[Mind-reading CEO × mortifyingly awkward office worker] 🆘 Su Xiaotang swears she’s just an ordinary employee, until she discovers that CEO Lu Shiyan can hear her thoughts!
Lu Shiyan
- On the outside: A cold, abstinent, unapproachable CEO of a tech company, known throughout the industry as a “work machine.” He’s indifferent to everything around him, and every word he says seems to come with a chill.
- On the inside: Mildly obsessive-compulsive, easily amused by ridiculous things but too proud to show it. He gradually falls for the heroine’s genuine inner self, becoming a doting husband while stubbornly refusing to admit it.
Su Xiaotang
- On the outside: A socially anxious newbie at work who speaks gently and timidly, instinctively “acts obedient” whenever trouble arises, and tries hard to play the part of a “model employee.”
- On the inside: A goofy chatterbox with a wild imagination and an unstoppable urge to complain. She loves making up all sorts of melodramatic scenarios in her head and roasting the hero in every way imaginable. She’s naturally a sucker for handsome men, but never lets it show. The thoughts in her head are the complete opposite of how she acts.
Scene One: A business partner’s daughter flirts with Lu Shiyan.
Su Xiaotang on the outside: Head down, working diligently, the picture of peace and quiet.
In her head: [Look at this scheming little green tea! Her eyes are about to roll right out of her head! Run, CEO! She wants your money, I want your face!]
Lu Shiyan almost bursts out laughing.
Scene Two: Lu Shiyan shields Su Xiaotang from a cup of coffee thrown at her.
Su Xiaotang on the outside: “Are you all right, Mr. Lu?” (Extremely worried.)
In her head: [Ahhh, he took a hit for me! He has feelings for me! Help, I’m falling for him! I’ve even picked out our kids’ names!]
Everyone: ...Why is CEO Lu blushing?
Help, Su Xiaotang looks like a little white rabbit on the outside, but inside she’s a ferocious T. rex. I think... I like her even more.
