Xiao Cheng’s eyes seemed to blaze with anger. He didn’t even look at Guan Ling. He slightly c*cked his head towards Jiang Nian’s side instead to ask, “Can you fight?”

Jiang Nian was already very angry when she heard Qi Tongrui’s words, so when she heard Xiao Cheng’s question, she immediately understood his meaning. She opened the door of the dressing room and rushed inside.

By the time Guan Ling regained his senses, the two women were already in the middle of a scuffle inside.

I died. This Guan Ling protection squad have me on my knees.

was instead of focusing on each other, the story twisted up so badly it needed cannonfodders in order to show the world how much they love each other. It was kinda disappointing to add brainless characters (one apparently an Ivy League graduate with attitude problems and one a renowned CEO) to show how they "made it work". *Sighs* oh well~ I gave a three-star rating because it delivered what it should nad made me feel things... Sadly it fell off somewhere down the middle.

the thing is that they're both so caught up trying to do things for the other, they forget to actually look at one another. who isn't guilty of doing that even once? the MC takes time away from the ML and runs off to another country. here, he reflects a lot on their marriage and how he feels about his spouse. the first three chapters covers this. it's a bit of running away and a bit of genuinely needing space to think to himself. the problem is he takes a little too long that it may appear as him punishing the ml. he turned off his phone for this entire duration without letting the ML know he even left. the ML was devastated. I was quite worried that the author would somehow make this into a dogblood novel scene by having MC catch ML with someone in bed but thankfully, this author is cultured and understands this isn't the right place lolol. I think the MC and the ML have traits that people would typically be annoyed by, yet, as you read, you can't help but feel for them. the author makes you understand why they're the way they are. my favorite part about this novel has to be the fact that despite them having the 7-yr itch, there was no resentment. from there, you can feel how deep their love for each other is. they're just lost, confused, and worried about the other and losing them because they can't imagine a world without them in their life. this hurt me greatly. the two have their own unresolved issues within themselves, but they know they'll be okay.

the MC needed to hear the ML say how he felt about him more, but the ml's love language is more of physical affection, proving his feelings with actions rather than words.
