After overachieving HR director Su Miao drops dead from exhaustion, she wakes up as the heroine of an old-school angsty romance novel, a woman madly in love with the domineering male lead. Faced with the impending nightmare of “kidney removal, stand-in, and running away while pregnant,” she fires back by emailing the male lead a “Notice of Employment Risks” and a “Mental Health Assessment Form.”
Later, she starts a company, invests in projects, and recruits future big shots from the original novel as employees, turning the angsty romance plot into a corporate battlefield.
The male lead’s first love provokes her? She enthusiastically recommends a therapy package.
The male lead sends flowers? She auctions them off on the spot and donates the proceeds to charity.
They meet at a business reception? She smiles and hands him a partnership appointment form.
When Gu Yanzhi finally corners her against a wall, his eyes red, and asks, “When are you finally going to try to win me over?”
Su Miao glances at her watch, her expression professional. “Mr. Gu, it’s after hours. For relationship counseling, please follow the proper procedure. The fee is eight thousand per hour.”
[A hilarious, clear-headed, career-focused heroine x a domineering CEO who schemes himself into doubting his own sanity]
[A spectacular reversal from “She must be trying to get my attention” to “Why isn’t she trying to get my attention yet?”]
