* Falling in love with my ex-boyfriend after an arranged marriage
A heartless, scummy woman x a devoted, scheming man, rekindled love, reunion after a long separation, falling in love after marriage
After causing trouble for the umpteenth time, Li Chu's family can no longer bail her out and prepares to marry her off for a business alliance.
At the same time, the head of the Pei family announces his return to the country, abruptly interrupting the power plays.
The prominent families grow restless, each secretly plotting to climb into the Pei family's good graces.
Li Chu and Pei Jingzhi once had a romance that ended without closure.
Everyone says Pei Jingzhi used to dote on her more than anything.
Then they suddenly broke up, and Pei Jingzhi went abroad for three years.
At a matchmaking event, someone deliberately splashes wine on Li Chu. Furious, she goes somewhere out of sight to wipe it off.
"After leaving me for all these years, is this really all you've amounted to?"
A pair of gleaming black leather shoes with thin soles appears in her view. Above them is Pei Jingzhi's youthful, distinguished face.
Pei Jingzhi glances leisurely at the man not far away. With gold-rimmed glasses and an elegant yet roguish air, he speaks in a flippant tone. "Li Chu, kiss me in front of him, and I'll help you."
-
Under pressure, Li Chu has no choice but to enter an arranged marriage with Pei Jingzhi.
Everyone thinks Pei Jingzhi came back to get revenge for Li Chu's betrayal all those years ago, and waits to see her make a fool of herself.
Even Li Chu thinks so.
But that night, the rain outside is pouring.
The villa is brightly lit. A camisole nightdress lies in disarray over the young woman's snow-white body, while Pei Jingzhi bends over her neck.
A cool drop falls against her neck. Li Chu hears Pei Jingzhi's hoarse voice: "Chu Chu, what am I supposed to do with you?"
It sounds like a sigh, like resentment, like defeat. But the one who loves more is always the first to give in.
In this relationship, he is the one who loves without being loved in return.
All that resentment comes down to this: you don't love me enough.
- There are at most thirty-one days in a month, but I love you until the thirty-second night.
