[Cold, Abstinent Grim Reaper] VS [Delicate Beauty with a Hidden Secret Identity]

At the most lavish engagement party in Nancheng, Rui Chen was splashed in the face with wine.

Three hundred people watched as she was dragged outside and made to kneel on the steps.

No one spoke up for her.

Except the one person who should have kept quiet.

Su Ran, head of the Changran Group, was known in Nancheng as the Grim Reaper. She set down her glass and said eight words:

"I want the Xi family's assets."

Rui Chen was claimed as an assistant and assigned to serve Su Ran personally.

Everyone thought Su Ran had acted on a whim.

Rui Chen thought so too.

No one knew that she had hated Su Ran for five years.

Over those five years, she had gone from an adopted daughter cast aside to the mysterious, max-level powerhouse known as "Nine Stars."

But little by little, she realized something was wrong.

The second drawer on the left side of Su Ran's office held a photo of Rui Chen at nineteen.

Su Ran's computer password was 2019618, the day she first saw Rui Chen.

She had written a book called Thirty-Seven Things About Her. The first entry: She is afraid of the dark.

Rui Chen smashed a glass. "I've hated you for five years. What have you been doing all this time?"

Su Ran held the steering wheel and replied calmly,

"Waiting for you."

Only later did she learn that on the day she was thrown out, Su Ran had sat in a car three hundred meters away, from eight in the morning until five in the afternoon.

"Why didn't you get out of the car?"

"Because if I had, you would have been ruined."

She had hated her for five years.

That person had been secretly in love with her for five years.
