The Seventies Villainess Wants a Divorce, and Her Gentle Officer Husband Panics

[1970s, Marriage Before Love, ten-year age gap, sweet, well-behaved young woman × gentle man] The darkest moment of Liu Chunyi’s life came when she was eighteen. First her parents passed away, then her grandfather died. After accidentally hitting her head, she discovered she was the female supporting character in a book. In the story, before dying, her grandfather entrusted her to an old friend he’d fallen out with, the devoted second male lead. After marrying him, she made him the center of her life. She wanted to have a child to bind them together forever, and drove away every woman around him without caring who was right or wrong. When she learned he had once gone on a blind date with the female lead, and that his family had pressured him to make an exception and divorce her for the female lead’s sake, she did everything she could to hurt the other woman. When the truth came out, Liu Chunyi died after accidentally being hit by a car, condemned by everyone around her. Even after death, she was remembered with contempt. After her family died, Liu Chunyi was surrounded by predators. To stay alive, she had no choice but to marry the devoted second male lead. Remembering how the story ended, she saved money to leave while keeping her head down and playing the dutiful wife. She would wait for the female lead to return. But once she’d saved enough and asked her husband for a divorce, he said: “The Xu family has never had a divorce. If you really want to leave, I’ll have to die first.” Xu Huaichuan was nearly thirty when he married a woman ten years younger than him. She was beautiful and resilient, but there was one problem: she was afraid of him. He had never once heard her use an affectionate name for him. Nervous and distant, she only called him, “Officer Xu.” It left his heart aching, but he couldn’t do anything about it. He thought his wife was young and that they had a long future ahead of them. He could wait. But he never expected her to ask for a divorce. Xu Huaichuan sighed. His little wife really wasn’t well-behaved.
