My Ex's Life Went Up in Flames After I Ran Off Pregnant

The early free bonus chapters are complete in the author’s collection, My Mr. Zaozao~ 1. Everyone says that Rong Zhen’s partner, Jiang Jili, is cool, handsome, talented, and virtuous, and that he is deeply favored by that powerful man. Only Jiang Jili knows that he is nothing more than a plaything in Rong Zhen’s bed when the latter is in a good mood. In three years of marriage, Jiang Jili has never once set foot in the master bedroom, because he is not worthy. Even when they sleep together, it can only be in his own room. Rong Zhen is like an emperor deigning to grant him an audience. His status in the Rong family is even lower than that of their fierce, domineering Tibetan mastiff. Everyone knows he is afraid of dogs, but no one restrains it. Several times, Rong Zhen has watched coldly as the vicious dog knocked him to the ground. The shock left him with a high fever for a whole week. At an upscale party in Huai circles, something had been slipped into his drink. He collapsed on the hotel-room carpet, gasping in pain, while Rong Zhen, impeccably dressed, leaned on the sofa and played with his phone as he recorded him. Rong Zhen had always treated him like a joke. Later, when Madam Rong wanted a grandson, Jiang Jili became disposable. The daughter of the Qin family was noble and elegant, and would surely give the Rong family an excellent grandson. He placed the divorce papers in front of Rong Zhen. Rong Zhen threatened him in an unhurried voice: “Try taking one step out of this house without my permission.” Jiang Jili left without looking back. 2. After Jiang Jili disappeared, Rong Zhen became the mad dog. He was suspicious and gloomy, like a minefield. Everyone knew that Jiang Jili was the biggest taboo in that minefield. No one dared mention that name in front of him, because Rong Zhen was going mad with longing for Jiang Jili. Every night, he slept in Jiang Jili’s room, trying to find even the tiniest trace of Jiang Jili’s past there, but there was nothing. As if to punish him, the only thing he possessed that was connected to Jiang Jili was that video. The young man’s eyes were red. His fingers, clutching Rong Zhen’s trouser leg, had turned white. Almost choking on his words, he pleaded, “Help me.” Then Rong Zhen heard his own voice coming through the phone speaker: “Jiang Jili, do you deserve it?” 3. A child star named Jiang Chong quickly shoots to fame in China, gaining enormous popularity. Despite his young age, Jiang Chong is cool and composed, with the bearing of a little adult. Some sharp-eyed people notice that his features bear a striking resemblance to the powerful man in the Rong family. The media, not afraid of their own necks, often ask him suggestive questions: “Chongchong, do you take your father’s surname or your mother’s?” Jiang Chong: “My dad’s surname is Jiang.” Then one day, someone leaks a photo of Jiang Chong’s father, a handsome young man with gentle, tender features. Many people are relieved, but the powerful man in the Rong family goes mad. Jiang Jili. He’d recognize him even reduced to ashes. Reader’s guide / Content warnings and preferences / As detailed as possible / If it’s not for you, click away: 0. [A little background] This is a nontraditional face-slapping revenge romance with a redemption arc. It’s very old-school, cheesy, and melodramatic. The tone is “scold the fiercest wolf in the gentlest voice.” At first, the powerful one abuses the little white rabbit, then realizes he’s hopelessly in love and eventually willingly becomes the rabbit’s dog. The little white rabbit doesn’t need to be strong. He only needs to wound the heart with a soft knife, and the most powerful person in the story will submit to him. 1. [About the receiving partner] He’s a very weak, beautiful wife, and the most beautiful person in the story. He’s a delicate beauty many people want to do all sorts of things to. He will never become strong. At first, he is very afraid of the other lead, with the kind of fear that leaves psychological scars. The ending is happy, and he has no psychological or mental illness, including but not limited to Stockholm syndrome. The answer is simply that he once loved him, and it was love at first sight. [Don’t ask, they’re both virgins, they’re both virgins, they’re both virgins, they’re both virgins, they’re both virgins!] 2. [About the pursuing partner] He is at the top of the story in terms of power, looks, and physique. At first, he has no heart and is a mad dog with few morals (underline this: he has no morals! He is not a good person! Don’t expect anything from him!). After the receiving partner fakes his death and escapes, the redemption arc doesn’t start immediately. He looks for a substitute to test his feelings and kisses him once, on the lips. This part is brief, and marks a shift in his emotions, from indifference to gradually going mad and tormenting himself. Later, he becomes the receiving partner’s dog. 3. [About the son] An old-school genius baby, truly old-school, who dotes on his dad and has an extraordinarily high IQ. He can trade stocks at five years old. (Men having babies isn’t scientific anyway, so let’s not question how the old-school baby’s brain works.) He helps his dad hide from the dog dad and is always hostile to him. There will be a confrontation between the son and the dog dad, but a five-year-old is still only five, and the dog dad is the most powerful person in the story, so it’s hard to stand up to him head-on. He’ll grow stronger later. One more thing: there will be a second child, a little angel (not the old-school genius baby). 4. [About the redemption arc] !!!! Highlighted, must read: This is not a traditional face-slapping revenge story with a redemption arc. It has an early and a later phase. Because of the CP setup, in the early phase the pursuing partner realizes he can’t live without the receiving partner, but still doesn’t know he’s in love. He’s driven more by possessiveness. The receiving partner is terrified of him, but can’t fight back, and is scared to the point of breaking down. He’d rather die than be with him. After a major turning point, the later phase begins. There will be amnesia, and the pursuing partner will come to understand that he loves the receiving partner and willingly become his dog. The receiving partner still can’t let go of his resentment toward him. In short, it’s the process of a frightened beauty taming a dog. You get it, right? You love me, but I’m afraid of you. No matter what you do to make up for it, I’ll always remember how violent you were. A soft knife can still cut deep. 5. [About the ending] It’s a happy ending! Absolutely, without question! There’s no other possibility! It’ll be very, very, very, very, very sweet! I’ve said all this, so no one’s going to curse me during the redemption arc now, right? (scratches head) Read the warnings carefully! If it’s not for you, leave! The author is writing a personal fantasy project, completely on impulse! I’ll write whatever makes me happy! It doesn’t touch on any questions of right and wrong! Also! I will not accept any advice on the characters, from anyone, under any circumstances!! I’m writing it this way because this is what I find satisfying! *Highlighting this again: Everything is clearly stated in the blurb. Don’t post fake warnings or start fights in the comments. Ruining someone’s livelihood is very immoral. Please be aware. If you can’t handle it, click away. There will always be people who love this kind of over-the-top melodrama, myself included. Let’s respect one another and not start abusive arguments. Excessive comments will be deleted. Theme: Only by relying on yourself can you gain a more fulfilling life
