Gu Pan was obsessed with novels. She stayed up all night finishing a new book by a popular author, only to get so emo she couldn't take it.
What kind of scumbag domineering CEO pretends to be a devoted lover? The novel would be better off without a male lead like that!
Gu Pan fired off an angry post that very night, then accidentally transmigrated into a book. Not only had she become the discarded wife, she'd also ended up in bed with the male lead!
Before she could even collect her thoughts, her mother-in-law drugged her, leaving her pregnant with the male lead's child!
Three months later, her mother-in-law pointed at the pregnancy test and called her a shameless slut, while her husband held another woman close and accused Gu Pan of being a loose woman.
When Gu Pan saw the woman's familiar face, she finally understood: she was nothing but a substitute.
Gu Pan: Wait, that's not how the novel went! Wasn't her husband's childhood sweetheart supposed to have married overseas, only to be abused by her husband and left disabled? She's back? Then I'm out of here!
Just then, the male lead appeared and paid a fortune to marry her.
On their wedding night, the man looked down at her. "Have the baby. Then get out."
Gu Pan clutched the blanket and said nothing.
She knew she was nothing more than his shield. Once their one-year agreement ended, she signed the divorce papers.
But the man was nowhere to be found, so the divorce couldn't be finalized.
She flew overseas that very night, and he went mad, searching the entire world for her.
Five years later, Gu Pan returned with her genius son...
Five-year-old Gu Xingchen got lost in the airport's VIP passageway. When he came back, he was clutching a man's trouser leg.
"Mommy, this uncle looks like the guy on your phone's lock screen!"
Gu Pan looked up. Bo Siyan stood five meters away, his eyes red, the wedding ring on his left ring finger gleaming.
With red-rimmed eyes, he put a black card in her hand.
"You can have my heart, my life, my company. Just please don't leave."
Gu Xingchen sneered. "Uncle, my mommy has so many suitors they line up from the Forbidden City all the way to Jiangcheng. You'll have to draw a number."
When Gu Pan learned that the divorce years ago had been a misunderstanding, she took off her sunglasses and looked at the man who had once been so high above everyone else.
"Oh, you're begging me?"
He dropped to one knee outside the civil affairs bureau and slapped an agreement for assets worth tens of billions onto the table.
Behind him, reporters from the Jiangcheng financial channel livestreamed it to the whole internet.
"Honey, I was wrong. Please marry me again."
Gu Pan bent close to his ear and whispered so softly only the two of them could hear:
"Bo Siyan, your son is five and has already won two international math competition gold medals. Do you think I need your tens of billions?"
She straightened up and pushed the marriage certificate in front of him.
"Still, you look pretty good on your knees. Sign it, Mr. Bo."
From then on, Jiangcheng had a CEO who went home on time every day, and the international school had an elementary schooler rumored to be the heir to the throne.
