Lovers on a Break

From school uniforms to wedding gowns, Xuan Lan and Xu Ling spent six years building their marriage.

Xu Ling was a good man, disciplined and organized. He had every milestone and stage of his life under perfect control.

Of course, he'd achieved what the world called success: a successful career, a happy family, and a beautiful wife whose heart and eyes held only him.

That's what Xuan Lan thought, too, until she found his digital journal.

"September 15, 2018. It's time to date someone. Romance is part of the college experience."

In October 2018, Xu Ling and Xuan Lan started dating.

"June 2020. Xuan Lan is wonderful. We're a good match. It's time to get married."

In July 2020, during graduation season, Xu Ling proposed to Xuan Lan.

"January 2026. You're going to get divorced."

All the love in her heart was just one part of his plan. With tears in her eyes, Xuan Lan typed that entry into the journal.

Ding

A notification popped up on the computer desktop, from the digital journal he hadn't used in a long time.

The man behind the screen stared at the words "get divorced" and let out a scornful laugh. He'd gone to so much trouble to make her his wife, and now she wanted a divorce.

Too bad. He wouldn't let her go so easily.

Xuan Lan once came across a popular online post. The poster asked: If your husband gave you lots of money every month but never came home, would you be willing to accept that?

Without hesitation, Xuan Lan clicked no. As if! She was young and beautiful. She wanted lots of money, and lots of love, too.

Too bad Xu Ling didn't love her.

Both leads are virgins. Happy ending.

Please note: Don't let the serious blurb scare you! This is about a sweet, spoiled little troublemaker tormenting her brooding ex-husband. They both love each other very much; they just show it differently. The divorce is punishment, lingering attachment, playing hard to get, and an embarrassingly sweet, lovey-dovey game.

The male lead has been plotting for a long time and carefully scheming. He's determined to make his wife his, and he enjoys being lovingly disciplined by his darling Xuan Lan during their divorce.

Blurb for the upcoming new novel below

Zhi Mei is a comic artist. She spends all her savings on an apartment in a ghost-town complex, and every day her only task is to stay home and work on her comics.

No friends and no social life. That's her everyday routine.

But then one morning, she wakes up to find a man lying beside her pillow, insisting that he's been her husband for two years.

Zhi Mei is absolutely certain that she hasn't lost her memory, transmigrated, or dreamed it all up.

He is very handsome, with a hot-nerd look, slightly drooping double-lidded eyes, pale skin, and a lean, toned build. There's even a small mole beside his nostril. Every detail is exactly to her taste.

"Her husband" is gentle and considerate. Every day, he carefully prepares three meals for her, patiently wakes her when she oversleeps, does all the housework, and hands over his entire salary.

As the days pass, Zhi Mei begins to wonder: Is she really living in the real world?
