Su Xiao, a 22-year-old design newcomer, joins the top company "Xingmang" and mistakenly identifies the aloof director Lu Zeyan as an intern handing him strawberry candies, starting a double adventure in the workplace and love. She is soft on the outside but tough on the inside, and has an amazing hand-drawing talent. When faced with the difficulties of her colleague Lin Wei and the provocations of the rich girl Xia Ran, she can always use her professional strength to "hard-core counterattack"; he is a "technical iceberg" in the industry and is extremely picky about his work, but he only keeps Su Xiao's little habits in mind - secretly collecting candy wrappers, accompanying her to change plans until late at night, and unambiguously defending her shortcomings in public.
From the ambiguity of setting up a tent hand-in-hand during camping, to the tacit understanding of working together to clarify the "plagiarism" rumors in the design competition, to the ultimate counterattack against the villain who stole the plan, the two grew up side by side in the workplace, and the salt-based guardianship and sweet-based interactions were intertwined. When Director Bingshan took the initiative to confess, "Your sweet salt is just right," and when the ring was engraved with a unique mark, the meeting that started at the workstation finally became a successful agreement of "I will buy breakfast for the rest of my life, and we will change the plan together."
Reader comments
The essence of this novel is "balance".
The author does not deliberately pile up industrial saccharine. The "sweetness" comes from the delicate emotional changes and the natural and tacit interaction between the characters. The "salt" is reflected in the candid depiction of real-life dilemmas, such as the confusion and choices the characters encounter in their growth, which gives the story a credible skeleton.
The characters are fully developed, and the protagonist has a clear growth arc; the supporting characters also have highlight moments. The plot advances in a relaxed manner, with both heart-stirring famous scenes and resonant daily life scenes.
Overall, this is a work with sincere emotions and solid details, suitable for readers who are looking for a coexistence of realism and sweetness.
