[Penny-pinching, third-rate comic artist x perfectionist, petty CEO]
Su Yanning is a lousy comic artist.
After getting scammed while looking for a job after graduation, she can only exploit a bug in the system and slack off, drawing idiotic CEO romances for a fixed monthly salary while diligently taking on part-time work.
So she mindlessly draws her CEO hero crammed into a subway during rush hour.
She draws his beloved heroine about to fall, and the CEO hero losing his composure and rushing up the stairs to save her. If you're a man, climb twenty flights!
She draws the CEO hero sweeping the heroine off her feet and taking her to the fanciest restaurant in town, only for the bill to come to 400 yuan per person.
With such idiotic plots, readers and the company naturally rake her over the coals.
But Su Yanning doesn't care. The company forced her to use a pen name, and it's not even hers.
This is what the company gets for screwing her over!

Xie Hanlin had an urgent errand to run, but all his vehicles were out of order, so for some reason he chose to take the subway.
There, he was squeezed by a sea of people until he felt like a dried-up mouse, and attacked by the smell inside the subway car in the sweltering summer heat.
While inspecting a project, Xie Hanlin's body acted on its own. He trudged up more than ten flights of stairs, then grabbed Su Yanning, a part-time worker who was about to fall.
There went his freshly taken shower.
Xie Hanlin kept his promise and took Su Yanning to a high-end restaurant. They paid 800 yuan in total. Then he stared at the bill, wondering why on earth he'd picked this place.
Is the food here even clean?
Ever since meeting Su Yanning, nothing went his way. One mishap followed another.
A materialist, he began to suspect some mysterious force was at work.
Then one day, the comic that countless people had mocked trended online, and Xie Hanlin suddenly realized everything had already been recorded in its pages.

I changed the title to a shorter one, so it won't be folded and I can't read it completely! 😳
