"...Fine, let's get divorced! You can't have the child. When she's older, I'm sending her to a really expensive kindergarten! You'll have to pay child support, every month!! And I'm not leaving you any of my liquid assets!!! At most, I'll let you live in the house by the school..."
"Forget it! I'll leave you a bank card..."
Li Wanfeng said nothing, only smiling and shaking her head.
When she lowered her eyes, her lashes fluttered softly like raven feathers. She was still so beautiful it made the heart ache.
"...How about we don't get divorced?" President Le fell silent for a moment, then said, "I can't live without you. No, Tuantuan is still so young. She can't live without you..."
"No need."
Li Wanfeng stood up, her naturally wavy long hair falling over her shoulders with the movement.
She bent down and signed the divorce papers without hesitation:
"I'll pay child support on time, as stipulated in the agreement. We're really not right for each other. I'm too busy. I'm sorry."
The chairman, who had a thousand matters to attend to, could only watch helplessly as his wife became his ex-wife.
Li Wanfeng gently said, "Goodbye," then turned and left.

The news that Senior Sister Wanfeng had divorced the rich second-generation heir from the business school spread across Y University in no time.
Everyone knew that Senior Sister Li Wanfeng came from a remote area, was a poor student with no family to rely on, and had grown up in an orphanage. She'd only been able to live more comfortably thanks to her wealthy, well-connected CEO husband.
So if she got no money in the divorce...
Her usual healthy breakfasts, prepared at home by a five-star chef, were now replaced by slow-simmered, stomach-friendly organic seafood and vegetable porridge from a five-star hotel, delivered by a junior student.
The designer brands she used to wear, bought with her ex-wife's card, were now replaced by one-of-a-kind custom outfits worth millions, personally designed to her measurements by a childhood friend who had returned from abroad.
She used to have a private luxury car waiting whenever she left the lab. Now, luxury cars of every kind showed up one after another, and some people even fought over who got to pick her up...
Even the entertainment in the school's gossip group changed from "Bet on whether Senior Sister Wanfeng's partner will pick her up early today" to "Bet on who'll get to take Senior Sister Wanfeng home today"...
-
Li Wanfeng was like a proud cat. Once she was on her own, she was even more content and carefree.
Her ex-wife quietly fell apart in a corner.
Le Ming: (regretful beyond words, sobbing uncontrollably) Honey, let's get remarried! Could you love me one more time? You can love my money too, sob sob sob!
The eager admirers who'd been lying in wait for so long: She's finally divorced! Thank you for the gift!!

1. This story is told from the uke's perspective. The uke is a biology doctoral student: gentle on the outside, cold at heart, devoted to academics, and adored by everyone. The seme is a wealthy second-generation heir: rational and serious, but unreasonable, petulant, clingy, and devoted to his wife.
2. Li Wanfeng is everyone's beloved, unattainable ideal. Le Ming is the male lead, while there are many supporting male admirers. Li Wanfeng had persistent admirers even during her marriage, and there are even more after the divorce.
3. Same-sex marriage is legal in this setting. Dual female reproduction and artificial womb technology exist. Li Wanfeng and Le Ming have a baby girl, though she's too young to play much of a role.
4. This is a freewheeling story. Just have fun. The idea came to me in April 2024.
5. All terminology is female-centered, with an entirely female cast, so read without worry. A sweet, lighthearted short story. At most, there are a few heartbreaking moments in flashbacks. They divorce and then remarry. The reasons are explained in the story and are pretty ridiculous. In short, there's no angst, no scummy behavior, and nothing that will strain your brain. The story mainly focuses on the couple's back-and-forth romance and on the next in a long line of admirers pursuing the universally adored Senior Sister.
