The Wife He Waited For — 60 Episodes Free

New Year's Eve, the market is closing. Shen Zhiyi is carrying two bags of groceries and a phone that will not stop ringing. On the other end her mother is laughing about the son-in-law who brought the whole family to the hot spring. She asks which son-in-law. There is a pause long enough to hear the firecrackers. Then a name she does not know. She looks down at the receipt in her hand — it is made out to that name, for a hundred thousand yuan of New Year goods, paid on her husband's card. Shen Zhiyi is the youngest R and D director in the group. Lu Huaizhou is the man who signs the checks and the man she married seven years ago in a registry office with two witnesses and no photographs. By day they are strangers in the same elevator; by night they share a kitchen. Every Spring Festival she goes to her father's house alone, because his name cannot appear on the guest list. This year she goes to buy the New Year groceries by herself and finds out from a shopkeeper that the family has another son-in-law — a name she has never heard, seated at the head of the table. Sixty episodes about a marriage kept in a drawer, and the year it was taken out.
