"Should I turn on the light?"
"Better leave it off."
The next second, Xia Wanxing was lifted into strong arms.
Moonlight spilled over the figures by the window. Her fair skin was like a mille-feuille cream cake: finish one layer, and there was another.
Xia Wanxing looked forward to spending the night with Ji Chenfeng because it let her relax.
She didn't have to worry about missing a message from her boss in the middle of the night. As his secretary, she had to stay alert at all times.
So every time, she did her best to wear her boss out, lest his workaholic nature flare up and he shake her awake in the middle of the night to check some documents.
But if she worked so hard, why was she still being woken up in the middle of the night...

After that unexpected incident, Ji Chenfeng and his secretary became involved in several ways.
They weren't exactly lovers. They each got what they needed.
In her day-to-day life, Xia Wanxing was stiff and dull, always in dark outfits and black-rimmed glasses. She'd been with him for two years, and he'd never imagined she could be so different in private.
At night, her uncovered eyes looked straight at him, brighter than the stars, like a blazing fire in an abyss.
Her soft, delicate voice whispered, "I want to sleep with you."
She was outstanding at her job and never asked him for anything, only appearing when she was needed. The heart that Ji Chenfeng had spent years keeping from beating for any woman suddenly opened a passage.
One day, he'd just prepared a small black gift box when Xia Wanxing handed him her resignation letter.
Ji Chenfeng looked up at her. His calm eyes were like a black-and-white television with no signal. Deliberately, he added another zero to the check and handed it over.
She took it without hesitation and left him with only one line: "Boss, see you never."
#Two years later, they reunite. The proud, hulking snow tiger turns into a pitiful rag doll: "Wanwan, you lied to me."
"Xia" unruffled as an ancient well "Wan" diligent, hardworking, and honest *xing*
"Ji" arrogant and aloof "Chen" thinks he was swindled out of his money, body, and heart *feng*
*One-on-one, both sexually inexperienced, happy ending, romantic push and pull
