After Miss Ji Thrives on Her Own, Her Aloof Ex-Husband Loses Control and Begs to Reconcile

[Cool-headed, highly intelligent heroine + reserved hero who always minds his manners + groveling pursuit after losing his wife + hero goes mad begging to get back together]

After six years of marriage, Lu Juanli had always been impeccably proper and never crossed a line. Ji Yun thought they would go on living together with mutual respect, until Lu Juanli cheated on her with a young woman.

Ji Yun stayed by his side and helped clean up his messes. Only when he was on the brink of death for Bai Wei, and she received the long-overdue critical condition notice, did she realize that even the aloof Lu Juanli had a wild side no one knew about.

At the hospital, she saw him gently comforting Bai Wei, who was curled against his chest. He had even set aside his pride for her. Ji Yun's heart turned to ash. She took off the “Heart of the Ocean” ring that symbolized their arranged marriage, sold off her shares, and demanded a divorce without looking back.

Their interests were deeply entwined, and Lu Juanli was certain Ji Yun would never leave him.

But when Ji Yun had made a name for herself, a man beside her put an arm around her shoulder and looked at Lu Juanli provocatively. “Yunyun, do you know him?”

Ji Yun replied coldly, “No.”

The man could hold back no longer. He pressed her against the wall, inch by inch, his voice low and seductive. “Mrs. Lu, I haven't signed the divorce papers.”
