Qin Zhenzhen seized the opportunity to request a divorce letter, and although it pained him, he found himself reluctantly agreeing. Her tireless support for his family weighed heavily on his decision.
Moreover, a sense of pride compelled him. If she no longer loved him, he reasoned, he should release her from their marriage.
However, as he prepared to pen the divorce letter, the situation underwent a sudden transformation. She expressed a desire to feign a loving couple status with him, all for the purpose of dealing with the Jiang family.
In that moment, joy overtook him, and he recognized that he might have genuinely fallen for her.
He also resolutely decided that if his love for her deepened to its core, he would not let her go. After all, who had incited the initial conflict between them?
He had been acting all along, but she remained oblivious.
