My Green Tea Ex-Husband Is Begging Me to Get Back Together Again

Two years ago, amid everyone egging them on, Yu Sushi ended his marriage to Fu Chixu. Back then, everyone said he was a secondhand liability who only cost money. Yu Sushi didn't argue. He silently accepted it all. Two years later, Yu Sushi was betrayed and trapped in a hotel, unable to come or go. After thinking it over, he called that person: his ex-husband. It had been a long time. His ex-husband seemed a lot more mature now, no longer childish and difficult to deal with like before. That said, he still loved making snide remarks, with a bafflingly sour edge to them. "Now that you know I'm coming to get you, the person beside you won't be angry, will they?" "If people see us with our arms around each other, your fans won't demand an explanation, will they?" "The entertainment industry is so scary. Unlike me, I'm genuinely worried about your safety." Yu Sushi didn't quite get it. Three question marks appeared over his head. "Huh?" Why had this guy become so catty? - In the second month after their divorce, Fu Chixu regretted it. Worse than his regret was the way his ex-wife had become far colder than he could have imagined, avoiding any chance of contact with him. When he saw that Yu Sushi had someone new by his side, he became so anxious and jealous he nearly went mad! He secretly kept tabs on his ex-wife and drew up a plan to win him back. After laying the groundwork for over a year, he finally managed to reconnect with Yu Sushi. He hurried to confess and bare his heart, repeatedly telling Yu Sushi that he was better, that he was the best choice. The moment he finished speaking, Yu Sushi, who rarely lost his temper, slapped him across the face. His cheek burned. "Admit it. You're just like everyone else. You think I'm a gold digger, too." "I'm not going to be fooled a second time." * He thought one slap would put an end to Fu Chixu's pursuit. Instead, it only fanned the flames of the grand reconciliation campaign. Fu Chixu became even more relentless about getting back together, sending flowers, money, and career opportunities... No matter how much Yu Sushi threw away, Fu Chixu would replace it with twice as much. And he didn't just beg for forgiveness himself; he dragged his whole family into it. He also became even more shamelessly catty, bragging to everyone he met: "I'm so jealous of you single people with no partner. You can do whatever you want." "Unlike me, I get to have my ex-wife's care." #IfGettingSlappedForBeingColdCountsAsCare# #TwoYearsAfterTheDivorceTheTeaKingHasCompletelyLostIt# #ISaidIdWouldGetBackTogetherIfHeBroughtMeTheStarsAndMoonAndHeExcitedlyToldMeNotToGoBackOnMyWord# A scheming, childish rich heir who goes to great lengths to win his ex back, the pursuer × a composed, levelheaded singer who was mature beyond his years, the pursued ※ Not too heavy.

Please add it to your reading list. Blurb: When Su Jiaming first received the invitation to "pretend to be a couple," he refused. First, he had no good feelings toward Xu Yiwen, that insufferable career man. Second, he was straight and had absolutely no interest in men. But his mother happened to be pressuring him to go on blind dates, so Su Jiaming finally steeled himself and accepted. He concealed his identity as a top agent and moved into the Xu family home as Xu Yiwen's boyfriend. At first, Xu's father thought he was uncultured, Xu's mother thought he wasn't from a suitable family, and even Xu's innocent, clueless cousin didn't warm to him. But that was fine. For one thing, Su Jiaming didn't care at all. For another, as an agent hailed as the best in the business, he excelled at winning people over! When his cousin was bullied, he stepped in without hesitation and scared the bullies into apologizing and swearing never to do it again. When Xu's father had a publishing deal canceled, he made one phone call, and the publisher backed down and offered him a more prestigious title. When Xu's mother was slandered, he quickly called in favors, cleared her name, and secured a huge investment. After all that, Su Jiaming had become the perfect daughter-in-law, the kind who would do anything for her family! Just as he was congratulating himself on having played the Xu family and preparing to wrap up the job perfectly, Xu Yiwen looked at him, utterly baffled. "Pretending to be a couple? That sounds like a fun game. If you want to play, I'll keep you company." Su Jiaming was dumbfounded. At last, he realized he was the one who'd been played. - Liking Su Jiaming was the most selfish decision Xu Yiwen had ever made. He hated his parents' control, and hated even more the idea of growing up and starting a family according to their plans. He alone could decide who his partner would be. He knew his parents' temperaments well, and understood Su Jiaming's ways just as well. He'd been planning for two months. At last, on the day he received another call from his parents pressuring him to go on a blind date, he set his plan in motion. With a meaningful, secret smile, Xu Yiwen booked a flight and showed up at Su Jiaming's apartment, then rang the doorbell. "Are you out of your mind?" Su Jiaming said, looking disgusted when he heard the proposal. "You don't actually have designs on me, do you?" Brooding, scheming younger career man × straightforward, fiery-tempered agent Turning a straight man gay / archenemies to lovers / contract romance / scheming and being schemed against / identity reveal / mother-in-law and daughter-in-law (not really). Those are more or less the key elements. ※ The secondary couple storyline from My Ex-Husband the Tea King Is Begging Me to Get Back Together Theme: Everything unfolds for the best. 2":"A collection of poems used in the story Theme: Archiving 3":"Shen Rucheng was spoiled and arrogant from birth, and hated pain and hardship more than anything. Even the slightest bump would send her running to her older cousin for comfort. Yet she died on the way to a political marriage, shot by a poisoned arrow. After clinging to life for a day, she died, becoming the excuse for war. The poisoned arrow that pierced her shoulder looked familiar. She had seen one like it in the study of her cousin, the Crown Prince. The gentle cousin she loved most. When she opened her eyes again, she was back two years earlier. The Crown Prince looked worried, his voice soft. "I heard you were unwell, Cousin, and couldn't help worrying. I happened to be passing by, so I came to see you." Shen Rucheng: ? Shen Rucheng: ...Ugh. - Lately, the Crown Prince had noticed that his spoiled cousin seemed to be avoiding him. He thought with cold annoyance that he didn't know what she was making a fuss about now, but at least he could enjoy some peace and quiet. Until one day, he heard a ridiculous story: That girl had apparently gone crazy and picked up some barbarian in the street, saying she wanted to marry him. The barbarian was tall and lean, with striking features and green eyes. When he arrived, Shen Rucheng was holding an illustrated book and leaning unconsciously against the man beside her. He peeled a lychee, and she tried it, then frowned petulantly. "It's not sweet." Without complaint, the man ate the rest. So intimate. So infuriating to look at. - In her previous life, Shen Rucheng was bound to a carriage and sent off to marry, with no one to help her. Later, they were ambushed. The poison tormented her until she went blind. All she knew was that someone was carrying her and running. It hurt too much. She clutched the person's hand, tears streaming as she choked out, "Kill me... It hurts so much. I'm in pain." In this life, she was sent into a second political marriage, but someone told her, "Trust me, Chengcheng. Don't be afraid." Later, the Northern Barbarians went to war with the Southern Kingdom. The Crown Prince led the expedition and was captured. Tormented by a poisoned arrow, he came face to face with the man who had taken Shen Rucheng from him. On horseback, Tuoba Yu drew his bow and aimed straight at the Crown Prince's eyes. His features were striking, his expression unreadable, and his gaze as sharp as an eagle's or a wolf's. "I'll repay her for all of this." What people call someone's temperament depends on whether they're loved. If everyone hates you, you're a troublesome shrew. But if someone loves you, you're sweet and adorable... It's not foolishness, but innocence and endearing naivety. It's not arrogance, but heartfelt frankness. Because they love you, everything about you is adorable. 1. The former male lead gets his comeuppance, then the male lead changes. Primarily a sweet story of healing, with a touch of being adored by everyone. 2. A mixed-heritage wolfish foreigner × a spoiled, adorable beauty. 3. Entirely fictional setting, entirely fictional setting, entirely fictional setting. Theme: Work hard at living and change your fate. 4":"The merfolk's greatest treasure, the Soul-Summoning Lamp, can gather the spirits of the dead, but it can only be lit with the blood of the merfolk royal family. To save the Goddess Yu Ying, who fell in battle during the war between immortals and demons three hundred years ago, Jin Yuan, the immortal race's God of War, married Sang Ning, a merfolk princess. Sang Ning was married to Jin Yuan for three hundred years before finally learning that she was nothing but a tool to resurrect the Goddess Yu Ying. Three hundred long years had been no more than a dream. Now it was time to wake up. Amid the ruins of Kunyang Palace, she drove a blade into her heart, crying out with every drop of blood in her voice: Heaven and earth bear witness, the sun and moon can attest: from this day on, I, Sang Ning, sever all ties with Jin Yuan. We owe each other nothing. The God of War Jin Yuan was peerlessly handsome and possessed supreme cultivation. Yet all his life, he wanted only to keep one little girl safe and happy. Content warnings 1. They separate quickly, very quickly. 2. An old-school, melodramatic xianxia story. If you think it's over-the-top, that's the point. Theme: Self-reliance and strength. 5":"++ An unloved princess × a patient, illegitimate daughter + ++ Ever since she was little, Ning Yunhua had known she was different from other women. She wasn't attracted to men; she liked women. She didn't want to marry or have riches and glory. All she wanted was to guard the late emperor's tomb alongside her mother consort after the new emperor ascended, and spend the rest of her life in quiet devotion to the Buddha. ++ But one day, Ning Yunhua happened to meet a palace candidate. The girl had bright eyes and pearly teeth, and was breathtakingly beautiful, like a celestial being. Ning Yunhua recognized her. She was Xu Jingyu, the illegitimate daughter of the Grand Tutor. Ning Yunhua had seen her at a palace banquet three years earlier. + For a beautiful woman with no powerful family to protect her, entering this man-eating imperial harem was practically a death sentence. She was so serene and lovely. How could this palace destroy her? And how could her over-forty-year-old father possibly be a match for her? ++ Since she had saved Xu Jingyu from drowning, and the two of them had already shared such intimate contact, Ning Yunhua had to take responsibility. She told her mother consort that she no longer wanted to spend her life in devotion to the Buddha. She was going to take the throne. She was going to marry Xu Jingyu! Theme: Let the capable rise, regardless of gender. 6":"Inspired by the painting Nighthawks by Edward Hopper "The name of this drink is 'City.' You have tasted the city, and its flavor is nothing but loneliness." This story is a highly personal work inspired by the artist's themes of "loneliness" and "confinement." It does not follow the artist's original intentions in every respect. Includes theological and philosophical elements, with related notes at the end. (The scene depicted in this painting takes place during World War II, in 1942.) Theme: Trying to enter Edward's heart. 7":"Sang Yu was the villainess in a novel. Before starting high school, Cheng Wan read the entire book in a dream. When school began, she met her new deskmate. In time, that villainess became the moon in high schooler Cheng Wan's heart. But the moon above the clouds was cold and distant, and Cheng Wan, heartbroken, chose to leave. Years later, Cheng Wan thought she'd put the past behind her and returned to high society. Then, at a banquet, she encountered the moon from her past once again. Reader's guide: 1. The original story's plot is irrelevant from the start. The heroine's ex must win her back, and the female lead is this story's biggest golden finger. 2. An alternate universe where same-sex marriage is legal. Logic serves the plot. Theme: The people and things we truly love are worth holding on to. 8":"Warning: Two female leads. Alternate universe. Casual writing style. The prose isn't great, so please bear with me. When an up-and-coming young actress meets a fledgling screenwriter, their lives seem to have nothing in common. Without realizing it, however, they begin to fall for each other... With too many unknowns surrounding her, Lin Xiaoqi no longer dared to gamble. Yes, even a gambler who had never feared anything could have a stake she was afraid to lose... "Teacher Lin? Why are you crouching outside? You're home, so why aren't you coming in?" The door opened silently from within. As soon as Amu stepped outside, she spotted Lin Xiaoqi curled up in a ball. Puzzled, she walked over and lifted her head, only to see her beautiful eyes red from crying, nothing like the confident, haughty woman who'd left that morning. Amu pulled down her hoodie and gently wiped away her tears. Looking at her, she smiled and said simply, "Come on. Let's go home." *Couple: A haughty, gentle actress × a cold, innocent screenwriter* "Before I met you, I never thought about becoming famous. But now that I've met you, I'll do everything I can to reach the top of this tower. In the face of this damn society, I'll proudly take your hand and tell the whole world that you belong to me." "You don't need to promise me anything. Just meeting you is already more precious than words can say." Don't miss this! A heartfelt work by the little-known online writer Mu Yin. I hope you'll take a moment to give me a chance. If you think my writing is bad, don't hold back. Let me have it in the comments. Anyway, give it a look. Just one look is fine. I'm actually pretty good at writing bonus chapters, too, so check those out. My writing is still improving in the early chapters, so I hope you'll be kind enough to give the later chapters a chance and keep reading. Thank you all. Theme: A tree that stands above the forest is sure to be struck by the wind; one who rises above others is sure to be criticized by the crowd. Yet the virtuous and the righteous still walk that path without regret, and hold fast to their principles. 9":"My name is Mahito. I'm a cursed spirit born from human emotions.
