   The female lead smokes, and is both aloof and gentle. 🍀 ① The marriage between the male and female leads is an arranged marriage. At the beginning, the female lead wants a divorce, and the male lead agrees. Both the marriage and divorce are handled by the female lead's best friend, a lawyer (a cooling-off period was even scheduled in advance). The female lead is a wealthy heiress and also a reporter. She is independent, strong-willed, clear-headed, and capable. The male lead has people to take care of. At the beginning, the female lead wants a divorce; she wants it, and no one can stop her. The male lead is hypocritical, arrogant, and stubborn. I like the later part where the female lead goes through a "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" saga. [I also highly recommend it!]
