[Mutual Firsts] [Younger Man] [Historical Romance] [Happy Ending]
In a nutshell: A man who's stern with everyone else but as obedient as a dog in front of his sister-in-law struggles through countless hardships before finally winning the woman he loves.
Full blurb: Four years into their marriage, Wen Mingyi discovers that her husband is attracted to men, and catches him having an affair with a servant in their own home.
Those four years have drained her of everything. She wants only to divorce him, forget the past, and live a simple, peaceful life.
But her former brother-in-law, Cui Yunheng, was once a mischievous young boy and is now a tall, handsome gentleman. He suddenly barges into her world, insinuating himself into every crevice of her life.
His ardent feelings seem utterly absurd to her.
But she underestimates his determination.
Again and again, she pushes him away, only to break her own rules for him just as often, even committing an unforgivable transgression.
When she finally hardens her heart and drives him away for good, she finds her own heart has become empty.
Fortunately, he's been waiting right behind her all along. The moment she looks back, he rushes into her arms like a puppy.
