Why Hasn't My Husband Divorced Me Yet?

In her previous life, Zhong Wanwan married Li Xiuyan before he reclaimed his true identity. One day, imperial edicts and rewards came pouring into the capital. Li Xiuyan, who had been lying low in Jiacheng County, was suddenly revealed as the young heir of a prestigious marquis's household in the capital. From then on, everyone envied Zhong Wanwan. They said that despite her humble birth, she had struck it lucky and married an extraordinary nobleman. On the day Li Xiuyan left Jiacheng County, Zhong Wanwan dressed up, ready to go with him to the capital. But when the oil lamp finally burned out, the only thing that arrived was a letter of divorce. After that, Zhong Wanwan was forgotten completely. ///// Afterward, Li Xiuyan rose swiftly through the ranks, becoming someone no one could reach. As he soared to success and enjoyed a smooth official career, she remarried amid a storm of gossip. When his power held sway over the court and he ruled with an iron fist, she lived quietly in the inner chambers, cautious in all things. When everyone turned against him and the emperor grew suspicious, she had already lived a long and peaceful life, at ease with her fate. In life, Li Xiuyan had everything he wanted. But after he died, his corpse was hung above the city gate for all to see, exposed to wind and sun. No one knew how long those bones had hung there when, one day, a furtive thief appeared beneath the gate, rousing Li Xiuyan's ghost. From his lofty perch, he looked down at the little woman from years ago. Her hair had turned white, and in the darkness she carefully gathered his scattered bones and gently wrapped them in the fabric closest to her skin. The woman murmured softly. Unable to stop himself, Li Xiuyan's ghost drew near and heard words that finally let him release his regrets and willingly enter the cycle of reincarnation: "My husband, I've come to take you home." ** When Li Xiuyan opened his eyes again, he had been reborn in the days just after he and Zhong Wanwan married. Looking at his beautiful new bride, he liked her more with every glance. He resolved that in this life, they would never part and would grow old together. That night, with her warm, fragrant body in his arms, Zhong Wanwan glanced toward his study, hesitated, then cautiously asked, "My lord, you haven't written a word of the divorce letter in the study for three days now." A note: 1. Both leads are reborn. In their previous life, while he was alive, the male lead never loved the female lead and treated her like a tool. He was utterly vile. 2. After his death, his soul spent a long time with the female lead, and he fell in love with her only after he died. 3. The whole story is about him chasing after his wife, facing daily torment and having his ashes scattered every meal. Theme: Meeting is fate.
