After Marrying My Arch-Rival

When Xu Mengzhou wakes up, she finds herself suffering from amnesia, fresh out of a car accident, with her lower leg in a cast.

The good news? The total stunner visiting her at the hospital is her wife.

The bad news? Her best friend tells her that this gorgeous woman is actually her arch-rival.

Xu Mengzhou: “Wait… isn’t something wrong with this picture?”

Her friend snaps back, practically grinding her teeth: “You two used to start a fistfight every time you ran into each other. Then, out of nowhere, you frantically dragged her to city hall…literally begging the staff to stay late right at closing time just to register your marriage.”

Xu Mengzhou is left with a head full of question marks: “…Was I out of my mind?”

Her friend gives her a deeply tormented look: “Honestly? I think you’ve been harboring dirty thoughts about her for a long, long time.”

Dazed and confused, Xu Mengzhou lets her beautiful wife lead her home, where one thing somehow leads to another and they end up tangled in bed. Waking up the next morning, their legs are still entwined under the covers, and warm breaths brush against her collarbone.

As memories of the previous night flood back…her wife’s breathless cries, the tears spilling from the corners of her flushed eyes, and her breathless, broken pleas…Xu Mengzhou’s heart stammers.

Oh no… I really WAS harboring dirty thoughts about her.

Determined to save her marriage, Xu Mengzhou turns into a shameless piece of velcro, clinging to her wife at every opportunity. But during a clumsy fall down the stairs, she lands back in the hospital…and wakes up with all of her memories fully restored.

Her “wife” is none other than Ruan Li…the single most insufferable person in the world, the root cause of why she was stuck as the perpetual runner-up all through their school years. Their marriage was just a cold, businesslike contract! They have zero actual feelings for each other!!!

Xu Mengzhou: “Divorce! I’m getting a divorce!”

Except, the moment she looks up, her eyes land on her arch-rival’s porcelain collarbone…marred with distinct, intensely crimson bite marks.

The word divorce gets completely choked back down her throat.

Ruan Li has a secret, hidden away in her diary.

On page one, she wrote: I want to kiss her.

On the day they got their marriage license, she finally added page two.
