The second male lead gets the girl // He chases his wife to the crematorium, but fails to win her back // No getting back together after a breakup
Blurb:
Huo Shu is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Pingyuan. She is gentle by nature, with skin as smooth as jade and a graceful figure.
She had followed Pei Yuliang for many years, and was certain he loved her deeply.
She had always waited for him to propose.
Then one day, she suddenly received a note saying that Pei Yuliang would meet a woman in the woods east of the capital at the end of the month.
She didn't believe it, but she couldn't help growing uneasy. On the day in question, she slipped out and saw Pei Yuliang embracing a woman, their posture intimate.
She held back from confronting him right then, but after returning home, she remained downcast for a long time, coming up with endless excuses for Pei Yuliang.
After that, the second, third, fourth, and fifth notes appeared.
And every single thing they said came true.
Huo Shu finally saw Pei Yuliang for who he was. She decisively cut ties with him, never imagining that he would then try everything he could to get her back.
Hmph.
Men.
Pei Yuliang thought Huo Shu had been in love with him since she was young, so how could she simply stop loving him? She was obviously just playing hard to get. He figured he might as well play along, but when he saw a well-dressed man standing in front of Huo Shu, he suddenly came to his senses, overwhelmed with regret.
Lu Mingting had thought that if the two of them were a perfect match, he naturally wouldn't interfere. But he discovered that Pei Yuliang was a petty man, insatiably greedy.
In that case, Pei Yuliang couldn't blame him for using any means necessary.
