The Wife Wakes Up and Wants a Divorce, and Her Stoic, Gruff Husband Sees Red

[Bright, proud, self-interested heiress × insecure, stoic poor boy who dotes on his wife | Sweet romance | Marriage first, love later | Emotional push and pull | Reunion after a long separation]

When Fang Zhiling wakes from a dream, she realizes she is the cannon-fodder first wife in a contemporary sweet romance novel.

The male lead is her current husband, Shen Baiyan. In the future, he will achieve success, with a cherished wife by his side.

That cherished wife is not her.

She is the original wife who coldly abandoned him to take the college entrance exam. Later, she remarries a gambler who never changes his ways, and her life becomes miserable.

She wakes at the very moment she has just learned that the college entrance exams are about to resume, when the idea of taking them is beginning to stir within her.

She thinks that if the dream is real, then she needs to set her life right.

She won’t give that worthless gambler from her dream a second glance.

And Shen Baiyan, the man who grovels before her now but will later cater to another woman’s every whim, is not someone she intends to keep either.

If someone else can take him away, he was never hers to begin with.

All she wants is to go to college.

So she calmly says to Shen Baiyan, just as she did before: “Let’s get a divorce.”

But the man who is always unshakable, taciturn, and reserved turns red-eyed at her words. “I don’t agree.”

Everyone knows Fang Zhiling is beautiful, refined, and pampered.

Some people also call her selfish, lazy, and calculating.

But Shen Baiyan knows she is gentle, clever, and radiant.

She is the woman he loves.

And the one he will pursue and never let go of for the rest of his life.

Tips: 1. One-on-one romance, happy ending.

2. The male and female leads are imperfect.

3. The plot is melodramatic, and the prose is overwrought.

4. I’m open to feedback, but please avoid personal attacks.
