My Broken System Says the Boss Across the Way Has a Secret Crush on Me

[A seemingly aloof gong who is a drama queen inside × a sunny, forward shou who loves to flirt]

When a lousy System insists on pairing me up with the big shot next door, two career-minded people find themselves falling for each other in a romance plot.

A cultivator and Daoist healer from another world, now in the modern era: I run an acupuncture clinic on the surface, but really, I complete System missions to restore my inheritance. The tech CEO next door keeps popping up on my mission list. I coolly turn him down three times, while inwardly imagining eight hundred episodes of him secretly pining for me.

Then, at an auction, spiritual energy spirals out of control. He seals off the venue with spirit-powered machinery, while I use golden needles to stabilize the meridians. At the ruins, with our lives on the line, I use a forbidden technique and suffer its backlash for his sake. He spends the whole night searching for medicine, never leaving my side.

Later, we discover that his technological core resonates with a relic from my sect, and the System's missions point to the truth behind an ancient cataclysm.

When Daoist healing meets spirit-energy technology, and a lovesick romantic meets a career-minded achiever, it turns out this is the only way to save two worlds. We join forces to build our careers and find time for romance, writing a romantic legend of past and present amid the undercurrents of urban cultivation.
