[The Ex-Wife Chase Is a Crematorium, Second Male Lead Takes the Win]
The year Chi Huan turned nineteen, she learned she was only an adopted daughter of the Chi family. They had taken her in and given her a home out of charity because she looked somewhat like their biological daughter, Chi Wan, who had gone missing. Now Chi Wan had returned, and her replacement had been thrown out.
No one wanted her, but at least Song Yu liked her. They had grown up together, and everyone envied her for having such a wonderful boyfriend.
But on her birthday, Chi Huan saw Chi Wan sitting in Song Yu's arms, lighting a cigarette for him.
"A Yu, I know you only see her as a substitute. Now that I'm back, shouldn't you break up with her?"
The man exhaled a ring of smoke. Beneath the haze, his sharply defined jaw looked defiant. "Wait a little longer. The Chi family kicked her out, and she has nowhere to go. Let her stay with us for a few more days."
Chi Huan felt as if she had fallen into an icy abyss. That very night, she moved out of the gilded cage the man had prepared for her and vanished from his world for good.
No one expected that after Chi Huan left, Song Yu would go mad.
On a stormy night, Song Yu pounded on Chi Ruan's door, pleading, "Huanhuan, please come out and see me, okay?"
The door opened. A tall, broad-shouldered man stood before him in a pure white bathrobe.
"Uncle?" Song Yu stared at him in shock. "Why are you here? Where's Huanhuan?"
"I just bathed her. She's asleep." The man's thin lips parted, his deep, pool-like eyes distant and indifferent. "You should call her Auntie."
Chi Huan thought Song Mocheng had married her only to appease his elders.
Only later did she learn that Song Mocheng had coveted her for years.
The day she got together with Song Yu, Song Mocheng's heart had been torn apart, and he had suffered unbearable anguish.
The crematorium gets ground to ash.
The heroine's perspective is a marriage-before-love story; the hero's perspective is a secret crush come true.
