Graduation brought unemployment, the landlord was demanding rent, and my scumbag ex mocked me.
With nowhere left to turn, I called the mysterious number my mother had left behind.
A man’s voice came through the phone, cold as ice: “Bring your household registration booklet and come marry me.”
From then on, I became the contract wife of Shen Yucheng, heir to Jiangcheng’s most powerful family.
He gave me a black card and a respectable life, then brought me into the heart of his company.
Everyone laughed at me, the “parachuted-in” sparrow who didn’t belong, and waited for the ruthless CEO to kick me out.
Until the company’s annual gala.
The aloof, abstinent Mr. Shen, who never let anyone near him, bent down in front of everyone and carefully brushed crumbs off my skirt.
As everyone stared in disbelief, he put an arm around my waist and addressed my pretentious ex, who had come to show off.
“I hear you wanted my wife to work as a clerk at your company?”
Later, I earned the title of Best Newcomer of the Year through hard work.
At the awards ceremony, the host asked, “Miss Lin, what’s the secret to your success?”
Before I could answer, Shen Yucheng stood up from the front row and took the microphone.
“Her secret?”
He looked at me, the chill in his eyes melting away until only a galaxy remained.
“It’s me.”
[Two-Faced CEO VS Comeback Rookie]
By day, I was a new employee under him, constantly on edge.
By night, I was the nominal wife in his contract, with no interference in each other’s lives.
Until one day, he cornered me against the wall of his CEO’s office, his fingers stroking the necklace hidden beneath my collar.
“The contract says we won’t interfere in each other’s lives.”
“But it doesn’t say I can’t pursue my legal wife.”
Don't worry, there will be no friends in the future. No one in the world will know you!
