[Sharp-tongued CEO who dotes on his wife × ex-girlfriend from the demolition office who loves to complain]
P.S. Both leads are chaste.
Jiang Wan, 25, has a legendary resume that boasts of "bringing down two companies."
At her third interview, she pushed open the conference room door and froze.
The interviewer was Shen Hanzhou, the ex-boyfriend she'd dumped three years ago.
When they broke up, the last thing her sharp-tongued ex had said through gritted teeth was, "You'd better pray we never meet again."
But Jiang Wan needed to make a living, so after thinking it over, she decided to stay.
Jiang Wan thought he'd use his position to get revenge. But on her first day, she realized she'd been overthinking it. He didn't need to take revenge. He was already sharp-tongued enough as a normal boss.
"Your dialogue reads like AI wrote it."
"You're the worst batch I've ever supervised."
"Redo this proposal."
When she got dragged on the trending list, he sneered, "Do I have to teach you how to handle getting flamed, too?"
When she was accused of plagiarism, he tossed out the evidence. "She's my person. Outsiders don't get to point fingers at her."
When she stayed up all night fixing bugs, he sat beside her. "Hurry up and fix them. Don't make me late getting off work."
Jiang Wan gradually realized that he hadn't kept her by his side to torment her. He was sick, and very sick indeed.
Shen Hanzhou: "You're right. I've got an illness that means I can't live without you."
Jiang Wan: "Confirmed. You really are sick."
