appearances, for themselves and for both families.
Shen Shuanghe was the one who asked for a divorce: “Lu Yuheng, let’s get divorced.”
As Lu Yuheng watched the taillights of the departing car, he suddenly remembered a question she had once asked him: “What do you think love is?”
…
One day after the divorce.
“It hurts.”
“Lu Yuheng, can you stop being unreasonable?”
“It really hurts.”
“Where does it hurt?”
“My heart hurts. Feel it.”
“…”
Lu Yuheng looked at Shen Shuanghe. “My heart hurts for you.”
The story of Shen Shuanghe and Lu Yuheng is unfolding, and we thank you for stopping by to enter their world. Welcome to this article! Feel free to leave comments anytime. Also, if you find anything objectionable in the synopsis, just leave now. The first part of this book covers the period of marriage, but the divorce may not occur until the middle to early part of the marriage.
I enjoy this type of story. The emotions between the male and female leads are described very delicately, giving it a sophisticated feel. It's not like those childish stories that feel like playing house. I hope the author writes longer stories. It's a great read!
