Divorced and Raising a Child, I Became a Designated Driver, and the CEO Won’t Leave Me Alone

Divorced and raising a child, struggling to make ends meet, single mother Lin Wan takes late-night shifts as a designated driver just to keep her family afloat.

One rainy night, she takes a fare and unexpectedly picks up Shen Zhiyan, a mysterious, aloof heir to a wealthy family. They are strangers who happen to cross paths, but he clings to her relentlessly, impossible to shake off.

She deliberately runs away, changes her name, and switches careers to start a baking business. From a little roadside shop, she steadily rises to build a successful chain.

The more she tries to avoid him, the harder he pursues her. After just one chance encounter, his devotion and obsession become so intense they seem almost abnormal, leaving everyone baffled.

Everyone mocks the designated driver, saying she is unworthy of the golden boy. Only Shen Zhiyan is willing to lower himself for her and protect her with single-minded devotion.

He confesses softly, “There’s nothing in this world I can’t accomplish, except keeping you by my side. For the rest of our lives, I’ll protect you and your child.”

Lin Wan has never understood why a chance encounter should earn her such boundless devotion. Shen Zhiyan’s love, however, is a descent into obsession and a homecoming no one else knows about.

He possesses all the world’s splendor, yet his heart was once utterly barren. Lin Wan’s arrival lit the one and only spark of human warmth in his desolate life.

Others see only how carefully he protects and provides for her. Only he understands that she saved him from a life of endless loneliness.

Lin Wan still has a way out. He has long since reached a point of no return.

She is the only tenderness of his life, and the one obsession he will carry to his grave.

As I write this, even I am deeply moved by Shen Zhiyan’s love.

Perhaps because I have never known such wholehearted devotion, with no way back, I poured all the love I long for and regret not having into this story.
