After an accident, Lu Nanxi suddenly became the prospective young mistress of the prestigious Guan family, and Guan Rui's fiancee.
The man she had schemed against let bygones be bygones. He stood up for her and put scoundrels in their place in public, giving her plenty of face, while at home he was patient and considerate.
Happiness had arrived so suddenly that Lu Nanxi naturally fell for him.
It wasn't until the day of their engagement, with the banquet hall full of guests and the groom absent because he'd gone to find another woman, that she realized her custom-made gown had turned into a clown costume.
In his eyes, she was nothing but a knockoff.

Lu Nanxi ended their relationship decisively. Guan Rui didn't find her until several months later.
She attended a banquet with another man's arm in hers, smiling brightly as she greeted Guan Rui like a stranger.
In the long, quiet corridor, he blocked her path, struggling to suppress the turmoil inside him. "Come back. I can keep helping you."
She smiled brightly. "Too bad you're no longer any use to me."
The author only considers these the potential landmines: none of the main characters are good people, and nobody in the book is perfect.

The first version of this blurb was screenshotted on October 28, 2020. It might change later, but the author is terrible at writing blurbs, so don't expect much. More sweet than angsty, and not a standard groveling-after-the-breakup story.
My next book will be A Three-Line Love Letter. Here's the blurb. Please add it to your reading list:
In their third year of marriage, Lu Mian's husband had become someone she found repulsive to keep, but couldn't bear to let go.
Getting rid of her husband, Wen Siyuan, with grace and without a painful fight became her top priority.
She went on wild spending sprees and treated Wen Siyuan coldly, but nothing worked.
In the end, she could only give him a taste of his own medicine.
Seeing traces of intimacy on her, Wen Siyuan gripped her by the throat, eyes bloodshot. "Lu Mian, you can't treat me like this."
Lu Mian spoke softly, as if comforting him. "Does it hurt? It'll pass. I got through it, after all."
After the divorce, Lu Mian received a large settlement and joined the ranks of wealthy women, making everyone envious.
Men were only toys. She decided she wouldn't love anyone, and would use her ex-husband's money to find handsome young men. If she got tired of one, she could replace him. If she was unhappy, she could replace him. If she had no reason, she could make one up. What could be better?
But Han Shu, the unwitting pawn she'd used to push the divorce along, just wouldn't disappear.
One night, after returning home drunk, Lu Mian found Han Shu blocking her doorway. Under the cool light, he narrowed his eyes at the pretty young man supporting her. "Hand him over to me. You can get lost."
Before getting together with Wen Siyuan, Lu Mian had once torn up a letter she'd treasured for three years.
It was written in Han Shu's messy handwriting:
Wait for me.
Theme: The protagonist longs for a happy life.
The male protagonist lost contact at the engagement party. He doesn't feel guilty or thinks it's a big deal. He blames the female protagonist for canceling the engagement. He's out of his mind.
Is the heroine forgiven now?? Is this the end in a hurry?
The male protagonist has no trust in the female protagonist at all, and he won't go to the engagement. It's not just Su Qiang who drags him, he just believes in Su's photos and doesn't want to go. It's not just a misunderstanding between the male and female protagonists, it's true that they haven't solved the existing problems.
For the first time, the male protagonist saw himself making a mistake, and in turn taught others
After the female protagonist leaves, the male protagonist is still angry with her? Isn't leaving the heroine alone with such a big deal like an engagement not enough of a reason to break up? What are you thinking about?
I don't know how to do it. Once trust collapses, it's really difficult to build it up again, especially for someone like the heroine who grew up in her native family environment. She really gets suspicious over the smallest things, and needs others to give her enough patience and love. Seeing now, the male protagonist doesn't have it.
Come on, write well. The hero is surrounded by idiots. He is also a bit stupid without realizing it.
The male and female protagonists don't trust each other now, probably because they don't love each other enough! After all, it doesn't take long, maybe it will get better in the future!
Tsk, what should I say? I don't want to sympathize with the male protagonist, I think he still deserves it, and I don't know what he is doing.
It's been a while since I've seen an update. I came in and found that it's finished here. I'm looking forward to the author's next article.
