[Reborn, clear-headed female lead + a cast of villains + male lead falls for her on his own + satisfying workplace drama + intense romantic tension]
In her previous life, Xie Zhi's love was a cage that drove Ruan Tang to leap from the twenty-eighth floor.
Reborn on the day they first met after a car accident, Ruan Tang looked at the familiar Maybach, wiped the blood from her face, and smiled.
This time, she wanted neither his life nor his love. All she wanted was his money and power.
Ruan Tang: “Young Master Xie, you hit someone. Asking you to pay up with a project worth tens of billions is fair, isn't it?”
Xie Zhi thought she was trying to get his attention. He watched coldly, waiting for her to come crying and beg for mercy.
But then
Xie Zhi went mad. He panicked.
He cut off her income, so she turned to someone else. He pressured and bullied her, but she stood her ground even more firmly.
Yet when she actually bared her claws at him to protect someone else, the arrogant heir of Beijing's most powerful family suddenly twisted the situation around in his head:
“She went this far just to make me jealous. She really does care about me.”
“She made me her driver, which means she depends on me.”
“She ignores me because she's acting coy.”
Later, everyone in the capital saw the gloomy, ruthless Young Master Xie sitting obediently in President Ruan's office, scaring a client who wanted to skip out on payment into dropping to his knees and calling him Daddy.
Xie Zhi, in his self-deluded era: “She may talk tough, but fate says she needs me.”
Ruan Tang, focused on making money: “He may be crazy, but he's genuinely useful.”
#I planned to use him and toss him aside, but what do you do when your human tool is so handy you can't bear to replace him? Asking for a friend. It's urgent.#
