The wealthy and handsome Young Master Zhuang married Su Anning, an ordinary, gentle girl, leaving everyone stunned.
Her parents said, “Anning, appreciate your good fortune and treat Zhuang Yan well. He’s a good son-in-law.”
Su Anning nodded firmly. “I’ll always treat him well. If I don’t, may the heavens strike me down!”
[The Happily Ever After of a Prince and Cinderella]
He thought she was gentle, willful, adorable, and good-natured. He loved her so much he couldn’t bear to let her suffer the slightest grievance. To him, she was the perfect wife and mother.
She also thought she really was gentle, willful, adorable, and good-natured, a wonderful person worthy of love.
Until one day.
When Zhuang Yan saw his beloved wife shopping with a man much younger than him, he felt as if the heavens had struck him down!
After Su Anning returned, she wept. “I love you. You’re the one I love. He’s just an unimportant man! You’re the only one I love!”
(I’m giving your own words back to you exactly as you said them. Don’t get mad. I didn’t get mad at you back then.)
Su Anning thought they would have to divorce now. What a shame. This was a marriage she didn’t want to give up!
She packed her things and hurried to find a place to live. Oh, freedom! Son, come give Mommy a kiss! I have a child and a life to look forward to! I’ve done my duty as a woman and kicked my own husband to the curb. Could anything be happier?
But Zhuang Yan swallowed his anger and agreed to turn a blind eye for once. “I love you. Let’s make things work from now on!”
Damn it! We’re still staying together after all that?
[Meng Ziyue] The head of the Fire Phoenix Group, which she built from nothing. Her parents are from a wealthy, influential family. She’s young and accomplished, just a little too young, with a fiery temper! She’s always hoping Zhuang Yan will get divorced. You won’t? Fine! I’ll come bother you every day!
[Lu Zhenhai] His position makes it inconvenient to say what it is, but he also hopes Zhuang Yan will hurry up and get divorced. He even advised Zhuang Yan not to put up with this, and to dump a woman like Su Anning. Don’t worry. If she bothers you or demands living expenses after the divorce, I’ll take responsibility for not keeping her in line.
The male lead must be in a one-on-one romance.
