I Gave My Heart to a Snake; Now I Show My Fangs in Midlife
Jiang Chen, the sole heir to Xingyue Group, hid his billion-dollar fortune all for the sake of love. For six years of secret marriage, he willingly lived as a stay-at-home husband, handling all the housework, caring for his wife and daughter, and covering every household expense. He quietly paved the way for his wife Bai Qian’s career, pouring his heart into sustaining their family. Yet blinded by vanity, Bai Qian fell for the sweet talk of the scheming Gao Xu, gradually becoming cold, selfish, and ungrateful. On their wedding anniversary night, Bai Qian abandoned Jiang Chen to spend the whole night celebrating Gao Xu’s birthday, and even brazenly moved Gao Xu into their home. Her snobbish, harsh mother not only refused to mediate but always took Gao Xu’s side, constantly belittling Jiang Chen as a worthless freeloader. What hurt Jiang Chen most was his daughter Niuniu. Manipulated by her mother and grandmother, the girl grew distant from her biological father and even publicly called Gao Xu her new dad, shattering the last trace of warmth in Jiang Chen’s heart. Heartbroken and disillusioned, Jiang Chen stopped holding back and firmly handed over the divorce papers. After the split, Bai Qian and her mother lost Jiang Chen’s support, and their lives fell into chaos overnight. When they tried to enroll Niuniu in an elite private school, they learned the annual tuition alone reached one million yuan, finally realizing all the silent sacrifices Jiang Chen had made over the years.
