[Brothers competing for the girl + faux sister-in-law relationship + stealing someone else's girl]
Before she even graduates, Jiang Wanyue secretly marries Lu Chen, the man she's had a crush on for years.
She thinks she's incredibly lucky. Her family background and looks are nothing special,
yet she gets to be with someone as outstanding as him.
But after the wedding, Jiang Wanyue wakes from her dream and has to struggle through life with a husband who's hot and cold, a father-in-law who looks down on her, and an arrogant, unruly brother-in-law.
She barely manages to keep this life going for two years. Then Lu Chen's first love returns, and Jiang Wanyue learns that she's nothing but a laughable stand-in.
She gets her divorce papers and has just left the civil affairs bureau when her phone rings. It's him again.
She is overjoyed, but it turns out he wants her to go to a bar and find Lu Yi, who's still not home.
"What? Didn't you say you and my brother were as close as siblings? You can't even keep up the act now that you're divorced?"
His cruel, sarcastic words send her anger spiraling out of control.
When she wakes the next morning, she's covered in red marks, and her brother-in-law is lying beside her.
Once she's clearheaded, she destroys the evidence and runs, determined to cut ties with her ex-husband's family.
But Lu Yi finds Jiang Wanyue and pursues her relentlessly,
while Lu Chen seems to regret the divorce and wants to win her back.
The two brothers still seem to get along like the best of friends in front of her,
until one day she comes back unexpectedly
Jiang Wanyue: Stop! You two, quit fighting!
*
Lu Yi has always hated people who are unfaithful in marriage,
but he despicably fell for his older brother's wife.
His sister-in-law only has eyes for his brother. She even treats Lu Yi as her little brother because she loves his brother.
Lu Yi hates the affection that leaves him feeling helpless, automatically ruling him out as a possibility.
He resents his brother for taking her for granted and hurting her again and again, and he longs to take his place.
At last, his chance arrives.
[Bonus Scene]
After the divorce, Lu Chen finally realizes he's long been in love with Jiang Wanyue.
He knows she's had a crush on him for years, so surely all he has to do is coax her a little and she'll come back.
But when Lu Chen arrives at his ex-wife's new home with flowers, his younger brother opens the door in his pajamas.
"Hey, bro. What do you want with my girlfriend?"
Staring at his younger brother's mocking, guarded expression, Lu Chen crushes the bouquet in his hand, drawing blood from his palm.
