Scheming Tycoon x Glamorous Secretary
An Intense Push and Pull | Pretending Not to Know Each Other in Public, Kissing Like Crazy in Private
Shen Zongxun, the head of the Shen family, is regarded by outsiders as immensely powerful and ruthless in his dealings. Since birth, he has stood above the clouds. His wealth, power, and looks are all top-tier.
As Shen Zongxun's chief secretary, Li Zhiwei is calm and capable, managing all of his affairs in perfect order without ever saying more than necessary.
They work on the top floor and share the same space, yet their interactions seem limited to work emails and documents awaiting signatures.
Everyone says Li Zhiwei is Shen Zongxun's perfect assistant and the most proper of subordinates. They keep things strictly professional, as distant as strangers who have just met.
Of course, that is only how things look to outsiders.
No one knows they were once the closest of lovers.

She still remembers the day they met again. He sat serenely at the center of a group of executives, utterly unruffled.
The interviewer politely announced, "Please wait at home for the results."
Before the words had even left his mouth, the man spoke coolly: "There's no need to wait. Send out the offer today."
His gaze shifted and settled on the striking figure at the far left. "Give it to her."
After Li Zhiwei joined the company, rumors spread everywhere. Some said she had gotten in through connections; others said she had relied on her pretty face.
But sooner or later, those who spread rumors about her quietly left for one reason or another.
Gradually, no one dared gossip about her anymore. After all, everyone could see that Shen Zongxun showed no particular favor toward Li Zhiwei. If anything, he was so formally polite that it was almost excessive.
But no one knew that once the Office of the Board of Directors door closed, she would call him "ex-husband," over and over, until he angrily pulled her into his arms and kissed her speechless.
"Go on, try saying that one more time."

Li Zhiwei called him "ex-husband" not only at the office, but in bed, too. The more she said it, the more she enjoyed it.
Until one day, he happened to hear her telling a coworker, "I want to find a boyfriend."
That night, he fiercely "persuaded" her until she gave in.
"Why look for a boyfriend?" he said unhurriedly. "Your ex-husband knows you best."
Later, one day at the office, he stopped her with a perfectly serious expression. "Secretary Li. Everyone at the company says you're my ex-girlfriend. Would you consider clearing up the rumor?"
"Why would I clear it up? It's true." Li Zhiwei smiled with irresistible charm, her red lips parting as she enunciated each word. "Ex. Hus. Band."
His gaze darkened. He gripped her chin, glanced at the ring on her finger, and spoke in a husky voice:
"You should say you're my current girlfriend."
