A Scandalous Beijing Marriage

To help her family get through a rough patch, Yuan Shiyue planned to trick Fu Zhanglin into sleeping with her, then pressure him into marrying her. She’d heard Fu Zhanglin was so powerful that no woman dared approach him, and he had no interest in women. She hadn’t expected her plan to work so smoothly. It wasn’t until the day they registered their marriage that she learned his childhood sweetheart, the girl he’d always cherished, was the same person who had bullied her. She felt a little guilty about ruining his romance. But more than that, she felt the thrill of revenge. Maybe she was a little wicked. Fu Zhanglin was even worse. He was always cold and sharp with her. She’d known it. If his childhood sweetheart was someone who’d bullied her, she couldn’t be any good either. No matter. She didn’t like someone like him anyway. She’d divorce him and let them be together. · Everyone in high society knew Fu Zhanglin was aloof and refined, ruthless in his methods, and someone no one dared offend. But no one knew that, to win a girl, he’d sabotaged her family’s business and forced her to offer herself to him in exchange for his help. On the day they registered their marriage, Fu Zhanglin saw her secretly wiping away tears. He thought, There’s no rush. No matter what, she’s already my wife. Until one night at a party, she ran into her ex-boyfriend. When she came home, she asked Fu Zhanglin for a divorce. He glanced at the divorce papers in her hand and crushed out his cigarette. “Either he dies, or I do. Divorce is not an option.”
