After the Divorce, His Beautiful Wife

#A midlife sweet romance: a rebellious, fiery, disobedient, free-spirited beauty who loves teasing the hero and can have him wrapped around her finger with a single coquettish act × a controlling, patriarchal old tyrant#

The Zhuang family is the most prominent and wealthy old-money family in Hong Kong, and its members can get away with almost anything.

Zhuang Qiting is the fourth-generation head of the family. From birth, his life has been smooth sailing. Wealth, power, and status are all within easy reach.

Naturally, so is a perfect, happy marriage.

His wife may not be gentle and obedient, but she's alluring, sexy, fiery, fun, and clever. He enjoys training her, and always manages to mold her into the perfect partner.

He's used to controlling everything and takes pleasure in setting the rules, until one day

His beautiful wife of more than twenty years, who has borne him three children, asks for a divorce.

“Give me a reason.” He thinks she's only teasing him a little, and smiles with easy confidence on his handsome, mature face.

Li Yarou scoffs, unconcerned. “I'm tired of indulging all your weird kinks, you old geezer. These days I like them young, obedient, gentle, and bro-thers!”

“...”

“I want a divorce! And I'm moving out! You don't get to control me anymore!”

.

When their three utterly useless sons hear their mother has asked for a divorce, they offer their support:

Eldest son: Dad, good luck.

Second son: Ms. Li really doesn't want you anymore?

Youngest son: Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

Zhuang Qiting doesn't take the divorce seriously. He assumes his wife will come back obediently once she suffers a little. That is, until she hires a group of handsome, muscular bodyguards, assistants, and male servants... and countless admirers start appearing around her...

The man who has always controlled everything finally shows a rare hint of panic and unease.

“Sir, please behave. We're divorced now!”

“So you really like draping your legs over your ex-husband?”

Must-read notes:

◆ Both leads are sexually inexperienced from start to finish. A sweet midlife romance, with a five-year age gap. The heroine had a first love, and after the divorce she has male servants, a male butler, and male bodyguards. The hero is pure and devoted to her alone.

◆ The hero is a genuinely domineering, patriarchal older man: strong, handsome, sexy, and intensely controlling and possessive (he really is a father figure, really is a pervert. A reminder: if that's not your thing, don't read it! It will hit all your nope buttons! Seriously, no need!).

◆ A groveling ex, dark jealousy, and lots of admirers for the heroine after the divorce (if you dislike this, don't read!). There may be hugs and simple kisses, and the hero really gets wrecked.

◆ The story includes flashbacks to their romance when they were young (1980s Hong Kong); those chapters are marked with a P in the title.

◆ The heroine loves herself most and enjoys life. She's not the self-sacrificing type. The hero simply loves her more, to the point of madness.

/At heart, this is a romance between the leads. Everyone else is part of their game./

/This is the author's let-loose story. It's wildly over-the-top, and may basically be a comedy!/

◆ The characters and premise were developed in the previous novel, and the first draft of the blurb has detailed time records. Please don't copy. Respect original work, thank you~
