He Once Hurt Her With His Arrogance, Now the Cold CEO Pulls Every Cheeky Trick to Win Back His Ex

An uninvited ex shows up out of nowhere. This girl used to share an incredibly happy life with the man she loved. They even went as far as getting their marriage registered, but for some unspeakable reason, they decided to end their relationship. After going their separate ways, Min-hui discovered she was pregnant. Driven by her high pride, she chose to raise the child entirely on her own. Life seemed to pass by peacefully, but suddenly, 5 years later, the two of them cross paths again at a formal banquet. Once the person he loved the most, he now has to watch her sit on the lap of another man with his own eyes. 5 years ago, Shin-chi proposed to Min-hui on a beautiful beach. They used to share an incredibly beautiful romance, but just 3 months later, they tore apart. Today, the two meet again at a party with completely new roles and statuses. Shin-chi steps in and helps his former lover out of a messy situation. He then proceeds to mock Min-hui. He sneers that 5 years have passed, but it seems she has not changed a bit, still shamelessly clinging to a married man. He harshly questions feels the slightest bit of guilt for doing that. He asks if she is really so desperate that she has to resort to this. He even warns her not to say she's going to deceive someone else exactly like she deceived him 5 years ago. Min-hui does not offer a single word of explanation. She only hopes he will forget the past. In truth, the breakdown of their previous marriage was partly her fault. Min-hui watches her former husband walk away with deep pain in her eyes. She wonders if after all this time, he still holds on to so much resentment toward her. On her end, she picks up the phone and calls the man she was just pretending to have an ambiguous relationship with. That man is Cheng Chirong. It turns out Min-hui's son desperately needs surgery for his heart condition, and Cheng Chirong's father-in-law happens to be a leading expert in this specific field. To get him to agree to help, Min-hui had to swallow her pride and play along with Cheng Chirong. His true motive is based on their fierce rivalry. He wants to completely destroy her reputation at this gathering full of prominent business people. She knows full well that Chen Chirong is using this to blackmail her, but for the sake of her son's life, Min Hui ignores absolutely everything else. Shin Chi thinks back to the old days and still feels incredibly furious.
