The second male lead takes the lead / ex-chases-wife crematorium / marriage first, love later
1. Shen Wenning's love for Jiang Shiyan was an open secret.
She had loved him throughout her entire youth.
On the day she carefully prepared to confess, Jiang Shiyan beat her to it and asked, "Will you be my girlfriend?"
After getting together with Jiang Shiyan, she reined in her temper and tried hard to be a thoughtful, sensible girlfriend, carefully protecting this hard-won relationship.
She fainted from a high fever and was taken to the hospital, but the hospital couldn't reach him.
She returned home in the middle of the night, exhausted, only to see the woman at the center of her boyfriend's scandal leaving his house in a black slip dress.
As the fever left her dizzy, she sent him a breakup message.
2. After dumping the scumbag, Shen Wenning sat in the cold wind and cried until she had no strength left.
Someone walked up to her.
She looked up. Yu Jing stood half-hidden in the light and shadow, his long, pale fingers rolling a cigarette. He gazed down at her with an indifferent expression.
Seeing her tearful eyes made his heart skip a beat.
He wiped away her tears, trying to rein in his usual reckless manner. Awkwardly but gently, he comforted her. "Why are you crying? I got even for you."
3. Yu Jing was a bold, carefree darling of the heavens. If he wanted the stars in the sky, people would be falling over themselves to pluck them for him.
Shen Wenning, on the other hand, was an unloved daughter of the Shen family.
Nobody thought their marriage would work. Everyone was waiting for the day Shen Wenning got dumped.
Even Shen Wenning herself thought so.
Until one day, Shen Wenning asked for a divorce.
He showed no particular expression, merely lowering his eyes as he readily agreed. "As long as you're happy, anything goes."
Shen Wenning thought that a man like Yu Jing would let go without looking back.
But that night, in the dim bedroom, Yu Jing held her easily around the waist and drew her into his arms, his gaze dark.
His voice trembled. "Ningning, I can't live without you."
"We don't have to divorce. Anything you want."
"...I'm begging you."
Shen Wenning had always thought her marriage to Yu Jing was simply a matter of mutual convenience.
Then, by chance, she discovered a childhood photo of herself tucked inside one of Yu Jing's old books.
Only then did she realize that, hidden away from sight, someone had loved her year after year.
