[The Wife Chases Her Husband After Losing Him] [Urban Slice of Life] [Regret] [Second Female Lead Takes the Lead]

It's thrilling to mistreat your husband for a while, until you have to chase after him and beg him to come back.

(Male lead: Chen Yang was adopted as a child by Su Aoning's father, who ran an orphanage. Just before Su's father passed away, Su Aoning's first love went abroad. She drank heavily every day and was consumed by grief. Heartbroken, her father entrusted her to Chen Yang.)

Six years ago, Su Aoning forced Chen Yang to marry her, hoping to make her first love jealous enough to return from abroad.

Chen Yang was injured in an explosion while saving Su Aoning, and lost his hearing.

Holding him in her arms, Su Aoning cried and promised that she would love him properly from then on.

For the next six years of their marriage, Chen Yang looked after Su Aoning day after day, cooking and doing the laundry for her.

Six years later, her first love returned.

Su Aoning told him, "Don't worry. He's deaf. He can't hear a thing."

"You have no idea how sick I am of seeing that dull face of his every day. He cooks and does my laundry, clinging to me like a mangy dog. What kind of man has so little self-respect?"

Later, during an explosion orchestrated by her first love, Su Aoning abandoned the injured Chen Yang and ran to the other man. She believed Chen Yang had hurt him out of jealousy. She even said,

"You were deaf to begin with. Even the worst explosion couldn't make you any deafer. This is all your own fault."

Hearing this, Chen Yang felt utterly humiliated. He made up his mind to take his own path.

He went abroad with his senior schoolmate Jiang Yao to develop biopharmaceuticals.

When Su Aoning realized Chen Yang had left, she finally came to her senses. She tried desperately to win him back, but it was too late.
