After Marrying The Wrong Person, I Can’t Leave

After discovering his boyfriend’s infidelity with his roommate, Song Linchu decided to end the relationship. His ex, however, continued to flaunt expensive gifts, implying a future marriage into wealth. Song Linchu knew his ex's family wasn't rich, but that his uncle had chosen him as an heir due to a terminal illness and a physical defect. Provoked by the roommate’s taunts, Song Linchu obtained the uncle’s contact and vowed to secure the inheritance himself. Song Linchu successfully married the uncle, Tan Yue, and used their relationship to remove his ex-boyfriend’s inheritance claim and limit his spending. He reveled in his ex-boyfriend’s inability to continue gifting lavishly. However, as Tan Yue, who was expected to die soon, became unusually energetic and seemingly unaffected by his supposed defect, Song Linchu’s plans unraveled. When his ex-boyfriend appeared, pleading for help as Tan Yue was allegedly bankrupting his uncle, Song Linchu realized his mistake. He discovered Tan Yue was the true head of the wealthy Tan family, and the wealth his ex-boyfriend had displayed actually belonged to the uncle.
