Synopsis

A marriage contract lasting three years, a marriage in name only, as if they were strangers. To provide for her child, she went out to work in a large corporation, only to find her boss was actually her contract husband... "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude. I chose the company because the salary was high enough." The man flipped through the resume in his hand and asked casually, “Why did you take a year off from university when you were 19?” “I, when I was a freshman... something happened in my family.” “Is that so? Then why do you have a scar on your lower abdomen?” “I had appendectomy...” His gaze was inscrutable. ...... After a three-year marriage, she signed the divorce agreement with a heavy heart. She turned and walked away with dignity and poise, like a splash of light ink. But why did this man keep pursuing her?

Chapter 1Chapter 1 Long Time No See Mrs. Gu (1)_1

Gu Group

"Congratulations, Miss Jian, you've passed the interview, and now begins your three-month probation period." Faced with the manager's warm greeting, Jian Ran's heart leapt with joy, but her lips only curled slightly.

"Thank you." Jian Ran's long hair was tied up, her simple black blazer tailored neatly, and her delicate face without makeup was somehow striking.

As the economic helmsman of Yuncheng, getting a job at Gu Group was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. But the high salary was the main reason she had chosen the Gu Group.

Money was something she lacked!

So she felt fortunate to have been hired by Gu Group and had smoothly started working there.

However, today in the office, especially among the female staff, there was great excitement because they'd heard that the CEO of Gu Group was coming. Every female employee was dressed to the nines, except Jian Ran who was calmly and composurely organizing her desk, while overhearing the endless chatter of the women beside her.

"They say the CEO of Gu Group is as elusive as a dragon, hard to catch a glimpse of. I wonder if we'll get to see him after joining the company."

"Exactly, it's like not recognizing the real face of the mountain, just because one is right in the midst of it."

"I heard he's even more handsome than A-list celebrities and is still a golden bachelor."

"The point is, he has a clean image, no scandals... These days, where can you find such a top-notch man? If he were mine, that would be great."

Among the murmuring, someone suddenly announced, "President Gu has arrived!"

At Gu Group, any new employee would be inspected by the senior executives.

"Wow, President Gu... oh my, such luck to see the male god in person, he's so handsome."

Amidst the whispers of the very women who had been gossiping just moments before, Jian Ran casually brushed away a stray lock of hair, unfazed in her heart, and looked up.

The man approaching was in a crisp khaki suit which accentuated his impeccable figure, his every move exuded an indescribable nobility. With an elegant stride, the corners of his lips held a faint, aloof curve, he was heading towards her.

The other employees only dared to stand behind him, nodding and bowing, eyes fixated on the man as if he were the most important figure there.

The familiar ink-black eyes, with their piercing gaze, were just as she remembered seeing him in the past.

Jian Ran could never have dreamed that the illustrious CEO of Gu Group, the helmsman of Yuncheng...

Gu Mochen!

...would actually be her husband!

Yes, she had signed an agreement with him, a marriage of three years, in name only, as strangers to each other.

Now two years of the marriage term had passed, with one remaining...

After graduating from university, as they had agreed to a marriage in name only, strangers to one another, she had somehow ended up working at his company, with him as her immediate superior.

As Jian Ran was reeling from the shock, the tall figure of the man was already standing in front of her.

Gu Mochen glanced indifferently at the name tag in front of Jian Ran, her name clearly visible, and extended his long, pale hand.

"Miss Jian, welcome to Gu Group."

Jian Ran's mind went blank: "..."

The man's words were filled with detachment, and Jian Ran tried hard to control her facial expressions, but still couldn't calm the trembling in her heart.

The man before her was high above, looking down on the world as if above all its hustle and bustle.

Jian Ran could still vaguely recall the first time she saw this man.

"Jian Ran, 20 years old, second-year student in Design at Yuncheng University, mother's whereabouts unknown, father in prison awaiting a second trial, in desperate need of funds. Miss Jian, you need money, and I need a wife who will keep to her own affairs."

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?
