    Abusing one's wife may feel good for a while, but winning her back is a nightmare. The male lead is possessive, and the female lead goes crazy whenever she mentions divorce. After the female lead graduates from university, the male lead forcibly takes her as his own, truly mastering the art of force. He first schemes to get her pregnant and then systematically compels her to marry him. His possessiveness is incredibly strong after marriage; he's usually calm, but easily becomes irritable and angry towards the man who almost became her fiancé. The male lead's pursuit of his wife is a nightmare. There are parts where he's willing to die for the female lead. Overall, I've read the book twice and still found it quite enjoyable. It has a very fresh set of characters and plot, just a niche genre with a lower readership. Among books with male-torture plots, this is my favorite. The female lead is tortured to the point that readers are amazed she hasn't been driven insane by the male lead. It's truly a very good read. If you feel the male-torture aspect wasn't adequate, you can read the last chapter, an extra chapter where the author summarizes the plot. (You can read the synopsis first.)

    I've recently fallen in love with this book and eagerly await each update. The opening is quite heart-wrenching; the female lead deceives the amnesiac male lead, making him fall in love with her. However, the male lead already has a lover, but they weren't together due to a misunderstanding, though they are married. After regaining his memory, the male lead is conflicted, both loving and hating the female lead. His feelings for his former lover also become complicated. Since it's a serialized story, this is the current pace. I really hope for a "wife-chasing-after-the-incense" ending! Actually, I don't think the female lead is that bad; I hope she follows her own path and doesn't depend on the male lead. [Flying kiss]
