I'm Breaking Free from Your Palm

{Please, fairies, add my other novels, Twilight's Radiance and Don't You Dare Fall for Me, to your favorites!}

Qing Ge had been in love with Du Tengfeng since she was seventeen, all the way until she turned twenty-two. To get closer to him, she even entered the entertainment industry.

Lately, female stars kept showing up at Du Tengfeng's office. And then there was his insufferable half-sister, who kept insulting and mocking her. Qing Ge felt uneasy.

She was going to confess for the third time, giving herself one last chance. If he turned her down, she'd let go.

"Either be with me," Qing Ge said, holding back her tears, her sharp nails digging into her palm, "or find someone for me to fake a scandal with."

Du Tengfeng froze, then let out a scornful laugh. "Can't you have a little self-respect?"

He picked up his phone and made a call. Du Tengfeng personally chose someone for her to be linked to in a scandal.

Her heart was completely broken.

When Qing Ge returned to the country, Du Tengfeng blocked her at the door, his eyes bloodshot.

"Could you please stop coming to see me?" Qing Ge said coldly.

The man seemed unable to believe his ears. He jerked his head up and stared at the woman before him, who seemed wrapped in a layer of icy thorns.

"No." His voice was strained and trembling, his face pale with regret. "I'm sorry. Give me another chance."

Aside from Du Tengfeng, Qing Ge had only ever liked one other man, and that was a celebrity crush. Du Tengfeng had felt a twinge of jealousy, but never took it seriously, until Qing Ge went abroad and became friends with Xi Mu.

One day, Du Tengfeng opened the door and saw Xi Mu standing face-to-face with Qing Ge. Keeping a straight face, he asked a question he already knew the answer to. "Who are you?"

Xi Mu raised an eyebrow and answered his own question with another. "Her boyfriend?" Then he asked, "And who are you?"

Du Tengfeng let out a cold laugh. "Well, this is awkward. I'm her husband."

Hearing that, Qing Ge went to stand beside Xi Mu and looked at Du Tengfeng. As coldly as he'd once treated her, she returned his own words to him. "Please have a little self-respect."

A love-struck woman who has seen through the world * a steel-straight man determined to win her back (both virgins)

Theme: It's satisfying to hurt your wife for a moment, but chasing her back is hell. Always be a decent person.
