She was troublesome, noisy, and always causing problems, and he still had to take care of her! Shen Yanxi couldn't understand why anyone would like Ji Li. His words were as sharp as blades, enough to cut someone to pieces. He was selfish and domineering, and she still had to do what he said! [1] When Shen Yanxi was heartbroken, Ji Li said, "It's 9:55 now. I have a conference call in five minutes, so hurry up and cry. Cry faster." [2] Shen Yanxi called Ji Li a devil. Ji Li said, "I could also be your spiritual father." [3] Shen Yanxi said she was cutting ties with Ji Li. He immediately hit the brakes. "Get out." Shen Yanxi couldn't believe it. "You're really going to leave a female celebrity like me on the road in the middle of the night? You'll drive away in a fit of pique, without even considering what might happen to me if I run into danger?" Ji Li: "I'm not driving away." Shen Yanxi: "..." Ji Li: "I'm driving right beside you." Shen Yanxi: "..." Ji Li: "Watching you walk. :)" Male lead: A scheming big boss who's obsessed with getting cremated on the spot Female lead: A top-tier star, an acting powerhouse, and a spoiled heiress, all raised by the big boss himself · Childhood sweethearts, but the story doesn't start when they're children · Two powerful leads, both sexually inexperienced, and each other's first love in the strictest sense.
