[Older man’s steadfast protection × younger man’s passionate devotion]
[The cold-faced boss everyone at the company fears is a completely different person with me in private.]
Shen Wanyi has been feeling a little flustered lately.
The younger guy at the coffee shop downstairs leaves her cookies every day, grinning like a puppy wagging its tail. “Senior, I’ll be waiting for you.”
The landlord and company boss, whose icy glare can freeze people in meetings, keeps showing up in person to fix her water heater. As he works, his shirt gets soaked, revealing glimpses of his abs.
She swallows and tells herself: You’re twenty-seven. Act mature.
Until one night, the drunk Cheng Yan corners her against the door.
His eyes are red at the corners as he takes her hand and presses it against his waist.
“I’m yours… every part of me.”

Later, she discovers that this man can do more than pout, get jealous, and show off in a ripped sweater
He can also email the entire company:
“I’m pursuing someone. She’s the best woman I’ve ever met.”
The whole company goes wild.
She curls up at her desk like a quail.
Meanwhile, the other young man stands in the coffee shop, his eyes red as he smiles at her:
“Senior, if he doesn’t treat you right, come to me.”
“I’ll always have your back.”

One waited ten years, finally getting her to look back at him.
The other had been plotting for a long time, ever since that photo from fifteen years ago.
She says: Give me a little time.
