Seven Summer Leaves

 Su Wan married the man she had loved for ten years with a heart full of joy.
 On their wedding night, however, he said to her, "Su Wan, you've been given the status of Mrs. Xu. All you need to do is fulfill your duties. The only things you can get from me are power and money, nothing else."
 Su Wan, holding a sincere heart as if it were red-hot coal, wanted to tell him that she had secretly loved him for many years. But before she could give away her true feelings, they were thrown to the ground and shattered.
 Everyone thought that Su Wan must be very happy to marry A city's most noble man, Gu Nanzhou. Even Su Wan herself thought so.
 But that was just what she thought.
 Until one day, Su Wan realized that no matter what she did, she could not warm Gu Nanzhou's indifferent heart, and she no longer hoped to gain his love.
 She chose to leave, to set each other free, leaving only a divorce agreement behind.
 Everyone knew that Gu Nanzhou had no feelings for Su Wan and that marrying her was merely a reluctant decision. On the day of their divorce, his friends celebrated for him.
 In the lively atmosphere of the private room, the cold yet noble man didn't utter a word. With his legs crossed and fingertips glowing with a scarlet light, his expression was obscured by the swirling smoke, his mood impenetrable to others.
 And nobody knew that after Su Wan left, there were countless sleepless nights when Gu Nanzhou sat in her room, his fingers holding the divorce agreement turning white with tension.
 Later, at a banquet, Gu Nanzhou cornered Su Wan in a dimly lit corner.
 The man's eyes were slightly red, his voice low and hoarse, his usually indifferent and serene face now showing an unprecedented disarray, almost begging the person in his arms. "Wanwan, please don't divorce me, okay?"

Mr. CEO, You're Out!

They arrived at the riverbank near Junjing Garden, where Su Wan gazed at the river's surface that was not far away, rippling gently. The weather was gradually warming, and even the wind was tender.


He Miaomiao took out a bottle of beer from her bag, opened it, and handed it to Su Wan, "Here."


Su Wan took it and clinked bottles with He Miaomiao in a practiced manner.


She took a sip, comfortably squinting her eyes, and remarked with a sigh, "It's been a long time since I've been this casual. Back at the Gu Family, I never dared to run out late at night to sit outside and drink. If someone saw Mrs. Gu behaving so freely and started spreading all kinds of sensational news, it would definitely have caused trouble for Gu Nanzhou."


He Miaomiao listened with a tinge of sorrow and asked, "Wanwan, have you really made up your mind to divorce Gu Nanzhou?"


Su Wan looked up at the night sky adorned with stars; it was rare to see such a beautiful nightscape.
