Cheers, My Love, I Serve It COLD!

Shijia is a large company, and the man who ran it stepped out of the chairman's seat twenty-three years ago without telling anyone at home. Lu Yuanzhou spent those years supervising construction sites on a supervisor's pay, married to Shen Qinghe, who took him for a man of no standing. He bought a ring for their wedding anniversary. Around the same time Shen Qinghe's first love, Gu Yanzhou, came back with money and a position and began courting her openly. Lu Yuanzhou's own sons took Gu's side, his mother-in-law pushed him further out, and the rest of the family spoke about him as they pleased. At a ball, Shen Qinghe and Gu Yanzhou drank a wedding toast with linked arms in front of the room. That night Lu Yuanzhou said who he was, took the chairmanship of Shijia back, and had Gu Yanzhou, whose dealings would not stand up to a look, put in prison. Shen Qinghe learned it at the same time as everyone else there.
