Twenty-four-year-old Nishimiya Shaoyao is in a crisis: her family is on the verge of bankruptcy. Her tutor tells her that the one responsible is none other than the most powerful family, the Vongola!
To save her family, she applies to become the Tenth Generation Vongola boss's personal assistant, planning to seize an opportunity to kidnap him. On her first day, she prepares a grand gift for him:
Shaoyao: Please have some coffee. (With ten times the usual dose of paralyzing herb.)
Victim, the Tenth Generation boss: Gulp... Ugh! It's... actually pretty good.
He didn't collapse? This is terrifying!
And so begins her daily life of trying to take him down. Her methods include tripping him on his usual route to knock him out, burning hypnotic incense in the office to make him pass out, and hiding his banquet speech so he'll humiliate himself...
But at this accursed banquet, someone actually dares to make a move against her target!
--
The man at the top, who always faces crises calmly, stares blankly at his personal assistant, who is always doing strange things.
She just took a bullet for him.
And confidently declared that he belonged to her.
The Vongola boss, whose romantic experience is zero, is left completely blank as his feelings helplessly race in the opposite direction.
Ah, she likes me!
He's certain this isn't his imagination.
As their feelings gradually grow, the Vongola boss decides to propose. He arranges to meet her alone at a chapel in the countryside.
But Shaoyao misunderstands and arrives fully armed, determined to win this duel.
Only, when she turns and points her gun at the Vongola boss's forehead, he is down on one knee, holding up a diamond ring.
