What a Pain! The Ex I Dumped Has Become My Creditor!

[Second Chance at Love] [Winning Him Back] [A man who overthinks, falls in love, and gets his heart broken x a woman with no stamina and a painfully slow emotional radar]

Everyone knows that Lu Xu, who controls the economic lifeline of City A, once had a first love who hurt him deeply.

That subject is absolutely taboo. Nobody dares bring it up in his presence.

Shang Lintang, the person at the center of that taboo, has no idea. After three years away, she's back in City A.

She has just one goal: win Lu Xu back!

She expects it to be difficult, since she was the one who left without a word all those years ago. But she has made up her mind.

No matter how many obstacles stand in her way, she'll never give up. No matter how treacherous the path, she'll see it through. Even if she ends up battered and bruised, she'll keep charging forward!!!

It's a lovely vision, except for one complication: she got a job.

After becoming a wage slave, she found it... a little hard to make time for romance.

Ever since Lu Xu found out Shang Lintang was back, he'd been grinding his teeth.

Hmph. He'd never give her another chance to hurt him!

That's what he said, but Lu Xu still wanted to see what Shang Lintang would do.

He never expected that after making a few moves, Shang Lintang would suddenly go quiet.

He waited and waited.

Oh, she'd gotten absorbed in work.

Well, isn't that just great.

The sky was falling!

But if Lu Xu was the creditor...
