The poor first wife is busy with all the household chores, but Lord Liu hasn't even glanced at her in a long time.

Han Fengyou is always so calm and gentle, doing all the work for someone else, watching him marry his new wife. Perhaps, his heart is already dead. The servants sighed, "If his heart is truly dead, that's for the best. I'm afraid he'll be haunted by memories, and the sight of him will trigger painful memories." A flash of red caught his eye. This was the fourth red invitation Liu Chenyuan had sent him—the same wedding invitation, but a different woman. This was his connection with Liu Chenyuan over the years, and his heart sank instantly. He had endured those years, but he knew he wouldn't last much longer. That person was right before him, yet it felt like a lifetime ago. Han Fengyou: "Why did you do this?" Liu Chenyuan smiled: "It's a man's nature to be fickle. You're a man too. Have you become like a woman, jealous after being the wife of a marquis for so many years?" As Han Fengyou's silent figure receded into the distance, suddenly, without warning, he collapsed to the ground.
