The President's Tender Trap

On the eve of her wedding, Su Wan was both excited and nervous. She busied herself with final preparations at home, her mind replaying the scene of tomorrow's ceremony: the blessings of her family and friends, Lu Ming's gentle gaze, and the vows they would take. Despite this, a dark cloud of uneasiness hung over her heart.

"Tomorrow is Lu Ming and I's wedding. I should be happy," Su Wan muttered to herself, but she couldn't shake off her worries and doubts about Li Yan. Just as she was trying to calm down, she decided to go for a walk to relax her tense nerves.

On the street, the setting sun cast a warm golden light, and the flowers on the roadside swayed in the breeze, as if blessing the upcoming wedding. Su Wan strolled down the street, her heart gradually calming down. However, when she walked to a corner, the scene before her made her heart sink suddenly.

"Li Yan?" Su Wan couldn't believe her eyes. The familiar figure was sitting on the terrace of the cafe, head bowed, cup of coffee in hand. Her face was slightly sad, as if she was lost in her own thoughts.

"How could it be her?" Su Wan's heart was instantly filled with mixed emotions, both surprised and uneasy. She wanted to turn away, but she felt an irresistible urge to step forward.

"Li Yan, long time no see." Su Wan mustered up the courage and spoke with a slightly trembling voice.

Hearing the voice, Li Yan raised her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she showed a polite smile. "Su Wan, you're here."

At this moment, Su Wan felt a surge of nervousness in her heart. Li Yan's appearance made her emotions like a turbulent ocean, difficult to calm down. She forced herself to remain calm and tried to make herself look less nervous.

"What are you doing here?" Su Wan asked, trying to make her voice sound relaxed.

"I have something to do today, and I just happened to pass by here and wanted to have a cup of coffee." Li Yan's voice was soft, and she seemed unaware of Su Wan's inner fluctuations.

"Oh, I'm getting married tomorrow and I'm a little nervous, so I came out for a walk." Su Wan tried to change the subject, but she was struggling with anxiety in her heart.

"Congratulations!" Li Yan smiled slightly, a hint of warmth flashed in her eyes, but then revealed a touch of complicated emotions. Su Wan could feel the fluctuations deep in her heart, as if she was suppressing something.

"Thank you." Su Wan tried to respond, but she felt a heavy feeling in her heart. She didn't know how to face Li Yan, and she didn't know if she still had feelings for Lu Ming.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became awkward, and Su Wan was filled with doubts. She wanted to ask Li Yan about Lu Ming, but she didn't know how to start.

"I heard that you and Lu Ming are together. You are really happy." Li Yan finally broke the silence, with a hint of sincerity in her eyes.

"Yes, that's right." Su Wan nodded, but she was a little hesitant. She could feel Li Yan's sincerity, but she didn't want to fall into a deeper emotional whirlpool at this time.

"Lu Ming is a very good person. He must be very good to you." Li Yan's voice was gentle, and she seemed to be trying hard to hide her inner emotions.

"He's very good to me." Su Wan's voice trembled slightly, but she was struggling in her heart. She wanted to believe Lu Ming, but Li Yan's appearance made her heart fall into confusion again.

"Actually, I've always admired you." Li Yan's eyes became firm. "I hope you can always be happy."

At that moment, Su Wan felt an inexplicable warmth, and Li Yan's blessing touched her heart. However, this was followed by deeper doubts. She wanted to ask Li Yan more, but she was afraid to touch the pain deep inside her.

"Are you... okay?" Su Wan finally plucked up the courage to ask the question that had been bothering her for a long time.

Li Yan's expression suddenly became complicated, and a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes. "I'm fine, but some things need time to digest." Her voice lowered, as if she was recalling the past.

"Between Lu Ming and you..." Su Wan hesitated in her heart, wanting to ask more, but didn't know where to start.

"The past is the past. I hope you can understand." Li Yan sighed slightly, a hint of relief in her eyes. "I don't want to dwell on the past anymore. I hope he can find his own happiness."

Su Wan's heart was slightly shaken, Li Yan's attitude made her feel a little surprised. She had thought that Li Yan would be jealous of their relationship, but she didn't expect her to be so frank.

"Thank you." Su Wan said gratefully, but she still couldn't let it go. She didn't know if Li Yan had really let go of the past, but she could feel the strength deep in her heart.

"Su Wan, I hope you can take good care of Lu Ming." Li Yan's voice was gentle but firm. "He is someone worth cherishing."

"I will." Su Wan nodded and secretly swore in her heart that no matter what, she would not let Lu Ming get hurt.

At this moment, Su Wan's phone suddenly rang. It was Lu Ming calling. Her heart tightened, and she quickly picked up the phone. "Lu Ming, what's going on?"

"Su Wan, I'm nearby and want to come and see you." There was a hint of tenderness in Lu Ming's voice.

"I'm on the street, waiting for you." Su Wan's voice trembled slightly, and she couldn't help feeling uneasy. She didn't know how to explain her chance encounter with Li Yan to Lu Ming.

"Okay, I'll be right there." There was a hint of concern in Lu Ming's voice.

After hanging up the phone, Su Wan felt nervous. Li Yan's appearance made her feel at a loss. She wanted to confess to Lu Ming, but she didn't know how to start.

"I have to go, Lu Ming will be here soon." Su Wan said to Li Yan, but she was secretly thinking about the next conversation in her heart.

"Okay, I wish you all the best at your wedding tomorrow." Li Yan smiled slightly, with a hint of blessing and relief in her eyes.

"Thank you, Li Yan," Su Wan said gratefully, but felt a little melancholy in her heart. She knew that Li Yan was a person worthy of respect, and she hoped to establish a friendly relationship with her in the future.

Su Wan turned and walked out of the cafe, but her heart was still churning with mixed emotions. She didn't know how to face the upcoming wedding, her heart filled with longing and fear for the future.

When Lu Ming appeared in front of her, Su Wan felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She tried to keep smiling, but the turmoil in her heart still could not be calmed.

"Are you waiting for me here?" Lu Ming asked with concern, tenderness in his eyes.

"Well, I just happened to be taking a walk nearby." Su Wan smiled slightly, but she was secretly thinking about Li Yan's appearance in her heart.

"Let's go have dinner. Tomorrow is a big day." Lu Ming said easily, trying to ease the atmosphere.

"Okay," Su Wan responded, but she still couldn't shake the uneasiness in her heart. She knew she had to be honest with Lu Ming, but she didn't want to ruin the atmosphere at this beautiful moment.

During dinner, Lu Ming excitedly discussed the details of the wedding, and the smile on his face warmed Su Wan's heart. However, doubts still lingered in her heart, preventing her from fully engaging.

"Su Wan, I will try my best to make tomorrow's wedding the happiest moment." Lu Ming's eyes were affectionate, as if he was making a promise to her.
