   🥀Li Wan and Zhou Wangjing's marriage began with a chance encounter one night. Zhou Wangjing didn't love her; he had someone he liked who had accompanied him through his youth. He married her out of a sense of responsibility. She had seen the way Zhou Wangjing looked at that girl. Li Wan finally lost heart and filed for divorce. Zhou Wangjing didn't ask why, only coldly watching her, "Found someone new again?" Li Wan understood that three years of marriage hadn't changed anything; he had never treated her as a wife, she was just a problem he had to deal with. After being reborn, Li Wan decided to stay away from Zhou Wangjing, whom she had liked for a long time in her previous life. However, Zhou Wangjing changed his usual indifference and became obsessed with making all sorts of deals with Li Wan. "Li Wan, let's make a deal."

    A bitter feud, a blood feud between two powerful families, forced into a business marriage. They have a child, but no love remains. He keeps her imprisoned, preventing her from going anywhere. He dismisses her midnight whispers as dreams. She pretends to measure his neck with a rope, but when he discovers her, she claims she's measuring a necklace and asks if he believes her. He then furiously binds her hands with the rope, forcing her to realize they are enemies. She and her child weep, their eyes brimming with tears. His heart aches, but he feels no pity. She packs her bags to escape, but he discovers her. He doesn't understand how painful it is for her to leave. He doesn't love her, so why is he acting this way? His father pressured him to divorce his wife, but he refused. Her mother urged her to divorce him, and she seemed to have fallen in love with him. However, the deep-seated hatred stemming from their family feud persisted. Her relatives came to her rescue with weapons, but he was monitoring his enemies and family outside. She watched helplessly as her loved ones were injured. Unable to accept this reality, she attempted suicide by running into a wall while he wasn't looking, wanting to die with them. Without her family, she had lost all will to live. He was moved and asked the doctor to save her. The housekeeper, seeing his heartbreaking tears, wondered if he had fallen in love with her. He didn't know he had fallen in love but refused to admit it. However, she had amnesia and even forgave him for wanting to kill her. He began to understand his own heart and felt a sense of kinship with her. He treated her like a beloved person, making her happy. He never fed her before, but started feeding her even his son. He knew she was already in his heart. He realized what loving someone was like. He never knew that loving someone could make him give everything. But when she asked him if he loved her, he still stubbornly refused to admit it. He remembered his grandfather's words: "A man without love is carefree." She asked him again if he loved her, and he unconsciously and gently admitted it in his sleep. Until she regained her memory, their marriage was blocked by his father. He didn't understand why it was his parents who wanted him to marry her, and it was also his parents who wanted them to divorce. What exactly did he and she do wrong? Why ignore their love when they became victims of generations of feuds? He once thought their marriage was secure. His father offered him 50 million to leave her, but he resolutely refused. However, when he heard her demand 500 million for a breakup, his heart sank. It turned out she didn't love him; their love was nothing but a pipe dream. He thought their love could overcome everything, including generations of hatred, but she only cared about money. He was deeply hurt. For the first time, she returned to her parents' home openly. He chased after her for love, not even considering the danger to his life. He begged her to come home, but she refused. Her family thanked him, leaving her confused. Why were they thanking him when they were clearly enemies? Then his father arrived. Were the two feuding families about to fight again? Or were they setting aside their prejudices to prevent the next generation from facing all the family feuds? Could they still be lovers?

    These are all stories about a wife-chasing tragedy. 1️⃣ The female lead sees the male lead being intimate with another female lead (it's a misunderstanding, but it's cleared up later), and then they divorce because of a series of misunderstandings. Actually, the male lead isn't that great. But I still recommend everyone to read it because the female lead is really charming!! She's a very resilient and strong woman 🥹 Another point is that I think the author writes very well, her writing skills are excellent [laughs] 2️⃣ There's also a misunderstanding, but the female lead is exceptionally good! She's a documentary director, and the character is really well-developed. At least the reader can see her dedication to her work; she's even willing to sacrifice her life (she didn't die). The female lead has already resolved everything when she reunites with the male lead! She's really amazing. 3️⃣ I also really like the female lead in this book, you can refer to 1. But there are definitely differences~ Because the male lead's family did her a favor, she becomes the vice president of the male lead's family company. She has outstanding work ability and after resigning, she opens her own dessert shop. In short, it's very good 🥰 4️⃣ After reading this book, I thought: I'm glad I stayed up all night. The highlight of the fourth book is that it's only 130,000 words long, so you can finish it in no time. Therefore, pacing is crucial, but the author's writing is superb! Both the smoothness of the plot and the character development are excellent. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been willing to read from 1 AM to 4 AM. The female lead is a high-level executive from investment banking, truly impressive (I can't quite describe it). She falls in love with the male lead at first sight and goes to work for him at his company. The male lead, however, is somewhat oblivious and, due to family factors, is a bit hesitant about relationships initially. During a crisis, he doubts her, leading to a crisis of trust. Only after she resigns does he understand.

    Reader note

    It was a romance that began with a lie—the male protagonist approached the female protagonist because of a reckless bet with a friend. He initially thought it was just a casual fling, but unknowingly, he gave his heart away. However, the truth eventually shattered the sweet illusion. On the day the female protagonist learned everything, fate dealt her an even heavier blow: her beloved grandfather fell critically ill. She alone bore the double blow of betrayal in love and the impending departure of her loved one, as if the whole world had lost its color in an instant. After her grandfather's death, when she needed support the most, the person who should have protected her became the one who had initially caused her pain. So she chose the quietest and most resolute revenge—while he was completely unaware, she boarded a flight to an overseas destination, without a farewell, without a word of explanation. Just as he had rashly begun, she had decisively ended it, leaving him to face a suddenly empty world. Only then did the male protagonist truly understand what it meant to be consumed by remorse. He searched for her frantically, only to learn that she had long since left for distant lands to pursue her studies. It turns out that some people, once missed, are gone forever. And he was destined to embark on a long and arduous journey to win her back—a path of burning flames, yet he knew not if they could warm the heart he had broken.

The male lead later realizes he likes her, but the female lead has already gone abroad. The second book is similar to the first. In the third book, the female lead initially has a slight stutter, which improves later. The male lead becomes obsessed, imprisoning her and even driving her to suicide. Later, the female lead goes abroad to study, and the male lead secretly makes sacrifices for her.

    1️⃣It's common knowledge that the female lead likes the male lead, but he doesn't seem to care. The day she gave up on him, it snowed in Shengjing. She stayed in the palace for three days and realized a truth: one shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket. Afterwards, the male lead's pursuit of her was tumultuous; she no longer cared about the Grand Tutor, and suitors flocked to her. 2️⃣The female lead was the apple of her family's eye. She married the male lead through an arranged marriage, and their mutual unrequited love led to their divorce. The male lead raised their child very well, and even after the divorce, he didn't hide the female lead's existence, so the child always knew who her mother was. After reconciling, the male lead learned from his divorce and spoke up. Aside from a brief cold war near the end, there was almost no angst. The extra "what if" storyline is purely sweet with no angst; the male lead speaks up, and the main couple gets together very quickly.
