Lin Yuzhu unexpectedly awakens the ability to read minds. More surprising still, the person whose thoughts she can hear is Jiang Keze, the younger brother of her ex-boyfriend, who has come to interview for an internship.
She expects an awkward reunion at work, but instead, it becomes the hilarious “stand-up comedy” show she looks forward to most every day.
Thinking she has the inside scoop, Lin Yuzhu gives in to her mischievous streak and launches a full-on campaign of “reverse probing.” She keeps him guessing, pushing him step by step, and delights in watching him appear cool as a cucumber while his inner world collapses into chaos.
Lin Yuzhu thinks it’s just a one-sided game of cat and mouse.
Until one day, the big boy who is always so careful, too afraid even to let on when he’s jealous, sighs in his heart with utter humility: “I don’t care what she thinks of me. As long as I can stay by her side, I’d even be her pet.”
Only then does Lin Yuzhu realize that this game of hide-and-seek, which seemed to be entirely under her control, has long been riddled with traps called devotion.
That scaredy-cat who cries during horror movies actually dares to bare his sharp wolf’s fangs to her in a couples’ private room at midnight...
“If all that scheming you think you’ve hidden so well is completely out in the open to me...”
Lin Yuzhu makes up her mind: “Why not give it a try?”
