Mint Obsession

Ye Boyan and Xia Xuntang had known each other for years and understood each other inside out. When their families began pressuring them to marry at the right age, they simply settled for each other.

After getting married, they each did their own thing and went three months without seeing each other.

Their friends said Xia Xuntang was lucky. She had entered the hallowed halls of matrimony without having to suffer any of its hardships. In public, they were a harmonious couple; in private, she was still completely free.

But only Xia Xuntang knew that being left free in a marriage was just another way of saying she wasn't loved. And she happened to be the one who wasn't loved.

Later, Ye Boyan returned from a business trip to find a divorce agreement on the coffee table.

After finishing his last cigarette, Ye Boyan signed his name without hesitation.

Xia Xuntang should have felt relieved, but a sudden emptiness filled her heart.

She reached for the divorce agreement, but he held her hand down.

"Are you happy?"

Ye Boyan blew out a ring of smoke, his gaze cold. "After pretending not to hear or see for all these years, are you happy now?"
