Zhao Lingwei, a workplace star, never dreamed she'd be so bold. On the new CEO Su Jingchen's very first day, she threatens to give him a “bad review.”
Thinking she'd have to find a new job, Zhao Lingwei secretly checks job listings, only to get caught by the domineering CEO again. Now she's sure to be fired.
But the company still can't do without her, so the CEO gives her a chance to make things right: she has to land a major contract.
Zhao Lingwei works overtime all night and successfully closes a deal, impressing Su Jingchen. He, in turn, falls deeply in love with his subordinate.
Su Jingchen has never dated anyone. His approach is hopelessly old-fashioned: either he gives her flowers or he tries to pin her against a wall like the domineering CEOs in romance novels.
But with no experience, he makes it look more like an assault.
Zhao Lingwei is speechless. Is the CEO tired of celebrities and influencers and looking for a change of pace with her?
She thought her boss was going to exploit her, but then he suddenly starts getting romantic: sending flowers, taking her out to dinner, and reminding her to drink plenty of hot water during her period.
Come on, you're a domineering CEO! Fine, you can't pin a girl against the wall, but why are you using such painfully awkward, clueless-guy moves to woo her?
At the very least, go read a CEO romance on Tomato Novel and learn how it's done. Get her drunk, carry her back to the hotel, and play poker six or seven times in one night...
Su Jingchen really does catch on eventually. He asks Zhao Lingwei to a bar, but he's the one who gets drunk, because Zhao Lingwei's grandfather's family makes liquor, and she grew up drinking sorghum spirits.
What should have been a classic story about a CEO falling for a career woman turns into two clueless rookies fumbling their way through love. They even need to hold an academic conference to decide whether a kiss should involve tongues.
Zhao Lingwei is at a loss. She was only trying to do her job, so how did she end up giving herself to her boss and becoming the boss's wife?
It feels okay. Although the president is a bit love-minded, he is not annoying at all. Why are so few people watching? 🍉
I read it all night, and there are good parts, but there are also immature parts. These are all determined by the reader's vision, but ultimately, this is a romance novel. In terms of romance alone, it's pretty good. But in reality, there are some shortcomings. Of course, a thousand readers equals a thousand Hamlets, so just enjoy reading it. Anyway, I was quite happy. By the way, the speed in the second half was really fast.
Halfway through, I thought I hadn't written a review, but when I came out I found that there was only one review, which was too little.
It's so beautiful, the author's writing is very good
It's okay, keep reading, it's very close to reality. There are so many drugged, kidnapped, car accidents and abortions. They all seem to have persecution delusions [laughter]
So sweet. Why don't I have such love?
Very nice! Very nice!
Very nice, highly recommended
It's so beautiful, the sweet love story can also affect the readers' emotions! I hope it will continue to be sweet [sending heart] mua~ 😜
It's good to watch, there's no scene where two women compete with one man. Both male and female protagonists are very enterprising. ❤️
