[The whole story is rather bittersweet. It probably won’t be long, and it has a happy ending.] [A sunshine-like bottom at first, later a gentle designer × a reserved, self-possessed, rational actor top] (Manuscript in progress / I’ll start posting when it reaches 150 bookmarks!!)
Yun He Ran loves Qi Yi very much.
They went from an online romance to meeting in person, then registered their marriage at twenty-one. They held a small wedding back when Qi Yi was still unknown in the entertainment industry.
They had flirted, been passionately in love, and repeated “I love you” in each other’s ears over and over.
But they still couldn’t make it through the seven-year itch or the long-distance relationship.
The enormous, always-quiet house, coworkers constantly whispering behind her back, messages that went unanswered, and daytime calls that Qi Yi’s assistant always picked up...
Yun He Ran suddenly no longer knew what the point of marriage was.
During the honeymoon phase, Yun He Ran had plenty to talk about with Qi Yi.
Now, Yun He Ran didn’t know what she could send her that wouldn’t be boring, or how to make it seem as if they still told each other everything.
Yun He Ran had always been passive in social situations. It was only after meeting Qi Yi that she was willing to take the initiative, because she liked her so much.
But now they were both busy, and they barely talked at all over the course of a day.
Some people might think Yun He Ran didn’t know how lucky she was. Qi Yi had earned so much money, and their home had grown from an apartment of just a few dozen square meters to a three-story villa. What was there to divorce over?
But Yun He Ran was willing to leave with nothing. She didn’t want a thing.
She had prepared the divorce papers long ago and was just waiting for Qi Yi to come home.
-
Everyone online knew Qi Yi was married, but her spouse was so well protected that no one knew who she was.
Unexpectedly, Qi Yi’s marriage trended again, this time because paparazzi photographed the two of them entering and leaving the civil affairs bureau.
Even after they registered their divorce, Qi Yi held her ex-wife protectively in her arms, keeping the paparazzi from capturing her face.
When Yun He Ran saw the trending topic, she remembered what Qi Yi had said to her that day.
The usually composed woman’s lashes trembled as she said softly, “Could you hold me one more time?”
