The Domineering CEO's Exclusive Sales Associate

After her family falls on hard times, Su Wan takes a job at a luxury boutique. When she first meets Gu Yanchen, he gives her a hard time, but she uses her sharp intelligence to defuse the crisis, land a million-yuan order, and face-slap Lili, the scheming colleague who tried to steal the credit. Gu Yanchen notices that something is unusual about Su Wan, uncovers her background as a top graduate of a prestigious university, and offers her a contract as his “exclusive image consultant,” using it as an excuse to get closer to her.

The workplace harassment escalates: Lili spreads rumors and deliberately misreports inventory to frame Su Wan. But Su Wan fights back with her luxury-goods appraisal skills and financial knowledge, and earns a promotion to assistant store manager. The domineering CEO’s showy moments follow: Gu Yanchen makes a surprise appearance at the boutique and requests Su Wan’s service, summons the mall’s general manager to stand up for her, and anonymously pays for Su Wan’s mother’s surgery. Their sweet romance begins to blossom: Gu Yanchen visits the boutique under the pretext of “inspecting the service,” drives Su Wan home on a rainy day, and quietly leaves her dinner, all while pretending to be gruff despite his soft heart.
