-- The End
Marriage first, love later | Fake relationship turns real | The ex-husband's redemption arc
A sly, playful woman who is clear-eyed at heart vs. a reserved, sharp-tongued gentlemanly scoundrel, a devoted daddy
☆☆
Jiang Tang knows that she and Qi Qinghuai have no romantic feelings for each other. He agreed to register their marriage only to honor his promise to her mother and give her "legal protection" for four years.
No feelings or not, her husband is easy on the eyes, happy to spend money on her, and unfailingly attentive. Maybe this marriage isn't something she needs to end after all.
One time, Jiang Tang dozed off in the back seat of his car. Half-awake and overcome by his good looks, she blurted out, "Qi Qinghuai, I like you..."
Before she could finish with, "How about we try to stay together?" the man, who had kept his eyes closed until then, looked over. His Hong Kong-accented Cantonese was completely flat, clearly showing that he hadn't taken a word seriously. "I remember Miss Jiang likes a lot of things: VCA high jewelry, three-centimeter heels, the red-label Geisha coffee from Hacienda La Esmeralda..."
As he listed them one by one, Jiang Tang remained perfectly composed. Leaning over the armrest, she deliberately put on a cutesy voice. "I like all of those, but I like you best!"
A moment later, the man only chuckled. He didn't say whether he believed her.
To prove that she really did "like him best," Jiang Tang learned as she went, trying every trick to win his favor and pamper him.
Somewhere along the way, she accidentally fell for real...
She seemed to have truly fallen in love with him.
But the man remained unmoved, dead set on ending things when their agreement expired.
-
After the divorce, Jiang Tang got half of the man's fortune.
She should have been happy to become a beautiful young heiress, but somehow she just couldn't feel happy.
That night, a few close friends dragged Jiang Tang to a popular bar.
Under the dazzling lights, handsome male models with broad shoulders and slim waists took turns dancing onstage.
As screams rang out around her, Jiang Tang remembered that her medical licensing exam was coming up soon. Here she was, getting drunk over a breakup. Seven or eight parts drunk, she called the man, unable to hide her tears. "This is all your fault. If I fail the exam, you'll have to support me."
"Okay. I'll support you."
"What if I can't afford to raise a kid someday?"
"I'll raise them."
"Even someone else's kid?"
Hearing how drunk she was, the man's thick brows drew together. He was about to sternly ask where she was when she hung up.
A few minutes later, he heard that Jiang Tang was at a bar, handing out her number to every male model with even a little bit of good looks. Furious, he rushed to the scene. At a glance, he spotted a certain drunken cat surrounded by a pack of wolves, making grand declarations.
"I've got plenty of money. I'll support all of you! If I run out, I'll sweet-talk my ex-husband into supporting you all."
The man with green light shining over his head gritted his teeth and went to grab her. He couldn't bring himself to lecture her, but the drunk cat in his arms bit him first, nearly choking him. "What does it have to do with you, ex-husband dear?"
#You ask what that green light means#
#It means that even after the divorce, he's still expected to support his beloved ex-wife's "friends"#
[Bonus "fun" scene]
Jiang Tang could never have imagined what Qi Qinghuai, a man so ruthless in renouncing love that he could "lock" himself away in a secluded courtyard to raise turtles and tend flowers, and whose emotions were remarkably steady, would be like when angry and out of control.
Even Qi Qinghuai himself could never have imagined that he would one day lose his composure.
That day, Jiang Tang's ex-boyfriend, who had no hope of getting back together with her, cornered Qi Qinghuai. Apparently mistaking him for a rival, he warned him, "I suggest you give up now. She won't like you. She's married."
The man smirked at the provocation. After a long pause, he looked down at his wife's ex-boyfriend and revealed his true feelings for the first time, asking softly, "Then guess who her husband is."
In short: a warm-hearted little angel vs. a long-legged, tsundere German Shepherd

Reader's Guide
1. The heroine was cheated on by a scumbag ex, who pursued and used her. His redemption arc can't win her back, so he gets burned to ashes instead. I won't allow the male lead to have an ex. A man's best dowry is good moral character!
2. At first the heroine pursues the man, then he pursues her. They really did divorce, and they really did remarry.
3. Outside of work, the heroine is a little troublemaker. She really is quite difficult. The heroine drives the romance from beginning to end. She skipped grades and went straight from a gifted youth program to a medical doctorate. If you can't accept this setup, don't force yourself to read it.
4. Happy ending, both leads are virgins, six-year age gap. The man goes crazy for love. The male lead has a redemption arc, but not the kind you might expect. It should be even more satisfying? If it isn't satisfying enough, that's probably a problem with my writing. There is quite a bit of Cantonese dialogue, and I am your personal translator.
5. A fairy tale set in the real world, with no real-life basis. Place names and app names in the story are partly fictional. Please don't associate them with the real world.
6. No fighting or personal attacks. If you don't like it, just click away. No need to tell me you're dropping the novel.
Theme: Comfort often, help always, heal sometimes
Jin, you have no heart, and you are not a shameful thing. Why is the latest chapter locked? [Crying] [Crying] [Crying], the stream of consciousness is also a stream of consciousness [Crying] My fragrant rice, my happy hometown has been locked [Crying]
I have collected this book before, and I accidentally saw everyone's comments today, so I bought Chapter 52 and read it first. The writing is very good in Cantonese. As a Hong Kong person, I feel very comfortable reading it (because I have read many of them before and they were not very well written). Fan Xiang, the phrase "it hurts your lungs" is very expressive, and I smiled knowingly. However, the author only adds a chapter every week, so I might wait until it is finished before reading it.
With "Wedding Invitation Street" playing on my earphones, I typed out this final review. First of all, congratulations to Teacher Yue for completing the main text of this article during the kapok season [Spreading Flowers]. At this point, the main text of the full text is complete.
The text ends at the spring equinox. Their story in the book ends, but the story of their lives is not over yet, but a new beginning.
I read the last chapter with a feeling of saying goodbye to the characters. It felt like I was a passerby in their lives and a witness to some stages. When I reached the fork in the road, I had to wave goodbye. I remember that it was last fall when I first started reading this article. Teacher Yue had already serialized more than twenty chapters. I started commenting on chapter 34. The first comment left on this article was: Looking forward to the heroine drinking/drunk on the phone at the bar, Qi Mouhuai chasing his wife/waiting for updates every day is my motivation. Then there were the subsequent comments. This article can be regarded as the article I read from beginning to end on Xiaolujiang. When I posted the first comment, I don't know if it was Teacher Yue who gave me a like and a red envelope. I thought it was very novel at the time, because I rarely use Xiaolujiang to read articles, and I have not been in contact with it for a long time. Therefore, I consider myself to be destined for this article.
What words should I use to describe qqh and sugar? I think they are lingering and charming. The dual perspectives formed a closed loop. At first, sugar's enthusiasm and qqh's love ignored each other. Qqh felt that it was just an obligation and did not fully bring herself into the "married" role. This was also due to the reasons of her original family. So when the turning point we are talking about is "divorce", qqh also looked indifferent and asked for land and compensation. When Sugar was dragged away by her friends to have fun, QQH went to a bar/bar to pick up someone. She couldn't suppress her possessiveness towards Sugar and started to bite her hard. Only then did QQH chase her wife from the perspective of the second half.
What impressed me deeply about this article was not only the scene where Sugar asked QQH to help her buy underwear in the snow, but also Chapter 46 where Sugar said: One day you can buy a wedding invitation with my and your names printed on it from the Wedding Invitation Street, then I will promise to remarry you. This chapter I am writing about is Xie Anqi's "Wedding Invitation Street". The Wedding Invitation Street where wedding supplies were sold in the past has been demolished. Now there is only Lidong Street. What has been demolished are objects, but what cannot be demolished is love. I also wrote that I think it is very romantic to print two people's names on the wedding invitation. By the last chapter, qqh's drone and carefully prepared wedding invitations have become a closed loop. I think he also wants to be married to Sugar forever, and he still wears the wedding ring that Sugar bought for him four years ago. Even though they got divorced, he can't leave the ring. He's afraid that Sugar won't agree to his proposal, but fortunately, Sugar reluctantly agrees to him.
Qqh is not a person who often talks about "love", but in his actions, he feels that this person loves sugar, so the wind in Xiangjiang takes his place and says he loves sugar countless times.
As a reader, going through his experiences with qqh, I always feel that he and sugar have the feeling of an old-school couple. We are going for a walk, we are going to walk a long, long way, about half the length of Victoria Harbor, and we have appointments to hold hands for as long as multiple traffic lights.
He may not understand amorous feelings, but he is not in a hurry. In his free time, he walks the dog, cooks, grows flowers, writes calligraphy, is tolerant of sugar, and can coax people... I can turn off the phone for you and have a pure soul conversation, or I can only kiss you after the wedding. Visiting relatives and friends, boarding a cruise ship, still holding your hand, proposing for the first time on the cruise ship with sugar, walking around all the street lights in the city, I have a premonition of falling in love! Will the person you love last your whole life? There will be! So, see you in the side story!
Thanks to Teacher Yue for writing qqh and sugar in parallel time and space, ending their old grudges at the spring equinox, and ushering in a grand and bright spring. (The above content only represents my own experience of reading the article)
I meet you in the autumn, and the east wind blows in the kapok season.
2025.03.20. Written on the Spring Equinox
Doctors are very busy during the Chinese New Year, thank you Teacher Yue for your hard work! I originally planned to stay in a rental house in Guangzhou to celebrate the New Year, because I feel soft and come back home to celebrate the New Year. I want to say that I will remember the tears tonight and the stressful moments. The pain, powerlessness and guilt I feel are actually brought to me by my original family. I just came back today, and I happened to have my period. However, now there is no water, I can't take a shower, and there are no matching stools or shoes in the room. I still have to accept it. The Trial of Relatives, I would like to tell other readers not to borrow money from relatives to study, whether it is undergraduate, graduate school or Ph. D., You really should not borrow money from relatives to pay tuition. Because my family did not give me money to study for undergraduate when I was admitted to undergraduate, I said that I did not consider my younger brothers and sisters, so I later borrowed money to pay for tuition. Although my undergraduate degree is privately run, I will feel happy and gratified because I went from junior college to undergraduate by myself. The relative who lent me money treated me as something that could be judged at any time. I was borrowing money to go to school, not to give away my dignity/self-esteem. I don't know how to say this. In fact, the reason why I didn't come back to celebrate the New Year was because I was stressed. When I was riding in the car today, I felt flustered and my hands were sweaty. When I came home, I felt like crying and felt depressed, as if there was a lump in my throat. I didn't have such emotions when talking to other people in the village. Instead, I suddenly got a relaxed context.
There were fireworks outside. I cried in my room for a long time tonight. Tomorrow I will bear all the war and the rest of the time. It's not like I won't pay him back. There is no need to always judge me like this, ask me about my plans, ask about my plans. I went back to my parents to find a new job when I couldn't make money in Guangzhou. However, I don't have a deep relationship with my parents, and I didn't grow up with them. If I go back to my parents, what awaits me is my increasingly uncontrollable stress. I want to be a calm person, but I know it is difficult to shed a lot of tears. No one will ask me what I want to do. They always use their so-called experience and experience to judge a girl in her twenties. I will always ask myself why I am suffering, why I cry, why I am the target of their judgment, and why I am always holding on to me. If I had just borrowed money to pay for my studies, and I never said I would not repay the money, I would never believe in my life that I could not repay the tuition he lent me. I know that I have seborrheic dermatitis (on my face). I also know that if I am anxious or stressed, it will relapse if I return to my hometown due to the climate and water quality. I also brought medicine back, so now I feel a little more relaxed after crying. When I was in Guangzhou, I would not say that I wanted to cry or anything, I could just talk and scold if I felt unhappy. , I feel pain and powerlessness at home, and the main responsibility is always transferred to me. Obviously I should not bear the corresponding responsibility. In the end, I will say that I don't care about her, but I can obviously ask my son to take her to see her. Why do you always have to transfer the main responsibility to me like this? It's really tiring to be so kind.
It is also troublesome for the two brothers to have different surnames.
Blindly guessing that Teacher Yue's master's degree uniform has a gray collar [dog head]
I'm so sorry to see you! 520[Spread flowers][Plus one][Plus one], it's still a familiar taste! Qisheng, you... You have a son. If you want to make some soy sauce, send the son away first. My wife is true love. The son will go first [dog head holding rose]
In the previous row, I was listening closely to the moonlight, shining in the underworld, you will fall into bed obediently, little shrimp... There is also a Cantonese nursery rhyme. It rains heavily, and the street is flooded. My elder brother carries firewood to sell on the street. It rains heavily. The flood street in Guangzhou, brothers have grown up. You must know that it is the most difficult to find money, and your eyes are red and the sun shines...
It really rains every day in Guangzhou now. It was windy, rainy and thundering in the early hours of the past two days. My clothes on the window sill were all wet. I was really angry and couldn't sleep in the early hours of the morning. I felt a deep sense of powerlessness. It was indeed a carefully selected place of exile in ancient times. Our ancestors have certified it. It's so hot every day. I've been going to school and working in Guangzhou for several years and I still feel so hot, humid and sticky. Well, I'd better drink more herbal tea (Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and Liushen Mosquito Repellent Toilet Water Spray have saved my life and I can't live without them!)
As the story progresses, the character slowly separates from the author himself and becomes an independent person. Therefore, maybe the character being portrayed is also in this time and space or another time and space or the life they want. Sometimes the process is more important than the ending, because most endings are like that. No ending may be the best ending. They don't want the ending to follow naturally and let the author continue to write about them.
I wish Sugar and Qi Sheng a happy marriage and a happy marriage for a hundred years! After drinking this glass of wine, the windfall came into hand again. The floor was covered with gold and silver. I raised my glass to the newlyweds and drank from the canal [to make a fortune]
I don't know the explanation, but at the end of this article, you can read it with a relaxed feeling. Maybe it's really fate [Good Luck Lotus]
