    This book is a typical "domineering CEO and his spoiled wife" story, but it's not a traditional domineering CEO novel. The female lead is a delicate, pampered girl, and her intelligence is definitely on point. Secondly, the male lead is a total slacker, incredibly handsome, and he's on the path to forgetting his roots ◔.̮◔✧
