Jian Mo is framed by her gambling-addict brother; after losing her innocence in one night, her father falls to his death and her mother suffers a heart attack and falls into a coma, upending her family. With nowhere to turn, Gu Beichen, young master of the Gu family of Luocheng, proposes a hidden marriage—he only needs an "obedient wife"—and Jian Mo agrees for the money. For two years after the wedding, she endures his scandals and family power games as his legal wife, gradually falling despite herself in this contract game. After an unexpected pregnancy, Gu Beichen appears publicly with a mysterious girlfriend and asks for a divorce, and Jian Mo signs and leaves with dignity. Yet after the divorce he keeps intruding into her life, drives away her suitors, and hounds her with "you're responsible," drawing them into deeper entanglement through workplace storylines such as architectural design bids.Editor's review
A typical wealthy-family hidden-marriage, chase-the-wife CEO story. The opening hooks readers fast with strong conflict—one night of lost innocence and a family destroyed—and the beats of two hidden-marriage years, pregnancy and abandonment, then divorce and pursuit carry strong emotional tension, well suited to satisfying, angsty reading to pass the time. The heroine's forbearance and her design career add some sense of growth, but the characters are formulaic and the misunderstandings heavy; the logic doesn't bear scrutiny, and readers seeking realism will be pulled out of the story.Who it's for
A good fit for
- Readers who like wealthy-family and contract-marriage tropes
- Readers who prefer marriage-first-love-later and chase-the-wife-in-hell arcs
- Web-romance readers who want light serial reading in spare moments
Not a good fit for
- Readers who dislike melodramatic misunderstandings and heroines being mistreated
- Readers seeking polished writing and rigorous logic
- Those sensitive to openings involving coercion or loss of innocence
Reading tips
- Read the first two chapters to decide whether you can accept the high-conflict opening
- Treat the hidden marriage and post-divorce pursuit as the core appeal; don't demand realism
- Watch the heroine's workplace and design storyline—it sets the book apart from pure angst
