   This! The plot is roughly that the male and female protagonists are engaged, and the male protagonist's family is the richest man. The male protagonist fell in love with the female protagonist at first sight since childhood, and they have never met each other, but the male protagonist has always been thinking about the female protagonist, and even chose to go abroad to train himself for the female protagonist. The first thing he did after returning to China was to get close to the heroine, so he asked her to be his assistant. The heroine is a child of a high-ranking official, but her mother died early and her father ignored her. She grew up under the care of her grandparents. She lost some memories due to childhood trauma, including her first meeting with the male protagonist. The heroine went to a prestigious university for her undergraduate and postgraduate studies, and later became a diplomat.

   One of the most enjoyable books I read this year is The Sapiosexual Ceiling. It is not suitable for young readers who have no social experience. The business battle part is very exciting, and the emotional line between the two strong men is also very touching. The writing style is very good and cannot be matched by novice writers. The only problem is that there is no meal replacement, who can find a book of this level. Please pass it on to me.
