Spring Tide Over the Capital at Night

(Gentle, pure-hearted student and self-serving, cold-hearted lawyer; marriage; daily life; married first, love later) Zhao Pingxiao’s coldness is etched into his bones. His marriage to Song Tang was absurd, all because he wanted to fulfill his father’s dream in his place. He looked down on a gold-digger like Song Tang, who had called his father her godfather for money. Even when she devoted herself to playing the perfect wife and eventually let her love for him show, he never cared for it. He thought that at most, at most, he might try to cherish her a little more and slowly grow willing to give her the one-of-a-kind affection no one else could have. Until he discovered that all the warmth and tenderness he enjoyed were merely leftovers from what she had given another man. Worst of all, that man was Chen Jingyuan. The man who had always been unruffled flew into a rage. Determined not to let Song Tang get the better of him, he calmly asked for a divorce. There were plenty of women in the world. He would throw away a woman whose heart belonged to Chen Jingyuan, and he wanted nothing to do with her. * After Song Tang left the city, she never knew that on an unknown snowy night, Zhao Pingxiao, that stubborn, cold-hearted man, had come looking for her. That night, winter snow fell without end, like a wedding bestowed upon pure love by heaven and earth. She and Chen Jingyuan held each other and kissed, wrapped in white, growing old together. The wind and snow soon buried another man’s tears. The coldness he had stubbornly held onto shattered into sharp shards, cutting vengefully into his flesh until the pain became unbearable.
