I recently came across the "It's fun to torment your wife for a while" topic while browsing through books, and it really hit the nail on the head. Especially the book "Exhausting Five Years of Deep Affection"—just looking at the cover and title makes my heart ache. This kind of "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" story, while formulaic, is just so addictive. And that one about moving a modern apartment into an ancient battlefield is pretty imaginative too; the contrast is amazing. I'm planning to stock up on a few to read slowly. Has anyone read them? Can you spoil which one is the most heart-wrenching? 📚

The gentle patter of raindrops fell on the smooth bluestone bricks, creating a misty atmosphere that shrouded the entire capital in a hazy rain. At the street corner, Yun Qing stood on the steps, clutching her embroidered handkerchief, her cold eyes fixed on the distant, hazy street. Her maid, Qing Lan, stood to her left, her eyes red-rimmed, her voice choked with sobs: "Miss, I don't believe the young master would abandon his wife and remarry. Please don't listen to slander and torment yourself." Yun Qing tightened her grip on the handkerchief, her face as cold as frost. Three years ago, her father held considerable military power, and several princes sought to marry her to gain military power. This aroused the suspicion of the late emperor, and to protect her, her father had no choice but to request an imperial decree to betroth her to Pei Xuan, the impoverished heir of a duke's family. On their wedding day, Pei Xuan was suddenly summoned to the palace. After returning home in the evening, he packed his bags and went to Ye City, saying the court had assigned him a secret mission. He disappeared without a trace. Until a few days ago, news came that the matter in Ye City was settled and Pei Xuan would soon return to the capital. Her husband's return should have been a joyous occasion, but last night she suddenly received an anonymous letter. The letter claimed that Pei Xuan had found a beautiful wife, and the two were living in perfect harmony. "Whether it's slander or not, we'll find out today," Yun Qing replied calmly.
