    Family, don't worry about running out of books to read! Today I'm recommending a super captivating CEO romance novel. After reading it, all I can say is that the CEO's relentless pursuit of his wife is so addictive; I can't stop imagining him regretting it so much. The female lead [her name] was originally an ordinary girl who accidentally entered into a contract marriage with CEO Gu. She initially thought it was a transaction, but gradually fell in love with him. However, CEO Gu initially only saw it as a business deal, ignoring her efforts and being misled by her ex-girlfriend, leading to repeated misunderstandings. Until she discovered she was pregnant, and after being framed by her ex-girlfriend, she was severely humiliated by CEO Gu, and heartbroken, she chose to run away with the baby. Years later, she returns with her adorable child, a successful businesswoman. Meanwhile, CEO Gu accidentally discovers the child's existence and, seeing a baby who looks exactly like him as a child, realizes the enormity of his past mistakes. He launches a relentless pursuit, using luxury cars, private jets, and all sorts of romantic gestures, but the female lead remains unmoved. The baby also occasionally helps her mother "make things difficult" for CEO Gu, creating memorable scenes of adorable children outsmarting the domineering CEO. Later, CEO Gu completely distances himself from his first love for the female lead, and even uses all his resources to help her overcome difficulties when her career is in crisis. This novel is full of misunderstandings, sweet moments, and adorable children helping out. The plot is full of twists and turns, and the CEO's humble pursuit of his wife is so touching that you can't put it down once you start reading!

Shen Ye lowered his eyes, his handsome face expressionless, mentioning the divorce as if it were just a simple, everyday conversation over a meal. "It's not like I wanted a divorce." His voice was cold and dismissive. "She insisted on it, threatening to separate and then file for divorce if I didn't. What could I do?" "You brat, what did you do to offend Wanrong?" Old Master Shen was even angrier. "Wanrong is gentle and kind. How could she be so determined to get a divorce for no reason?!" "What could I do?" Shen Ye frowned impatiently. "Grandpa, she's just making a scene. Isn't it like when she was in school, thinking she could get my attention by causing a scene? I'll just ignore her for a while. She'll come back when she's done making a scene." "You can't just get a divorce so easily!" Old Master Shen glared at him. "Find a time and coax her back right now! Your son doesn't know about this yet. If he finds out and cries to me, I'll teach you a lesson!"
