After Divorcing the Cold Beauty

[Main story complete]

Qin Xian has been secretly in love with Xin Lu for years. When she unexpectedly learns their families are arranging a marriage between them, she eagerly agrees.

Even though the marriage is ultimately meant to benefit both their companies.

After the wedding, she remembers everything related to Xin Lu and works hard to create surprises for her in their marriage.

She buys her favorite flowers, dresses according to her tastes, and joins her in trying desserts she would never have eaten before.

Qin Xian changes herself to become the kind of person Xin Lu likes, hoping that one day Xin Lu will fall for her.

She doesn't want their relationship to become public, so Qin Xian never tells anyone outside who her wife is.

Xin Lu expects them to fulfill their marital duties once a week. Even when Qin Xian is tired and doesn't want to, she still tries her best to satisfy her.

In front of other people, they act as if they don't know each other. No one knows the truth about their relationship.

In private, Xin Lu lets her warm smile fade and treats her with the utmost coldness.

It isn't until Xin Lu's unattainable first love appears that Qin Xian realizes her wishful thinking really was just wishful thinking. Something she dislikes won't suddenly become something she loves.

There is always someone who gets special treatment.

When they divorce, Qin Xian still gives Xin Lu every chance to save face.

But she never expected to lose her memory.

Xin Lu has always done as her elders told her, so she agrees to the marriage arranged by her family. She doesn't like Qin Xian, and she hates how Qin Xian is always making excuses to get close to her.

After the divorce, Qin Xian disappears from her life completely. Little by little, she creeps into Xin Lu's thoughts, until Xin Lu finds herself thinking about her all the time.

One day, after a meeting, Xin Lu gets a call from an unfamiliar number.

“Hello, are you a family member? Qin Xian has been in a car accident.”

Xin Lu rushes over and finds Qin Xian unconscious. After looking after her for several days, she watches Qin Xian wake and open her clear eyes. A puzzled look crosses her face. “Who are you?”

Xin Lu lies: “I'm your wife.”

The lie grows bigger and bigger, until one day Qin Xian regains her memories.

“Ms. Xin, we're divorced. You took advantage of my amnesia and deceived me for months. That should have satisfied your little obsession enough. We shouldn't see each other again.”

Xin Lu grabs her sleeve, her eyes rimmed red.

“...I regret it.”

Mo Wei has always liked Zhu Xunwen. By a twist of fate, Aunt Zhu chooses her to be Zhu Xunwen's companion.

From high school through university, her role never changes.

To outsiders, they are always inseparable. But in private, Zhu Xunwen, who is so warm and gentle in public, is always cold toward her.

In their graduation year, Aunt Zhu demands that they marry. Mo Wei is overjoyed, believing it means they'll become even closer.

After the wedding, she does everything she can to meet Zhu Xunwen's every demand, hoping that one day Zhu Xunwen will love her.

Three years into their marriage, she still hasn't received even a shred of kindness from her.

By chance, she overhears Zhu Xunwen telling a friend who has returned from abroad, “How could I possibly fall for a woman that greedy for profit?”

Mo Wei turns ice-cold. The next day, she goes to see Aunt Zhu. The next time she sees Zhu Xunwen, she hands her the divorce papers.

Zhu Xunwen hates being controlled, and that makes her hate Mo Wei too, the person her mother brought in as a playmate in name, but who is actually a child bride.

She has thought about driving Mo Wei away, but never expected her to ask for a divorce herself.

After Mo Wei leaves, Zhu Xunwen suddenly can't get used to her absence.
