I Sing of You in This Mortal World

1.

Xin Yan and Duan Wenxiao married for the sake of their families' interests.

In two years of marriage, they spent less than a month together.

On the day Duan Wenxiao returned from an overseas inspection, he went to see his first love after she was in a car accident.

Xin Yan was at the height of her success at a party when she got the news. She left calmly, then cursed Duan Wenxiao out the whole way there.

Duan Wenxiao, you've got some nerve. Weren't you the one who said we had to keep up appearances?

2.

Three days later, Duan Wenxiao woke up.

Xin Yan tossed the divorce papers onto his hospital bed. "Let's get divorced."

Duan Wenxiao didn't move, his face pale.

But even in such a state, he was still composed and distinguished. "Fine. In a year."

"Still trying to use me?" Xin Yan folded her arms and sneered. "You think you're the only one with a first love? I can find my own cinnabar mole. Let's stop holding each other back."

Duan Wenxiao's cool gaze passed over the divorce papers and settled on her. He said evenly, "Go ahead and try."

3.

They agreed to divorce a year later.

But less than six months passed before the Xin family fell into a major crisis, on the brink of bankruptcy.

The once most eligible heiress lost her family's protection and fell into hardship.

By sheer coincidence, Duan Wenxiao's first love returned home around then, celebrated as a beautiful painter.

People in their circle began discussing the hashtag #HaveTheHeartbreakerCoupleDivorcedYet#.

Day 1: Not yet, but soon.

Day 2: They're dividing the assets. Soon.

Day 3: His first love and Duan Wenxiao had dinner together. Soon.

Day 4: Xin Yan's throwing a fit, and Duan Wenxiao's looking for a lawyer. Soon.

Day N: Why haven't they divorced yet!!!

Even his friends were curious. Duan Wenxiao was now powerful enough that he no longer needed the Xin family to bolster his position, especially since they had nothing left to offer him.

"So when are you actually planning to get divorced?" a friend asked.

Duan Wenxiao toyed with his lighter and said coolly, "I never planned to."

In this lonely world, only you are worth singing about.
