Dream Reading

The entire city of Beijing envied Lu Ze and me for being a couple blessed by the gods.
We grew up as childhood sweethearts, and later when my work required me to move abroad, I proposed to break up with Lu Ze to avoid holding back his youth. But he took out a ring on the spot and proposed to me, promising to get married as soon as possible.
However, upon returning to the country, he didn't mention a word about it and even brought a female assistant to my welcome party.
The next day, I asked a lawyer to help me terminate the engagement.
Upon receiving the engagement termination agreement, he went mad and searched the world for me.



After Returning Home, My Fiancé Fell for His Secretary

I lowered my eyes and sent a message to my parents: "I want to break off the engagement with Lu Ze."


My parents called me back immediately: "Sweetheart, you're back? When did you come back? You should have let us know!"


Actually, I originally planned to visit with Lu Ze and give the elderly couple a surprise, but unfortunately, this surprise turned into a shock.


I said, "It's nothing, just suddenly feeling tired."


My parents' tone immediately turned to concern: "We support you in every other matter, but breaking off an engagement isn't something that can be done so easily; the entangled interests between our family and the Lu Family are too many, it involves major business issues."


"Tell us first, what on earth happened? Didn't you and that boy from the Lu Family have the best relationship? Did he do something to upset you?"


But I didn't want to explain anymore, I hastily brushed off the topic and hung up the phone. My parents are getting old, their biggest wish is to see me settle down, but unfortunately, I'm not living up to it, I can't even fulfill such a simple wish for them.


I hailed a cab, planning to return to the company first to have a look, and also to sort out the cooperation projects with the Lu Family over the years, it's best to sever them cleanly as early as possible.


In the past, when I was younger, I always dreamed of venturing outside, leaving the vast family business to my parents and pursuing my dreams on my own, but now looking back, I realize that my parents have long grown old, and the one I love most no longer loves me, in the end, there's nothing left.


Luckily, it's not too late to start learning to manage the company affairs now.


As soon as I entered the boardroom office, the company's veteran came running to me: "Miss, you came just in time, please think of a strategy, the online public opinion has exploded."


I opened my phone to check the trending topics, and it turned out that Lu Ze's little secretary's online account had been uncovered, the entire account was filled with records of her interactions with Lu Ze, the words wrapped in love looked so blissful they could melt.


"Today President Lu brought me breakfast, he said because my digestive system isn't well, I must take care of my health, and from now on, I have to eat a warm breakfast every day to get better."


"Today his fiancée returned from abroad, yet President Lu spent the night at the hospital taking care of me. I asked him, what about your fiancée, he said it's just a business marriage, how could she compare to you."


The accompanying photo was a secretly taken picture of two hands tightly interlocked beside the white hospital bed, I immediately recognized that the man's hand was Lu Ze's.


Once, he used these hands to offer me an engagement ring, but now, these hands were holding tightly onto another woman, twenty-five years of affection, glossed over by his casual mention of a business marriage.


It turned out that before, he just hadn't met true love. Once he did, I, his fiancée, became an unbearable past.


I looked at the ring that hadn't been taken off yet, gently took it off and threw it into the trash can.
