A twisted, ruthless male lead x a heroine who claws her way back from the brink
Bar owner x social affairs investigative reporter
Romance blurb:
Xia Li and her husband got together through a matchmaker. He was young, handsome, gentle, and considerate, but aside from being compatible in certain ways, they never truly let each other into their hearts.
“Differences in our relationship” seemed like a flimsy reason for divorce. So she resorted to a crooked trick, forging a diagnosis to make her husband back down. That night, before she could break the news after getting home, Jing Chuan handed her a notice saying he had terminal cancer.
“I only have half a year left.” Jing Chuan looked at her and said in a low voice, “Could you stay with me?”
Xia Li: “Huh?”
*
Jing Chuan realized that Xia Li was thinking about getting a divorce.
She was the person he had coveted since childhood and finally won after going through countless hardships. Unless he died, he would never let her leave him, no matter how despicable the means.
His despicable methods included acting vulnerable, pouting, clinging to her, and pretending to have a terminal illness.
His acting was superb and the results were excellent. They became even more clingy than they had been right after getting married, and then waited together to see whether they would part by death or divorce six months later.

Plot blurb:
++++++Five years ago, Xia Li was an intern reporter. She followed her mentor to a bar called “Shenyuan” to investigate the strange disappearances of young women. But they found little, and the police also lost the trail.
Later, her mentor died in an accident, the police officer who had worked on the case retired in despair, and Xia Li was transferred to another post.
Five years later, another bar called “Shenyuan” opened by the Jiawu River. Its mysterious owner was her husband.
P.S. 1. Younger male lead, post-marriage story, not long.
++++++2. A story about everyday life, half romance and half plot. I think the romance will be very sweet and satisfying. The younger guy is great, and a little crazy.
++++++3. Please give the story a favorite.
Theme: The fog will not lift, but I will not leave.
