My Soul Swapped with the CEO

Jiang Yuan'an is a well-behaved college student who has just gotten into a top university. But while working a summer job, he accidentally swaps souls with an obnoxious domineering CEO.

On the first day, he is working at a restaurant when he accidentally knocks over a customer's glass and spills red wine all over him. The customer is the famous CEO He Yuhuai. Then his boss fires him.

On the second day, he goes out to deliver food and crashes into He Yuhuai's Rolls-Royce. Since he cannot afford to pay more, he has no choice but to hand over his last 80,000 yuan in savings.

On the third day, he is handing out flyers and leading people to a new housing development when he runs into He Yuhuai, who is discussing business with the developer and inspecting the construction site.

Jiang Yuan'an had wanted to get revenge. As he passed by, he deliberately splashed milk tea all over He Yuhuai, but then a major typhoon suddenly struck.

"Damn it, every time I run into you, something bad happens!" Jiang Yuan'an shouted.

"As if I want to run into you," He Yuhuai replied, glaring coldly at him.

The two of them were heading for the underground garage to take shelter when a gust of wind suddenly swept up a glittering piece of jade and smashed it into their heads. They both tumbled into the basement and passed out on the spot.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The typhoon was still howling, uprooting trees.

When Jiang Yuan'an woke up, he was in a hospital surrounded by a group of people.

"CEO! You're finally awake!"

"C-CEO? Me?" Jiang Yuan'an looked completely bewildered. He clutched his head, which was wrapped in gauze. It hurt so much.

For some reason, He Yuhuai's assistant was hugging him and sobbing. "CEO! I'm sorry! I failed in my duty. I almost never got to see you again!"

Jiang Yuan'an looked utterly confused. He stood up with an apologetic smile. "Sorry, you've got the wrong person... I need to go home and let my parents know I'm safe."

The group stared at him in confusion as he walked out.

Then he ran into... himself.

"What the heck? Why am I standing right in front of me? Wait! Why do you look exactly like me?!"

He Yuhuai suddenly grabbed him and ran outside. They took out their phones and compared their faces, only then realizing that they had swapped souls...

He Yuhuai glared at him coldly. "Look what you've done!"

Jiang Yuan'an said, "How can you blame me? I told you there was a typhoon, but you didn't believe me... Uh, we got hit by a rock and passed out, and then our souls swapped? That's so bizarre."

They tried countless times, but never managed to switch back.

In the end, He Yuhuai went to college in his place, while Jiang Yuan'an went to work at He Yuhuai's company.

He got to experience the life of a rich man, while CEO He got to experience a life of poverty.

One day, the whole internet was talking about how Jiangcheng's top university had produced a genius, a first-year student who could solve every problem, even ones that graduate students couldn't figure out.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan'an... had completely botched every project.

He Yuhuai told him in a cold voice, "Let's pretend to be a couple from now on. That way, we can be together openly, live together, go in and out of the company, and communicate without attracting outside gossip. We'll keep in touch by phone and update each other on what's going on in real time, so we can deal with any problems that come up."

Jiang Yuan'an said, "...Sure."

1. The two of them will also switch back into their original bodies partway through the story. So when the one on the receiving end is at school, he'll be alternately clueless and brilliant. When the one on the pursuing end is at work, he'll also be alternately brilliant and unable to even chair a meeting.
