Summary

A marriage contract, and I married Shen Mochen, the man I had secretly loved for ten years.

I thought he had always been cold and heartless, never imagining that he, too, had once given his heart to someone—only that devotion was never meant for me.

My heart turned to ashes, and at last I handed him the divorce agreement: "Let's divorce."

He looked at me, his eyes deepening: "Since you have doubts about our marriage, I don't mind consolidating it."

......

"Shen Mochen, there is nothing left between us!"

"Then I'll create something between us."

Editor's review

This book opens with ten years of secret love and a marriage contract, and tells of the disappointment and push-and-pull after marriage upon discovering that the man she married has given his deep affection to another. The core appeal is the delicate emotional buildup: the heroine goes from full expectation to utter despair as she hands over the divorce agreement, while the hero responds by "consolidating the marriage," creating typical emotional reversal tension. The narrative focuses on testing and maneuvering within the relationship, with concentrated conflict and strong immersion—suitable for readers who enjoy angsty, deeply emotional love stories and the married-then-in-love trope. Volume One focuses on establishing the characters and emotional tone; the conflict has just begun, leaving room for later development. Note that the emotional logic is rather dramatic, and the hero's shift between "coldness" and "deep affection" relies on the premise to drive it forward; readers seeking realism or averse to heavily premise-driven angst may find it hard to empathize. Overall, this is a tightly paced, emotionally intense opening to a romance, best read in one sitting through to the emotional turning point.

Who it's for

A good fit for

Readers who enjoy the married-then-in-love and secret-love-comes-true romance tropes
Readers who prefer high emotional intensity and strong relationship push-and-pull in angsty love stories
Readers looking for a tightly paced leisure read they can finish in one sitting
Romance fans who accept dramatic emotional setups and value immersion

Not a good fit for

Readers seeking realistic marital logic and lifelike emotional portrayal may find it unrealistic
Readers averse to misunderstanding-driven, push-and-pull angst may tire easily
Readers hoping for light, sweet, conflict-free stories are not the best fit

Reading tips

Read Volume One first to establish the characters' emotional tone, then decide whether to continue, to avoid breaking off mid-read and hurting the experience.
Pay attention to passages showing the heroine's psychological shifts—this is the most immersive part of the book and worth reading slowly.
At the key divorce-agreement scene, you may revisit earlier foreshadowing to make sense of the logic behind the hero's change in attitude.
If the push-and-pull affects your mood, read in segments rather than finishing the conflict-heavy chapters all at once.

FAQ

Is this a sweet romance or an angsty one?

It leans toward angsty push-and-pull. The heroine secretly loves for ten years yet loses heart after marriage; the hero seems cold on the surface but has deep feelings elsewhere. There is plenty of conflict and misunderstanding, with high emotional intensity but not a light tone—best for readers who can accept relationship maneuvering.

Does Volume One complete the story?

No. Volume One mainly establishes the relationships and emotional tone. The divorce agreement and the hero's "creating something between us" response are only the beginning of the conflict; the story continues in later volumes, so readers should be prepared to follow the series.

Is the hero's deep affection meant for the heroine?

From the information in Volume One, the hero once gave his heart to someone else, and that devotion was not directed at the heroine—this is precisely why she loses heart and hands over the divorce agreement. How their relationship changes later requires reading on to find out.
