Leaving Your World

share time: 2026-01-25 12:33:58

Lin Wan, a fledgling investment banker, had been with her boyfriend Lu Jingshen since college—until the night she stayed up late to help him secure a crucial project, only to catch him intimate with his wealthy fiancée. Lu’s cruel remark when breaking up—“You’re not even qualified to shine my shoes”—cut her deep. She bit her lip and joined Gu Huai, a reclusive tycoon in the investment world. Starting as a junior researcher, Lin used her sharp intuition to help Gu win several hundred-million-yuan projects, rising in three years to become the “game-changing” female legend of the investment circle. Gu, who always brought her hot cocoa during overtime and silently backed her up when she was harassed, finally took out a pen engraved with “Lin Wan’s Kingdom” on the night she won the Annual Best Investor Award: “I’ve saved ten years of affection, and now I finally deserve your brilliance.” Just then, Lu arrived with flowers to beg for reconciliation—only to see Gu wrap an arm around Lin and walk toward the top-floor office. That’s the highest level of Lu’s company, and Gu is the firm’s largest behind-the-scenes shareholder. The twist? Gu had noticed Lin’s talent when she was an intern; he hid his identity, waiting for her to grow into someone who could stand beside him as an equal.
