After Binding to a System, I Put on an Awkward Act in Front of the CEO Every Day

Xia Miao only wants to be a salaried worker who clocks out on time. Then she gets bound to a domineering CEO System dedicated to making her die of embarrassment.

From then on, her career veers off the smooth road and onto a melodramatic stage.

Xia Miao spends every day pondering three philosophical questions:

Did I fail today’s mission? Do I still have a job? Why haven’t I been fired yet?

Yan Chizheng lives by the creed that everything is under control.

That is, until he meets a woman determined to let loose in front of him.

Yan Chizheng’s friends split into two camps: one thinks the woman is up to no good; the other thinks Yan Chizheng should get his head checked if he’s really going to let her keep getting close.

As for Yan Chizheng himself, when she goes wild in the middle of the night to check up on him, he simply asks considerately, “It’s raining outside. There are blankets in the guest room. Would you like to stay?”

Xia Miao always thinks that, in this powerful man’s eyes, she’s just a silly fool who keeps bouncing around.

It takes her a long time to find out that after every humiliating stunt she forces herself to pull, Yan Chizheng quietly smooths things over for her, then tells everyone else nonchalantly, “She’s trying something new lately. Don’t mind her.”
