[The male lead will not change. Please read the guide before diving in!!!]
With his astonishing business acumen, Jiang Yubai, the second young master of the Jiangqiao Group, swallowed up the business of the Li Group, his biggest competitor, and seized the right to inherit the company from his own older brother. In one fell swoop, he became a major figure in the business world, someone everyone treated with wary respect.
He was handsome and came from a powerful family, the man most sought after by wealthy young women.
But no one knew he'd once had a secret marriage.
His wife was none other than the youngest daughter of the Li Group, the company he had brought down.
Li Hua always thought Jiang Yubai loved her. They had been together for years, from college through their working lives. Blinded by love, she married him despite her family's fierce opposition.
What she didn't know was that it had all been a carefully laid trap, designed to take over her family's business.
Only after the Li Group went bankrupt did Li Hua realize the depths of his ambition and how terrifyingly calculating he was.
At last, she came to her senses, left behind divorce papers and a pregnancy test report, and went far away.
Years later, they meet again in a foreign land. Jiang Yubai sees her holding the hand of a little child. Guilt and joy well up in him as he says hoarsely, "Huahua, I've been going mad searching for you both all these years. Come home with me."
Li Hua smiles coolly. "Sir, you've got the wrong person."
Before Jiang Yubai can say anything else, a man who looks strikingly like the child steps in front of him. "Please let go of my wife."
Reading Guide
1. Classic melodrama. The male lead will not change. The main story has a tragic ending, while the extras have a happy ending.
2. The male lead is heartless in the beginning, ruthless and cruel, and will later grovel on a hellish quest to win her back. Guaranteed to be heartbreaking.
3. Neither lead is a good person. Readers with high moral standards for the protagonists may want to skip this.
4. The male lead is sexually inexperienced, while the female lead is not. This involves spoilers, so no detailed content warnings are provided. If you want spoilers, check the comments.

Pretends to be sweet, but is secretly twisted girl X gentle, obsessive older brother
Shen Zhinian has loved Song Qingyan for ten years.
When she was ten, she saw him for the first time and wrote in her diary:
[Someone like an older brother came to our house today. He's so handsome. He's mine now.]
He was aloof and refined, a good child in the eyes of the adults and a top student in the eyes of his teachers. He reserved all his tenderness for her.
He practiced piano with her, helped her with her homework, took the blame when she got into trouble, carried her to the hospital when she came down with a fever late at night, and remembered every one of her birthdays.
Until the Shen family went bankrupt, her beloved father died, and she was trapped by his side.
Only then did she realize that beneath his refined, handsome appearance was a devil's heart.
For ten years, Song Qingyan cherished Shen Zhinian like the apple of his eye.
Then, in a single night, he pushed her into the abyss.
Later, he reclaimed the family fortune, and all his enemies were dead.
Yet he knelt at her feet, eyes red, and said:
"Zhinian, why don't you... hate me?"
"As long as you're willing to look at me, it's all right if you hate me."
Only then did she realize he had hated her for ten years.
And only then did he understand he had loved her for ten years.
But the moment the moonlight fell into the abyss, it could never again shine into their eyes.

It took me one night to read it. I rarely leave comments on Crematorium articles, but I have such mixed feelings about this book that I couldn't help but want to say a few words. It can be seen that the author's writing style is quite good, and many places are very graphic. Except for some climaxes where the emotional outburst is awkward, everything else is fine.
The male protagonist is as the text says, cold-blooded and cold-blooded, and does not hesitate to use any means to achieve his own goals. I remember reading many books on JJ about this kind of character, but none of them showed a sense of hypocrisy. When I read it, I felt more than once that he can really pretend to be serious and tolerant, and that he is worthy of doing great things. Because he relied on the female protagonist to rise to power, he must please her at all costs. Other articles only focused on the inner hatred of the male protagonist. , Even showing off his face, torturing and treating the heroine badly in all kinds of ways, which is very inconsistent with reality. Who really relies on others to get the upper hand and can't bear to say anything... Also, the change in the male protagonist's later period when he knew that the heroine was getting married was a bit abrupt. I have always thought that a person who worships power would suddenly kneel down and directly disclose the Jiang family's methods of framing the heroine's family. Isn't it a bit unreasonable? However, this idea didn't stick with me for long. After all, it was a crematorium story. Who would want to see the male protagonist always being superior if he didn't slip on his knees? (PS I think he didn't suffer much except being scolded for publicly exposing the heroine's family on the Internet. I vaguely felt that this was his way of dealing with other members of the Jiang family. After all, a year later, he directly took the position of chairman).
In the early stage, the heroine has a love brain, but she is not completely in love. She is a little wary, but not much. I think she is a rich girl. She is used to seeing scheming men, so she is a little wary. At the same time, she has not experienced it personally, and she loves the hero deeply, so she is easily deceived. I felt sorry for the heroine from the beginning to the end, especially when her abortion hurt her body. As a woman, I felt suffocated just reading the text. When the male protagonist found her five years later, he kept stalking her with a condescending attitude. At this time, I felt that the female protagonist's mood was too stable. If I had been disturbed and tit-for-tat with my ex-husband, I would have gone crazy and killed everyone. Also, the person I finally fell in love with again later died and became pregnant with a child (I would like to add that I think the portrayal of the male lead is not very good. I can see sparks between the heroine and Lu, but I can't see the one with Yi...) I really feel that the heroine is too miserable, her husband is dead and she is pregnant with the child. I really don't agree that this is a man-torture novel...
There is also the issue of whether the crematorium is strong or not. I personally feel that it is not enough. In the early stage, he did not chase the heroine at all (on the surface) but kept competing with the heroine. I remember that when the hero changed from aloof and humble to humble, it started at chapter 60. In the final analysis, it was too late for the hero to change his attitude. If he had been humble and courted the heroine from the time he met the heroine after five years of separation, it would have been easier until the end. There is also a reply from the heroine in the later stage. When the male protagonist returned to City A, I read that the author said that the real crematorium was coming, and I was really looking forward to it. But except for those few chapters, I only saw the female protagonist's wavering, a sense of spiritual victory, and the smiling face of the male protagonist. I just hope that in the future, the female channel's crematorium videos will not harm the heroine's body, and I will love her more and more!

It gave me a bit of a copywriting scam feeling. I ordered it all so that I could skip chapters and read comfortably, but I couldn't stand it at all. . . .
Love that cannot be loved, love that falls in love but dies young, love that is deceived and then redeemed, three tragedies in one book. The ending may be the real ending. The heroine has seen the last two love affairs so thoroughly that she cannot forgive them.
Just saw this, so cool!
Even though I was pregnant with your child, I also want to thank you for agreeing to let him be born. I thank you sister. (PS I'm not scolding the author, I'm scolding the male protagonist's pua)
After reading it, I feel that the author is a scumbag's mother, who made the heroine weak and brainless.
Although it is true that Huahua cannot carry on with her memories forever, she still feels sorry for Pei Ziyi, such a good person. Oh, what a pity.
The abuse is to the point, but it's not abuse for the sake of abuse. It's a reasonable HE. I like it very much! ! !
Alas, although people have to move forward, doctors are gradually forgotten
Why is Aunt Chen still accusing the heroine? She should be allowed to know the truth
