[Chasing-wife crematorium + whole-family crematorium + second male lead takes the lead + angst before catharsis + real and fake heiresses]
In five years of marriage, Qin Xi always believed that if she was gentle and patient enough, one day she would warm Gu Jinghan's heart.
But after Gu Jinghan regained his sight, the first time he saw her pick up a paintbrush, he only sneered that she was a poor imitation of someone else. Then he turned around and cut the ribbon for Su Wanyue, who had just returned from studying abroad. On her birthday, Qin Xi stood in a corner and watched as the twins she had carried for ten months pushed her birthday cake in front of Su Wanyue, sweetly calling her "Mommy Moon."
Qin Xi finally understood. In this marriage, she had never been a wife. She was only a substitute the Qin family had kept around for the fake heiress, Su Wanyue.
Five years ago, when her adoptive mother fell gravely ill, the Qin family used medical bills to force her to marry the blind Gu Jinghan in place of Su Wanyue, who had run away from her wedding. She gave up the art career she loved, underwent IVF for him, and raised their two children, only to be met with her husband's contempt and her children's betrayal. Even her birth parents only remembered to celebrate Su Wanyue's birthday.
Then she discovered that the twins had never been hers and Gu Jinghan's children in the first place.
Su Wanyue set her up, and Gu Jinghan angrily demanded a divorce. Qin Xi didn't cry or make a scene. She signed the papers, exposed the truth, and walked away.
She picked up her paintbrush again, astonished the art world, and saw her value soar. Huo Yunxiu, her childhood friend who had been in love with her for years, also drew closer, pursuing her passionately.
But when everyone finally realized Qin Xi wanted nothing to do with them, Gu Jinghan cornered her against a wall, his eyes bloodshot. "Divorce? I don't agree."
