But the road to divorce was bumpy and bumpy, and she had to overcome all difficulties to get divorced this time. The husband hugged her and asked aggrievedly: "Is it necessary to divorce? I am strong and strong, and I will give you all the salary I earn. I will take care of the housework and take care of the children. It will not affect your career. Where can you find such excellent genes without me?" [Cool] [Cool] [Cool] 2. The heroine of a post-apocalyptic boss travels into a period novel. In the beginning, someone wants to kill her, but she backhandedly turns him into a strange fool. The adoptive mother wanted to get her a job and a house, so she paralyzed her and packed it up and gave it to her adulterer. The man jumped off the wall and looked at the petite figure holding a stick in front of him, beating people smoothly and happily. He hesitated slightly: "Um, I think I went to the wrong place. Why don't you continue?" [Attention][Attention][Attention] 3. A rebirth story.

However, her sister suffered a miscarriage after being beaten by the playboy and his mistress, and was eventually sent to a mental hospital. After the twin sisters are reborn, the younger sister chooses the "phoenix man" first, leaving the female lead to reluctantly marry the playboy. [Cool][Cool][Cool] 4.
