The Rose's Bitter Bloom

Zhong Qing comes back after six years away, and she is a mother now. She has come for Lu Siyan, her former husband, for his mother, and for her own stepmother and half-sister. She had loved Lu Siyan for many years before the wedding. He married her to get back at her, and she knew it and went through with it anyway. In three years as his wife she never won him over, and his mother mistreated her the whole time. One day in the rain the mother beat her, made her sign divorce papers, and put her out of the house. While she was gone Lu Siyan came to understand that he loved her. Once she is back he starts pursuing his ex-wife with little restraint, and the household she once married into is soon in disorder.
