Kisses After All These Years

After five years of secretly loving him and three years of marriage, Jiang Yuzhi and Gu Huaizhou had a marriage everyone envied. But only she knew that Gu Huaizhou could never let go of his deceased beloved. He even refused to let her accompany him to pay respects at her grave. When Jiang Yuzhi caught sight of the face beside Gu Huaizhou, one so similar to his beloved’s, she finally gave up and left behind divorce papers. After she left, the man who had always kept his emotions in check turned red-eyed and stopped her, begging again and again: “Please, don’t divorce me. I love you.” Jiang Yuzhi curved her lips in a faint smile. “But I don’t love you anymore. What are you going to do?” . After her divorce, Jiang Yuzhi ran into Fang Zhi again at a hospital. The man she had once treated like a younger brother wore a white coat. His thin glasses concealed his sharp features, and he smiled warmly. “Hello. Do you need psychological counseling?” “Half price for friends.” “Big sister, for you… it’s free.” . Later, after they got together, a busybody came up to Jiang Yuzhi to gossip. Their words were full of barbs, mocking her poor taste for turning down a wealthy CEO and choosing to spend her life with a young doctor instead. Jiang Yuzhi sent them packing. She wasn’t short of money. She liked who she liked and didn’t care what anyone else thought. Until one day, she happened to glimpse a business magazine belonging to a colleague. The man on the cover was handsome and dashing, with an air of wealth and nobility. He did look a little familiar, though… . That evening, when she got home, the man was wearing an apron and flourishing a spatula as he cooked. Jiang Yuzhi strode over with a cold expression, grabbed his ear, and demanded fiercely: “Tell me! Just how much have you been hiding from me?”
