On her feet, she was truly wearing the glass slippers from the fairy tales.
Later, Shen Weiyi beca the perfect goddess in everyone’s eyes, endlessly glamorous, always the center of attention under the spotlight, but no one knew that her dreams had long since shattered.
She could no longer rember when it started, but those two n wandered farther and farther from her world, so far that even their figures were invisible.
It seed that even if she spent her whole life, she wouldn’t be able to grasp them.

After the sound of footsteps faded, Wanxia slowly walked into the office, and Secretary Liu sensibly closed the door for her superior.
Wanxia had her arms behind her back, her fair fingers hooking onto the strap of her bag, as she twirled at the office door.
Even though it was getting colder, she still wore little—a light blue blouse, a vertically striped mid-length skirt, revealing her slender ankle; the frilled hem of the skirt swayed with her movents, creating a lively beauty.
She looked at the man sitting in the black soft chair, her almond eyes shallow and enchanting, her voice airy, "Is Mr. Gu very busy?"
Upon hearing her voice with Shen Weiyi, the sharpness in Gu Shaozhi’s eyes, caused by the complicated business affairs, had already faded away.
In its place was a soothing gentleness that could bewitch the heart.
He tossed aside the pen in his hand, stood up, and walked to the woman, "Just finished being busy."
He wrapped his arms around the delicate waist of the little woman, drawing her into his embrace, a doting smile on his brow, "Didn’t you say lately you’ve been very sleepy, just wanting to sleep when idle, why did you co over?"
The scent of tobacco entered her nostrils, mixed with a faint cool mint, his unique fragrance.
Wanxia didn’t find it botherso.
Her eyes curved, clear and bright, "I ca nearby to see Xiao Chu, didn’t the driver tell you?" She thought he left the driver at ho to keep track of her whereabouts at all tis.
Seems it was just her overthinking.
She raised her hand to touch the man’s Adam’s apple, her eyes flowing with laughter, "So many people just left, did I co at a bad ti?"
Whether this intimate gesture was deliberate or not, Gu Shaozhi didn’t need to know clearly.
He held the woman’s soft hand, brought it to his lips and kissed it lightly, his voice low and warm, "Six o’clock, just in ti for off work; Miss Ji has good timing."
Even though he hadn’t touched her for a while, these one-sided kisses were not few.
Wanxia blinked, her voice lively like wind chis, "Then shall we go eat, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Shaozhi hadn’t seen this innocent side of Wanxia for a long ti, like a feather softly tickling his heart, making it feel softer.
He couldn’t help but want to kiss her.
Thinking this, he did just that.
Gu Shaozhi pushed the woman forward two steps until she was pinned against the office door.
His tall, robust body was too close, giving an invisible oppressive force, trapping Wanxia in the constrained space; as she was still dazed, her mind blank, he tilted her chin and leaned down to kiss her cherry-red lips.
Their breaths rged.
Her sweetness and the taste of his tobacco mingled into one.
The kiss wasn’t deep, but it was exceedingly tender.
The man’s overwhelming presence pressed down with a light scent of tobacco, occupying Wanxia’s breath; she was stunned for a while, forgetting to push him away.
The man’s kiss was like an electric current, numbing her nerve endings inch by inch; perhaps because she was too unfamiliar with this pure kiss, her heart beat faster.
Wanxia gazed blankly at the man with closed dark eyes intently kissing her, a gradually uncontrollable stirring erged from her heart, sweeping through every part of her body.
Unfamiliar yet... familiar.
She forgot to breathe, her cheeks turning red from holding her breath; the man didn’t make any forceful moves, just lightly pinched her chin, allowing her to easily escape his kiss by turning her head.
She raised her misty eyes, looking at him with a hint of annoyance and amusent, "Had enough?"
Gu Shaozhi opened his dark eyes, and in his view was such a beautiful scene: the little woman, due to shortness of breath, had a very alluring blush on her cheeks, her cherry lips slightly swollen and glistening, her almond eyes slightly unfocused, softly glaring at him.
Vivid and enchanting.
His Adam’s apple rolled unnaturally, his lower abdon tightened suddenly.
Gu Shaozhi knew that if this continued, the one to suffer would certainly be him, so he wisely stepped back, creating a distance between them.
