Whenever Lin Shanxiao is broke, all she has to do is smile until the corner of her mouth shows the slightest hint of a get-rich-quick grin, then reach into her pocket and pull out some money.
But Lin Shanxiao, whose moral principles are sky-high, sews up the pockets of all her clothes and hides her gorgeous smile, so she can refuse every bit of money she gets without working for it!
Then she discovers that she can pull money out of other people's pockets instead of her own..._(:з"∠)_
So when she sees her rich-guy buddy, who's a CEO, wailing and carrying on after going bankrupt, she decides to take money from his pocket every day and give it to him, so her idiot friend won't drag down the caliber of her social circle.
The CEO discovers that ever since he went bankrupt, his ordinary, sharp-tongued, broke friend Lin Shanxiao has been giving him an encouraging little smile every day and stubbornly stuffing money into his pockets.
Before long, he gets used to counting the thick wad of cash Lin Shanxiao gives him each day, quietly savoring the tenderness and domineering flair with which she stuffs it into his pocket.
Her immense and selfless love makes him feel one part overwhelming pressure, and the other nine parts are as sweet as honey!
He's fallen in love...
How did he never realize before how irresistible Lin Shanxiao was?!
CEO: "I've felt your heartfelt confession of love. I accept! Let's sail together toward the far shore of love!"
Lin Shanxiao: "Get lost!"
Warnings and notes:
1. This is a silly, fluffy, sweet romance with childish characters. The CEO is the kind of idiot whose antics are a delight.
2. The CEO in this story has as much time to flirt as CEOs in unrealistic, illogical idol dramas; the CEO in this story has as little emotional intelligence as CEOs in melodramatic soap operas; and the CEO in this story rebuilds his business empire with his money as magically fast as CEOs in old-school romance novels.
So this must be a work of high-brow magical realism... probably..._(:з"∠)_ (feeling guilty)
3. Artsy, narcissistic, girlish CEO vs. seemingly expressionless, supposedly broke, sharp-tongued girl. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
P.S. I have no idea why I came up with this crazy premise, but now that I have, I've given up on treatment_(:з"∠)_
