He Went Abroad Right After We Married, but Lost Control When I Asked for a Divorce

Original title: After the Wedding, Mr. He Lost Control and Fell Hard

[Marriage First, Love Later] [Top-Tier Older Man] [Slow-Burning Romance]

Wen Ni was the most overlooked member of the Wen family.

Her survival depended on being careful and always watching her step.

Wen Ni had kept her feelings to herself. Zhou Chiyun left without a word, the Wen family tried to control her too much, and a host of misunderstandings meant that her feelings were never returned.

After that, she no longer dared to give anyone her heart.

Marriage for the sake of a family alliance was a choice she made only after weighing all her options.

He Yushen was the head of the He family, one of the most powerful and influential families in the capital. Everyone feared him.

Marriage was his grandfather's dying wish, as well as a duty to his family.

One day after their wedding, He Yushen happened to hear that Wen Ni had once had a crush on Zhou Chiyun. Considering the potential impact on his interests, he ordered the rumors silenced, though he truly didn't care.

He and Wen Ni would continue living according to their prenuptial agreement.

Everyone thought the two were merely a couple on paper. After all, what genuinely married couple lives in separate countries the day after getting their marriage certificate?

Then came a once-in-a-century blizzard, and traffic was restricted in some areas. He Yushen couldn't reach Wen Ni for ages, then ran into Zhou Chiyun, who was walking her home.

Wen Ni met He Yushen's bloodshot gaze. "I... I can explain."

He Yushen gripped Wen Ni's wrist and pulled her into his arms. His eyes caught Zhou Chiyun looking back at them in the distance. At that moment, his usual composure crumbled completely. "Don't talk. Kiss me."

After that, Wen Ni kept her distance from other men, determined to play the part of Mrs. He with all her heart.

But He Yushen grew more and more jealous and resentful, and came to hate their prenuptial agreement.
