    Description
    Xu Yizhang returned to the age of 23, caressed the platinum ring on her ring finger, and decided to break off her marriage with Han Shen immediately.

    Her mother: “What happened to you and Han Shen? Weren’t you impatient to marry him before?”

    Her father: “The venue and wedding invitations are all ready. Now you’re talking like this? How to solve this problem? Where is the face of your parents?”

    Before she was reborn, Xu Yizhang got married as soon as she graduated. After marriage, Han Shen was so busy that she raised their children alone.

    The group of friends laugh at her and mock her: “Han Shen doesn’t like her at all. She always nags him. As a result, she was given the cold shoulder after marriage and left alone everywhere…”

    After breaking off the marriage, everyone was stunned. “Xu Yizhang broke off an engagement? Why? Does she think the most talented person on campus is not enough for her?”

    “Are you crazy? Don’t want such a good man.”

    “She probably thinks she is a fairy and wants a match with the Jade Emperor…”

    Later.

    Han Shen said: “Xu Yizhang, let’s get married.”

    Xu Yizhang smiled coldly: “Sorry, I don’t want a married life.”

    Han Shen: “How can you love someone and not think of marriage?”

    Xu Yizhang: “Get lost.”

    Han Shen: “What about our previous vows?”

    Xu Yizhang: “Count them as idioms.”

    It’s full of misunderstandings. In the first life,they got married too young and struggled financially and that’s why husband wasn’t able to be around them much. They just recently graduated and they married fast because MC pushed it. The reason why he divorced her was stated in the last paragraph of the final chapter. It said that she was depressed and a bit mentally unstable and (?)began to hallucinate and is suspected of harming the kids(?). Anyway, ML took her to a psychologist and divorced her because she’s unsuitable to be in marriage. ML wanted the kids. In the second life, MC became really headstrong and rejected the advances of the ML. He was really persistent and even kept on visiting her and her parents’ residence. MC’s parents really liked him. When she wanted to move out of her parent’s place, originally she was supposed to move to another place but she ended up living with ML because it was more convenient and the rent he charged was really cheap. ML was about to let go too when he gave her a box of the stuff she gave him. There were tickets there for a trip that they were supposed to go to when they were together and they went ahead and took the trip. Her feelings wavered and in the end, they slept together. Boom she’s pregnant! Now this is the part where I disliked the ML for a bit. Because of her trauma of the past where she lost the custody of her child, she wanted to make an agreement with the ML where she gets to raise her and ML can visit, but the ML disagreed, and forgot what happened but ML threatened to try her in court for the custody of their child (please note that ML here is a lawyer) Of course she’s scared of losing her to him so she compromised with him and they reach an agreement where she has to live with him when raising the child and she can’t meet other men (which she was okay with because she says that she’ll stay unmarried) (it honestly feels like he’s blackmailing her and I hated him at that moment). He treats her well and all but of course she doesn’t fall for it because of the past life. She’s basically scared of falling in love with him again. Whenever she gets a bit of feelings, she gets a hold of herself and distances herself from him. Anyway, misunderstandings occur as third parties try to come between them ( MC’s boss for the MC and ML’s colleague for ML). They both get jealous but can’t seem to communicate it to each other so they’re always fighting. There’re rumours floating around about MC and some bches mock her whenever they see her even when she’s pregnant. Gosh I would’ve loved to see their faces when they learn that it really is Ml’s child because they kept talking about how the kid is another man’s child and how Ml was a bit stupid to take her in. ML’s colleague *third party at the end went to see the baby and realizes that it really is the ML’s kid and surprisingly apologised to MC, and she forgave her. Long story short, the ending was they get together, misunderstandings were cleared, baby was born, ML proposed, and happy ending. ML did not learn of the past life even if there were subtle hints like how she predicted that the baby was a girl,how she expertly chooses the baby items, and how she knew all the ML’s preferences. All in all, story is about a girl who went back to the past with a trauma and some trust issues, broke up with the soon to be husband right before the wedding, created a career for herself, got independent, refused the ML’s advances until she softened up because she felt guilty for continuing to refuse him, got pregnant, got back together, gave birth, got proposed to, and got her happy ending.

    I'm not done with it yet but so far the're some really unbelievable moments.

    1st when she decides to move out of her parents place because she is tired of him always showing up but then moves in with him:ROFLMAO::eek::eek:

    2nd when they take a New Years "Breakup" Trip and he books a B&B with one bed ;):rolleyes::whistle: Very smooth my man very smooth

    Are you certain he doesn't know? There is the scene where she is drunk on new years and spilling the beans and kid snacks.

    He doesn’t seem to think much of it... he doesn’t ask her about it. He just thinks that she hates him because of his past actions. He probably thought that she was too drunk and was spewing nonsense. After her drunk incident, all he thought about was the fact that she said she hated him...

    They probably thought that kid was better off without her because of her psychological assessment... They didn’t even try to help her with her mental problems... the husband just divorced her. The first life was just tragic. She even died after the divorce.

    This is the part that unsatisfactory for me, where she had a psychological problem, and he went to divorce her and took away the custody of the child??? What kind of smart ass is that?? If the goal is to help her, it’s an unbelievably stupid moves to actually abandon her instead of taking her hands and guide her through it. Since I haven’t read this and there’s no spoiler yet for that part, I assumed that he just gave up on her (1st TL). She CAN receive treatment while being married, while being a mother. Unless the other party CANNOT keep up with her mad took the easier way out, which is divorce and taking the child away. At this point I’m more curious in the past life, especially after she died, than the current one. I wanted to know why he decided to divorce her and took the child away.

    We will never know. Author decided to end it after the proposal. No epilogues and side stories about the past. It was actually just a note after the ending where she explained a bit about the divorce. I think he really did just give up on her. AH move right there. Really pitied her... she really loved their child but he just divorced her and took the kid from MC while she was vulnerable. Can’t believe she really got back together with him after what he did to her. Guess she was a bit more optimistic now that she got a career for herself. The pregnancy didn’t help either as it basically forced the relationship with him. St*pid move on her part.

    As such, that probably what broke the last straw for her on the 1st TL. Understandable that people are worried about the daughter to be around her with such a mental state, nevertheless, her love for the daughter could’ve “saved” her instead of taking the daughter away.

    Divorce her because she has mental health issues?! Unsuitable for marriage because she has depression? He’s a total jerk.

    From what we know about mental health, having a strong support system, namely, your family/loved ones, is crucial. Were his feelings for her so shallow in the first TL that his first thought was to divorce her and take the child away? Instead of thinking, maybe, he should be home more, maybe he needs to cut back on his work hours or something.
