A cool, composed queen with a sharp tongue, a knack for showing off, and a touch of chuunibyou
A fragile, calculating man with separation anxiety, as aloof as a flower on a mountaintop

The year 2065 of the Federation calendar: the first year of peace between the Federation and the Empire, and the 230th year of the Pollution's invasion.
Chen Ling never trips while walking, can't be hit by anything thrown from above, and never loses money on lottery tickets...
Thanks to her precognition ability, Chen Ling has sailed through the first eighteen years of her life without disaster or hardship.
She once thought she would live quietly with her power, like the protagonist of a movie, until she stepped straight into a contaminated zone.
A man in a black combat suit looks her up and down, then pulls out his ID. “An ability user? Interested in joining the Ability Management Bureau?”
Chen Ling, covered in blood and still shaken after being chased all the way there by a contaminant: “Huh? Me?”
Other ability users control fire, control lightning, teleport, transform into beasts...
Chen Ling is the contaminated zone's indispensable alarm, a human pathfinder, and a moving target vulnerable from every direction.
Chen Ling's response: “You people have no idea what you're looking at.”
Her ability isn't taken seriously? No problem. She's got another trick up her sleeve.

【Let's talk about a certain double-ability genius at the Ability Management Bureau.】
【Not trying to hype her up, but it really is a bit exaggerated. The last time we faced off in an assessment, she didn't beat me to death, did she?】
【Terrifying powers of observation... terrifying combat instincts. She predicted every move I made, and I couldn't fight back at all... I'm done, I want to go home!】
【Just kidding. Once Sister Ling's taming ability kicks in, even contaminants line up to be her dogs.】
【Anyone have Sister Ling's contact info? I have a handsome face, so maybe I can get a great result.】
Chen Ling stops scrolling, clicks through to the poster's profile, and takes a look at his photo. His face isn't as handsome as he imagined.
Disappointed, she shakes her head and casually reports the post.
Ah, being too much of a genius is a real nuisance.

1. My own take on a growth-oriented power fantasy
2. Strong female lead
3. A tiny bit scary, maybe
4. The male lead appears rather late
