I was wrong, but ask yourself honestly: didn't you feel even the slightest bit for me?" "If you truly never felt anything for me..." She closes her eyes, lifts her proud neck, and moves to throw herself onto the blade. Who would have thought that as a tear slips from the corner of her eye, the silver sword in Qi Hengyu's hand would clatter to the ground? 2, Qi Hengyu discovers that his foolish, jealous wife has changed completely, and he has no idea when it happened.

Her final secret identity is that of a black lotus who never looks back. #I thought all she wanted was to compete for my favor, but all she cares about is making money :) #Just how many secret identities does she have that I don't know about? #Did the marquis get his face slapped today? He did! His face is swollen! Please add my upcoming novel to your favorites: "After the Fake Young Master Marries the Gloomy Villain" * A sweet story of love after marriage * A delicate, lazy fake young master x a crazy, career-obsessed real villain 1, After twenty carefree years as the young master of the Lu family, Lu Nanxing is suddenly told that he was switched at birth and is a fake young master! The Lu family is short on funds and urgently needs him, the fake young master, to marry the old man from the Fu family, who is well past fifty, to secure financing! Lu Nanxing: ... Fine, I'll marry him! That very afternoon, Lu Nanxing puts on his nearly eight-hundred-degree glasses and arrives late at the agreed-upon cafe. Looking at the old man sitting before him in a wheelchair, his hair prematurely white, Lu Nanxing pushes up his glasses and gets right to the point: "Sir, let's get married!" Fu Changyan, who just celebrated his thirtieth birthday: ...? Lu Nanxing says earnestly, "Don't worry. I don't mind that you're disabled." Fu Changyan's veins bulge as he grits out each word: "But I mind that you're blind." 2, Lu Nanxing realizes he got the wrong person for the arranged marriage the next day, when Fu Changyan and Mr. Fu come to his house together to propose. His father sighs beside him, telling him to choose carefully for the sake of the family. Lu Nanxing agrees wholeheartedly. Mr. Fu may be a little old, but at least they know each other well. When it comes to marriage, the most important thing is that a man is honest. And so... In full view of everyone, Lu Nanxing, without his glasses on, resolutely walks over and takes Fu Changyan's arm. "Dad, I choose Mr. Fu." "Mr. Fu is an honest man." Mr. Fu: ...? Later, lying on a two-million-yuan mattress in the Fu family home and letting its massage function soothe his aching waist, Lu Nanxing finally realizes that Mr. Fu is honest too. It's just that he's old, and doesn't have many honest words to share :) 3, Fu Changyan is a career-obsessed workaholic who has renounced love and devoted himself to his company. He never expected his orderly life to be thrown into chaos one day after meeting Lu Nanxing. The night Fu Changyan is mistaken for Lu Nanxing's arranged-marriage partner, he wakes from a nightmare and discovers that he's living inside a novel, where he is a completely unhinged villain! And Lu Nanxing, the cannon-fodder fake young master, is the novel's only lucky star who never joins the protagonists' side, yet still ends up with a charmed life! To escape his fate as a villain, Fu Changyan personally comes to ask for Lu Nanxing's hand in marriage. During their first month together, Fu Changyan plots with Lu Nanxing: How should they ruin a rival company? Lu Nanxing: Cut down his money tree! Steal his lucky charm! Smash the pixiu statue he's kept for eight years into pieces! Fu Changyan: ???? Three months later... Lu Nanxing adjusts his glasses, which are thick with his severe myopia, and says excitedly, "Honey, I stole their company seal!" Fu Changyan is thrilled and immediately takes out a seal and stamps it: May you be happy together for a hundred years, and remain united forever. Fu Changyan: ... Then he recalls how the novel described lucky stars. Having you is my good fortune :) Theme: Break free of constraints and rewrite your own fate
