“Marriage before love + The husband pursues his wife after losing her + Older man + Love grows with time”
Fang Li always thought her marriage to Tan Xu was just a brief arrangement to meet each other’s needs.
Back then, she was an ordinary girl from a fourth-tier city, while he was an industry leader who had returned from overseas. They signed a contract to satisfy their own needs, but as they spent time together, Fang Li began to feel that things were straying from the terms of their agreement.
When she bravely confessed her feelings to Tan Xu, he said coolly, “Didn’t we agree on this? Fang Li, don’t take it too seriously. We’re only meeting each other’s needs. You’ll just make everything complicated.”
So Fang Li put her feelings away and focused on her career, making full use of every resource Tan Xu had to offer.
But when she finally asked to end things, Tan Xu grabbed her, his eyes reddening. “Fang Li, you use people and then throw them away? Do you even have a heart?”
Note:
1. The leads are not each other’s first.
2. Neither lead is perfect. They both have their flaws.
