"My Ex-Girlfriend Let Me Call Her Boss" is a short urban novel that combines workplace gaming and complex emotions. The story unfolds on Zhihu. It tells the story of Lin An, an IT marketing elite, who received an unusually generous recruitment invitation. It was not until he met the boss of the recruitment company that he was surprised to find that the person he met was his ex-girlfriend Su Qing who broke up with her seven years ago - and is now the glamorous helmsman of a southern pharmaceutical empire.
What was supposed to be a simple business invitation quickly turned into a psychological battle and business showdown across Beijing and Shenzhen. The emotional rift of the past is entangled with today's game of interests. The broken test tube rack and the cold scalpel have become the secret symbols of the two people's past, and an urgent gambling agreement has pushed the two parties into a dangerous alliance that has to cooperate.
With sharp dialogues, progressive details of business wars and delicate psychological confrontations, the work depicts how two evenly matched souls re-examine the past and compete in the present in the smoke of the mall. This is not only a story about "ex reunion", but also a profound narrative about dignity, growth, choice, and how to reconcile with the past and dance with powerful opponents in the torrent of reality. In the end, under Zhihuti's unique narrative framework, the story reaches an open and long-lasting ending, leaving readers with endless aftertaste about the workplace and emotional relationships.
