Several hundred years ago, Xu Zhixing, an elder of an immortal sect, lived in seclusion on a little hill, cultivating immortality and raising dogs, carefree and content.
Several hundred years later, the all-capable Secretary Xu lives alone downtown, going to work and shopping, just as carefree and content as ever.
The little ups and downs of life don't bother her. Retirement is just around the corner.
Xu Zhixing starts taking stock of all the fun things she hasn't tried yet.
"I still need a pet," she thinks.
The young, accomplished, and elegant President Gu happens to pass by the secretarial office and overhears his colleagues chatting. He hears his chief secretary say she wants a dog.
"It should be perceptive," Secretary Xu says.
German Shepherds are smart.
"And good-tempered," Secretary Xu adds.
Golden Retrievers are gentle.
He makes a note of the second option.
Come to think of it... Can she keep up with walking a dog every day?
"It should be muscular, but not too much."
That's something he doesn't know much about.
He pulls out his phone and starts looking it up.
"At least 180 centimeters tall."
His mind goes blank for a second.
"Preferably with fair skin, too." Secretary Xu says with a troubled look. "I don't appreciate a tan."
President Gu reaches out and rolls up his sleeve to take a look.
In the end, Secretary Xu sighs. "Never mind. I'll take my time choosing. There are plenty of options anyway."
President Gu can't sleep that night.
After mulling it over, he worries that Secretary Xu might get so distracted choosing that her work efficiency will suffer.
So he decides to be Secretary Xu's dog himself.
