Divorced by Wife in Old Age, the System Finally Comes

share time: 2025-12-04 00:34:54

On his retirement day, 60-year-old Lin Jianguo received a divorce agreement from Su Xiaomei, his wife of 35 years. Through tears, she said, "I endured hard times with you, but you never saw me as a 'lover'—only a 'family member'." Stunned, Lin always thought "providing for the family" was his duty—until he found her old love letters. Suddenly, his phone showed a "Time Retrospection System": "Three chances to make up for the missed moments of affection." Going back to 1988 (when he nervously let go of her hand on their first date), 2005 (when he took a business call as she labored), and 2016 (when he worked overtime on her birthday while she made a cake), he realized she never wanted wealth—just "I care about you". With only 3 days left until the divorce registration, Lin is determined to "restart" those moments, even though the system warns: "Each retrospection erases one detail of her present self." He doesn’t mind—forgetting her gray hair is nothing compared to losing her. But when he finally says the "I love you" he’s hidden for decades, she smiles and shakes her head: "Is it too late?"
