My Ex-Husband Is Actually My Childhood Friend?

[A gentle yet strong-willed legitimate daughter × an obsessive, amnesiac powerful official | groveling pursuit | false substitute | reunited after a breakup | she runs away while pregnant]

Jiang Yun, the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, defied her parents and resolutely married Huo Jingtang, the youngest powerful official in the capital.

The only reason was that he had the same face as Xie Yu, her childhood sweetheart who had died.

On their wedding night, she lifted her veil. “I know you resent me, Lord Huo. How about we make a deal? Give me a child. Once it’s done, I’ll divorce you and never come looking for you again.”

After they married, they each lived their own lives. They only saw each other when they shared a bed, with none of the warmth of a married couple.

Two years later, Jiang Yun got what she wanted. She left a divorce letter and vanished from his life without looking back.

Huo Jingtang was shrewd and aloof, and always kept his emotions in check. After weighing Jiang Yun’s proposal, he agreed.

He shared her bed on schedule and left on schedule, never giving her a second glance.

Because during a passionate moment, he’d heard her call out, “A Yu.”

That was when Huo Jingtang understood: he was nothing but a substitute.

One day, two years later, he returned home and found the courtyard empty, with nothing left but a divorce letter.

Huo Jingtang felt no relief. Instead, his head throbbed violently, and he collapsed.

Memories of the past came flooding back. The first thing he did after waking was go look for Jiang Yun.

Huo Jingtang searched for four years, finally finding Jiang Yun in Jiangnan.

He approached her, only to see her shielding the little one behind her and pointing a knife at him. “Huo Jingtang! What are you doing here?”

Huo Jingtang’s eyes were bloodshot. Fighting back tears, he said, “A Yun, I’m Xie Yu! We agreed to move to Jiangnan together and live in seclusion, away from the world. Have you forgotten all of it?”

#Huo Jingtang: Thought he was a substitute, but turns out he’s the real deal!

#Jiang Yun: What on earth are you babbling about? My beloved is long dead! Don’t think you can fool me!
