Liu Fei has been married for five years. Her wife is attentive, considerate, gentle, and virtuous, the perfect spouse in everyone else's eyes.
But only Liu Fei knows that their marriage is dull and lifeless, as boring as a stagnant pool.
Beneath her wife's refined exterior lies a pile of flaws. She has a mild germ phobia, and her obsessive-compulsive tendencies are downright abnormal. She even sets an alarm during sex to strictly control how long it lasts.
Even when they're caught up in the heat of the moment, as soon as the alarm goes off, her wife pushes her away and coolly says, "Time's up."
Now over thirty and still full of desire, Liu Fei has finally had enough. "Let's get divorced."

Liu Fei is sick of her marriage, and even more sick of Lin Yuqing's indifferent reaction to her asking for a divorce. Lin Yuqing agreed so calmly that it made Liu Fei feel like their five years together had been a joke.
Even worse, although she and Lin Yuqing had reached an agreement, the mandatory divorce cooling-off period meant they still had to put up with each other for another thirty days, loathing the sight of one another.
Liu Fei made up her mind: as soon as the cooling-off period ended, she and Lin Yuqing would part ways for good and never see each other again.
At the start of the cooling-off period, Liu Fei said, "Don't get too close to me. We're getting divorced soon."
Some time into the cooling-off period, Liu Fei said, "Lin Yuqing, my chest hurts. Rub it for me."
Later, Liu Fei said, "We're getting divorced soon, which means we aren't divorced yet. What's wrong with a kiss?"
Faced with Liu Fei's bold advances, Lin Yuqing flushed from her neck to her ears. She swallowed hard, turned her face away, and said, "Let's go to the bedroom."
When things got heated, Lin Yuqing instinctively went to set an alarm again. Liu Fei's face turned black as a pot. "Throw that damn alarm clock away!"
Lin Yuqing paused, then obediently did as she was told.
Later, the two of them often kept going until dawn, never getting enough of each other. With sore legs and an aching back, Liu Fei would grit her teeth and think, Is it too late to fish that alarm clock out of the trash?
