The gentle and proper heiress of the Song family married the rakish heir to the Jiang family.
Everyone in high society guessed there had to be a hidden reason.
But no one knew that Song Yizhi had personally handed the agreement to Jiang Linglan.
Even her friends teased her: "How could Song Yizhi ever fall for you?"
Jiang Linglan raised her hand to show off her wedding ring and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It looks great."
"Her assistant picked it."

In public, they were "madly in love." At home, an unbridgeable chasm lay between them.
The wives fooled everyone, even themselves.
Later, they went their separate ways.
One evening, after a dinner party, Jiang Linglan opened the rear car door.
Her former wife sat inside, impeccably made up in a backless evening gown.
Jiang Linglan kept her eyes straight ahead, letting the cold air pour into the car. Her face was expressionless as she said, "Get out."
The woman who was usually so aloof leaned toward her, her eyes glistening. "A Lan, you really don't want me anymore?"

They kissed until they fell onto the sofa. Just as things were heating up, they both failed to hear the sound of someone entering the door code.
Her biological younger sister walked in and turned bright red. "Ah!"
For the first time, Jiang Linglan spoke coldly to her sister. "Turn around."
She grabbed the suit jacket nearby and covered Song Yizhi with it. She had just started to get up when she was pulled back.
Song Yizhi's eyes brimmed with affection, her cheeks flushed pink as she buttoned Jiang Linglan's shirt one button at a time.
Her sister grew impatient waiting and turned around, only to see this scene.
Her jaw dropped. She couldn't believe that Yizhi-jie, usually so aloof and ethereal, was acting like this!
