"Let's call it quits," Chen Jinyao declared, her voice firm and resolute. She was well aware of her role as a mere side character in this novel world. The male lead had only married her for the sake of business, and she knew that sooner or later, the female lead would make her grand entrance. If Chen Jinyao hesitated to end things now, she would only be setting herself up for heartache in the future. But before she could fully process her decision, something tugged at her delicate wrist, pulling her down onto a pillow. Yan Cheng's piercing gaze bore into her with displeasure as he scoffed, "Only in your dreams." After a night filled with passion and excitement, Chen Jinyao was too exhausted to even lift a finger. As she drifted off to sleep in Yan Cheng's embrace, she found herself in a dream. In this dream, she was an old woman of 80 years. But what puzzled her was why she was still trapped in a loveless marriage at such an advanced age.
