    Synopsis of "Picking Up a Crybaby CEO in Lujiazui": Su Man, collapsing from overtime work on a rainy night, accidentally smashes the window of Gu Chengzhou's Maybach, the CEO of a top Shanghai investment bank. Glass shards mixed with rain streaks across the man's reddened eyes. The "cold-blooded capital machine" in financial headlines, a suit-wearing thug, is now curled up in the back seat, clutching his asthma medication, his wet hair clinging to his pale face—like an abandoned, expensive stray cat. This top secretary in the CEO's office, known for her "zero-error" record, is forced to sign a "personal debt repayment" agreement. She shields him from a drugged drinking session, and he tacitly allows her to smear coffee stains on her bespoke suit; she mocks him as an "AI with a mind of its own," yet he secretly captures a mere 0.01 Seconds of her smiling canine teeth while watching her feed stray cats on CCTV. When Su Man discovers Gu Chengzhou's yellowed diary locked in a safe, she learns that he goes to the ATM booth every year during typhoons—the only haven the ten-year-old boy could find on the rainy night his mother committed suicide. Gu Chengzhou gripped her trembling shoulder blades, revealing the secret behind her ever-present turtleneck: "Three years ago, in the financial district's multi-car pileup, the girl in the passenger seat was you." The former scumbag returned with a multi-billion dollar contract, invitations to a high-society marriage flying everywhere. Gu Chengzhou smashed his ancestral jade ring in public, hanging Su Man's coffee-stained name tag on the auction stage: "I'm betting my entire fortune, betting you'll see the storm pass—" "The light at five in the morning in Lujiazui only wakes the trapped beasts licking their wounds."
