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!

It wasn't long before someone knocked on the door, and a staff member walked in, greeting Su Wan, "Miss Su, the organizers are here. Please follow me."


Su Wan acknowledged and stood up to follow the person.


She was wearing an off-the-shoulder light yellow evening gown today, with a long hem trailing with tiny, shimmering diamonds that glittered brilliantly under the colorful neon lights. Beautiful as it was, it made walking rather inconvenient.


Carrying her skirt was somewhat strenuous for Su Wan. She didn't walk fast, and although the young girl wanted to express her thoughts discreetly, the staff member seemed to be in a hurry, not even looking back, just leading the way ahead.


Su Wan figured there must be something important happening to make them so rushed. She swallowed the words she was about to speak and hurried to catch up.
