Can You Fall in Love by Replying Nonsensically to Read Messages?

The characters are unusual and the pace is rather slow. I don't plan to submit this one for rankings. Updates may slow down later, but I won't abandon it.

Bai Wanshu is "allergic" to bosses.

After being harassed by her boss during her college internship, she developed a bit of PTSD around bosses. But her new boss seems to have fallen for her at first sight because of a misunderstanding.

As an office worker with a mortgage to pay, Bai Wanshu can't change jobs. So when her boss messages her, she tries to put him off by reading his messages and replying with nonsense.

Whatever her boss says, Bai Wanshu replies with the first post she sees on social media that day.

Her boss says, "Remember to eat dinner."

Bai Wanshu replies, "There are so many people."

Her boss asks, "What flowers do you like?"

Bai Wanshu replies, "I wish I'd never studied science."

No matter how randomly Bai Wanshu replies, her boss patiently answers right away.

Until one day, it takes him a long time to reply.

That day, her boss says, "I like you."

Bai Wanshu replies, "Sorry, I'm allergic to puppies."

His long-delayed reply is, "Are puppies really out of the question?"

This hopeless romantic only gets bolder with every setback, and eventually even quits his job.

Since working at the company doesn't help anyway, he pulls out all the stops: suit, cologne, red-soled shoes, and every trick he can think of to seduce her. Bai Wanshu just thinks he's picking a fight with her.

You Yu has no desire to work at all. His lifelong dream is to be Bai Wanshu's stay-at-home husband.
