After the Vows

Born into a wealthy family, Rong Xiangxi didn’t want to suffer the same fate as her mother—her husband was caught openly cheating on her, and she had to attend a press conference despite a miscarriage. Then, she gently and calmly told reporters, “I’ve forgiven Shaoshan. We have a good relationship as husband and wife. Please don’t be too concerned about our private affairs.”

But that’s the nature of a business marriage: before marriage, you choose profit, and after marriage, you have no choice but to endure whatever you face.

No one will pity you, not even your husband.

The year she took over the family business, Rong Xiangxi ultimately entered into a business marriage. She needed a powerful husband to solidify her position as heir.

Before marrying, Rong Xiangxi set a goal for herself: never fall in love with Shang Chengyu.

Falling in love with your husband is the moment your defenses are completely broken.

Sadly, she eventually fell for this husband who already had someone else in his life.

Irrationally, the person her husband loved was her illegitimate half-sister, Rong Fengqing. Downstairs, her husband and his sister were engaged in an intimate conversation, their gazes lingering. Between them, a world of their own existed.

Up the magnificent spiral staircase, Rong Xiangxi slowly withdrew her gaze.

All she did was bend over and pick up the meowing kitten on the stair carpet. With a calm expression, she turned and left the staircase.

In their first year of marriage, facing the reporters’ aggressive interviews, Rong Xiangxi smiled softly, her eyes softening, “Chengyu and I are more than just a business marriage.”

In their third year, a reporter quipped, “Last week, Mr. Shang gave an interview and said you’re the perfect wife. Mr. Rong, what do you think?”

Rong Xiangxi, still gentle, said, “Ours is just a business marriage.”

Out of the camera’s reach, she withdrew her smile, her lips still curling slightly as usual, her expression shifting from gentle and gentle to cold and sarcastic.

—In a business marriage, if you don’t love me, I won’t force it. I’ll simply slowly withdraw my unwavering love for you.

It is an ok read. Started off well but feels like it has been going in circles for more than half of the chapters now! Given where the story is at chapter 108/114 (main story chapters), I get a feeling that the ending will be very rushed. But I'm still invested enough to see how the MLs end up!

Was wondering if the extras will also be translated. I see that there are some 27 extra chapters that are not scheduled for translation, and also an additional 10 'If' track chapters... more>> (that's probably a take on what the MLs story would have been if Shang Xilin was in the mix). <<less

ML... hmm.

He didn’t chase after her the way I wanted him to.

But that’s exactly why I liked this novel.

The ML is rich, aloof, and cold. So why should he suddenly change just because he’s in love? In so many novels, the ML transforms overnight into a completely different person. But not in this one.

This novel is different.

The ML sees things from another perspective. He changes very slowly, very subtly—almost unnoticeably. And that’s what makes it feel real.

I want both of them to be happy. I really do.

But I don’t know... maybe smart people can’t have a truly beautiful, fairy-tale kind of love.

I’ve read up to chapter 108, and it’s good.

A different theme.

A different kind of heartbreak.
