After My Divorce, I Built a Successful Career

Next novel: Please Let Me Be a Scumbag Again Before I Die, Thanks. Please add it to your collection! This novel: Gu Chenyu always thought his wife was a noble, aloof little wildcat. The little wildcat had been hurt before, so he reined in his arrogance and sharp claws, turning himself into a docile, obedient house cat. Only the little paws that occasionally came out reminded Gu Chenyu that his cat was still wild inside, and that one careless move could get him scratched. Gu Chenyu lost his memory, forgot the little wildcat at home, and brought back a little white dog. The little wildcat's temper flared. He scratched Gu Chenyu, then ran away, never to return home. When Gu Chenyu woke up, he regretted it bitterly. After learning that the little wildcat had gone to the border, he hurried after him. His poor kitty, the little thing who hid away to lick his wounds whenever he was hurt, the little guy who kept his grievances bottled up, must have been furious. He was surely curled up somewhere, secretly crying. Gu Chenyu began patiently coaxing the little wildcat. The little wildcat liked to be clean, so he bathed him every day. The little wildcat liked certain foods, so he made delicious meals for him every day. The little wildcat wanted silver, so he went to the prefect's office and shook down a corrupt official for a hefty sum. Eventually, the little wildcat was finally coaxed into forgiving him. Not only did he put away his sharp claws, he even started meowing at Gu Chenyu of his own accord. When the kitty was unhappy with him, he would gently scratch him with his soft pink paw pads. When the kitty missed him, he would turn over and show his soft belly, letting Gu Chenyu rub it. Only then did Gu Chenyu realize that his little wildcat had become a house cat again. This time, though, the house cat clung to him of his own accord and never wanted to leave. Shen Qiushi and Gu Chenyu had been married for three years. One day, Gu Chenyu lost his memory and brought home a woman, claiming she was the one he loved and that Shen Qiushi was merely her stand-in. Now that the original had returned, he was determined to marry her. If Shen Qiushi refused, he would drag him to jump into the river. Shen Qiushi: Thanks. Go ahead and jump, then. Don't let me keep you. Later, Shen Qiushi discovered that the woman was of the lowest registered status. His husband, who'd clearly been hit on the head, actually expected him to be on equal terms with someone of the lowest status. What a ridiculous fantasy. His amnesiac husband threatened to divorce him if he didn't agree. Shen Qiushi: Thanks for the invitation. I feel very threatened. So let's sign this divorce agreement. I've already added my seal. Shen Qiushi left behind a divorce agreement bearing his signature and seal and headed straight beyond the border. He was never meant to be confined within these four walls. The battlefield was where he belonged. Within just a few months of reaching the border, Shen Qiushi won two battles in a row, securing a vital city and earning the emperor's delight. Later, with him leading the army, they won several more battles against the enemy and completely reclaimed the borderlands. The emperor personally bestowed on him the title of Great General Who Guards the Nation and granted him a residence to settle in. After that, Shen Qiushi led his forces north, reclaimed the territory lost by the previous dynasty, saved the people of the borderlands, and restored Liang's borders to their former extent. The emperor wept with joy, clasped his hands, and choked out, “With Qiushi in our nation, I can finally rest easy.” Meanwhile, his husband's head had finally healed. Now he clutched a handkerchief and sobbed, “My wife, don't leave me.” Gu Chenyu had spent over a decade longing to marry the one he loved. He studied for the imperial examinations, petitioned the emperor for a marriage decree, and finally brought his beloved home in triumph. But one day, he lost his memory and drove away the very person he'd spent so long trying to win. Clutching a divorce agreement, Gu Chenyu wept his heart out, overwhelmed with regret. His wife, his wife! The wife he'd poured so much effort into marrying! His tall, adorable wife, who rarely smiled and seemed aloof, but felt so soft and warm in his arms! How could he be gone? Waaah! Gu Chenyu began the long road to winning back his wife. Carrying more than a decade of longing, he went to the border to beg for forgiveness. His first order of business was to explain the misunderstanding and make peace. Shen Qiushi: Thanks. You explained it, but it feels like you didn't. I still seem to be someone else's stand-in. Get lost, scumbag. Gu Chenyu was plunged into the agony of pursuing his wife. Just what had gone wrong? Why was his cool-tempered, soft-in-his-arms, sweet-smelling, sweet-to-kiss wife ignoring him?
