Divorce first, love later | Dark, obsessive possessiveness | Dog-training romance
1.
After breaking up with her ex, Xin Tong was pressured by her family into a blind date. She had no idea she'd walked into the wrong private room.
She deliberately arrived late and talked nonsense, hoping to make a bad impression.
“I'm really materialistic. I don't split the bill on dates, and I spend money like water.”
The man across from her was drinking tea. His features were refined, his bearing elegant and cool. At her words, he raised an eyebrow, amusement glinting in his deep, dark eyes.
“My money should be enough. There's no need to split the bill.”
2.
Chen Yuchi was a famous up-and-coming tech entrepreneur in the capital, with a fortune to match.
On top of that, he was exceptionally handsome: tall and straight-backed, cool and distinguished. Whenever he attended an event, reporters from every major outlet rushed to cover him.
When news of Chen Yuchi's marriage shot to the top of the trending charts, people dug up countless details. Netizens discussed how he spent lavishly just to make his wife happy.
Yet no one online could find a single clear photo of his wife's face, at most a blurry shot of her back.
Everyone said Chen Yuchi doted on and protected his wife.
Only Xin Tong knew that he wasn't doing it to protect her, but to indulge his dark, possessive nature.
“Tongtong, only I get to see you. That way, no one else can take you away.”
In the darkness, Xin Tong turned her head away and cried. “Chen Yuchi, I'm free to go out and work.”
“Why? I can support you for the rest of your life.”
His love was nothing but a cage of control and possession. Xin Tong felt suffocated and oppressed, and wanted only to leave.
So when her ex returned from abroad, Xin Tong asked him to help fake evidence that the two of them were having an affair.
She knew that someone as proud as Chen Yuchi would never tolerate his wife's betrayal.
3.
After the divorce, Xin Tong went to the hospital to visit a friend and learned that Chen Yuchi had been hospitalized with gastric bleeding in the room next door.
After hesitating for a long time, she decided to go see him.
Chen Yuchi lay in the hospital bed, pale and gaunt, his brow furrowed even in sleep.
Xin Tong stood there for a while, then turned to leave, only to be grabbed unexpectedly.
Chen Yuchi's voice was low and hoarse. “Tongtong, will you come back to me? It doesn't matter if you don't break up with him…”
