The Gale Toppled the Parasol Tree

【Urban + wealthy families + CEO + sweet romance + mutual firsts】 With her wedding approaching, Fang Wu handed her boss, Gu Tingshen, some wedding candy and invited him to the ceremony. Gu Tingshen gazed silently at the candy, but inside, a storm was already raging. Fang Wu had been his secretary for five years. Five years ago, Gu Tingshen lost his parents in a car accident and was forced to shoulder the burden of running the Wansheng Group. At the time, the Gu, Liao, and Bai families were the three powers in C City. With Gu Tingshen’s father gone, the Gu family’s company was on the brink of collapse. Gu Tingshen had no choice but to form a marriage alliance with the Liao family. Over the next five years, he turned the company around, making it more successful than ever and once again the strongest of the three. After five years of marriage, Gu Tingshen and his wife, Liao Tingting, were husband and wife in name only. Gu Tingshen thought his heart was made of stone, until he met her… The night he received the wedding candy, he got drunk. He pinned her against the sofa, his eyes bloodshot, and pleaded, “Please cancel the wedding, all right…?” (This story is entirely fictional. Please maintain a healthy outlook on life and values.)
