[Male Rivals + The Pursuit After the Divorce]
On their wedding anniversary, Meng Wan hands over divorce papers because her husband of seven years has cheated on her.
When she confronts him, Ji Yunting scoffs. “It's just a lousy necklace. You owe being a rich man's wife half to Lin Lan!”
Meng Wan sneers back, “If being a full-time wife is so wonderful, let Lin Lan do it.”
But Ji Yunting still thinks she's just throwing a tantrum and waiting for him to make it up to her.
He does try, but not very hard.
Ji Yunting is certain Meng Wan can't leave him.
Until one night, he receives a bloodstained dress and an ultrasound report. At last, he understands.
Their love, which began in school uniforms and was meant to end in wedding gowns, has reached its end.
Five years later.
Meng Wan returns with a child. She's become a rising star in architecture, with countless admirers by her side.
Ji Yunting watches the little boy who looks just like him call someone else “Dad”…
He instantly loses it and corners her. “Meng Wan, I'm not dead yet. Why are you letting my son call someone else Dad?”
Meng Wan calmly replies, “You've got the wrong person.”
Later, he hears that the other man is about to propose.
Ji Yunting goes completely mad and storms into the venue, smashing everything in sight.
Amid the chaos, his son covers his little face in disgust. “Dad, stop crying! Uncle already took Mommy to the state banquet!”
