    Highly recommended!!! Highly recommended!!! I was also looking for a good novel because I was experiencing a reading slump, and I stumbled upon this one. Although it's still being serialized, it's definitely worth reading! At first, I thought it would be a angst-filled story, and I was prepared to cry for the male and female leads, but to my surprise, the plot is full of twists and turns, and it's also quite humorous. If you're reading it late at night, you'll find yourself getting more and more engrossed, wanting to keep reading like you've just started chewing gum! The author's writing style is excellent, and their imagination is truly boundless. There are many unexpected plot points and many thought-provoking mysteries. The characters are very well-developed, making it a must-read! I especially love the relationship between the sharp-tongued, money-loving, and capable female lead and the male lead, as well as the love-hate relationship between the second male and female leads!

After achieving her goal, she decisively dumped the young master. The heartbroken young master's eyes burned with anger, and he secretly threatened, "Remember, I never go back to an ex." Yu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." Shen Zhichong completely broke down, "Get out, and don't let me see you again." - Three years later, they meet again. Yu Wan has become the true heiress sought after by high society, and also Shen Zhichong's arranged marriage partner. Having only been living a life of luxury for a few days, Yu Wan's vision went black. Shen Zhichong coldly looked at her, "You really know how to play tricks. An arranged marriage with me? Dream on!" "..." No wonder he's the best ex-husband; even after so many years, he's still helping her. Shen Zhichong both hates and loves this ex-wife, maintaining a cold, aloof, and indifferent attitude. Perhaps their ill-fated relationship was too heavy, for they still became husband and wife in name and in fact. Most of the people in Beijing's elite circles ostracized Yu Wan, this socialite they had found halfway through their marriage, and were even more jealous that she could become Mrs. Shen. "What's the use of marriage if your husband's heart is always with someone else?" "He was dumped, but he still can't forget her. Mr. Shen is truly devoted." "Once his white moonlight returns to the country, that person will be in big trouble." Yu Wan couldn't help but think of Shen Zhichong from last night. The man lowered his eyes, concealing his brokenness and pitifulness, and forced a harsh statement, "Yu Wan, I'm warning you, you'll get nothing but a title." Yu Wan frowned, "Then can you get off me first!"
