Are You Divorcing Me Today?

#Slept with Her Contract Husband the Night Before Their Divorce#

*Office worker x powerful man / older man

*Gentle rebel x initially aloof, secretly jealous

Wen Yao married Xie Qingyu, the second son of the Xie family.

After the wedding, she continued working as a junior designer, while Xie Qingyu acquired her company and became her direct superior.

Before the wedding, they signed a contract agreeing to divorce after two years. In compensation, Wen Yao would receive a hefty payout.

The Xie family was a prominent power in Beicheng, and Xie Qingyu himself was a discreet, distinguished young master. Given the gap in their status and position, Wen Yao kept her distance from him at work.

Her husband never came home, she didn’t have to fulfill her marital duties, and she’d get paid when the contract ended.

For the twenty-million-yuan payout, Wen Yao diligently played her part for a year and a half. She was ready to divorce in six months, take the money, and walk away in delight.

But one night, she drank too much and let herself go. When she woke up, someone was lying beside her.

What was she supposed to do when, on the very day their contract ended, she and her husband had become a real married couple???

The man in bed pressed his fingers to his brow and opened his eyes. His voice was hoarse. “You were drunk and sleeping in the master bedroom last night. When you kissed me, you didn’t look like that.”

Wen Yao put on a calm front and tugged at the blanket he was lying on, changing the subject. “Are we still going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get divorced today?”

Rumors have been circulating at Shangling Jewelry that President Xie got married, but nobody knows who his wife is. Some say she’s the daughter of a business partner; others say she’s the actress the brand signed this year.

After a department dinner, Wen Yao and her colleagues waited for the elevator on the first floor.

The department manager, who had recently been making things difficult for Wen Yao, pushed in from behind and scolded her for not taking good enough care of the brand ambassador that day. “She might be the boss’s wife, for all we know...”

The CEO’s private elevator opened diagonally ahead of them, and Xie Qingyu looked out.

The manager was just about to speak when the man’s gaze passed over him and landed on the person behind him. “Mrs. Xie?”

The elevator lobby fell silent.

A few seconds later, Wen Yao drew a quiet breath, walked around the manager toward the elevator, and said softly, “Got it.”

Wen Yao: My money? [confused]

Xie Qingyu: We’re not getting divorced. But I’ll still give you the money.

[That day, he chased the sunset with me for thirty kilometers.]
