[A fake-tough old man gets his comeuppance + a lovestruck puppy fights to win her back + an invincible, satisfying heroine face-slaps everyone] Gu Yanzhou could not understand. He had only given her the lowest possible performance rating, and only failed to give her the promotion he had promised. What did any of that matter? How had the woman who once obeyed his every word and cared for him in every way suddenly become a completely different person?

Xie Jiuheng had served at Gu Yanzhou's side for three years, attending to his every need, all because she owed him a karmic debt. As a result, her spiritual power had congealed, and her cultivation had stagnated.
To repay that debt, she had cast aside her dignity over those three years and agreed to every demand Gu Yanzhou made of her.
Gu Yanzhou's friends teased him for having a top-tier groveling dog: she never fought back when hit or talked back when scolded, always meekly accepting whatever came her way and never resisting.
Everyone said Xie Jiuheng was madly in love with Gu Yanzhou, willing to suffer the loss of all her dignity for him. Gu Yanzhou thought so too.
But only Xie Jiuheng knew that her spiritual power had shown no sign of recovering throughout those three years.
That was until the young master of the Gu family, who had gone missing as a child, returned home. The instant their fingertips touched, Xie Jiuheng heard the echo of her spiritual power stirring.
The female lead seems weak, so the idea that she needs to use her heart's blood to regain her spiritual power is rather pointless. Also, her earlier attempts to appease Gu Yanzhou to settle karmic debts were so subservient; a strong woman like her can't stand such humiliation and is annoyed.
It's so frustrating. It feels like everyone looks down on the female lead, and she can't even use her abilities. It's so disheartening. Is it too little to only earn 5,000 yuan a month for three years? Even the receptionists at this big company earn 7,000 or 8,000 yuan!
Why are the surnames always wrong? Did they copy them over and forget to change the names? I thought it was some other account and was even looking forward to it, but then I realized the second male lead's name is wrong and the female lead's name is wrong too.
