Born to Be a Mismatched Pair

Her boyfriend of ten years dumped her for an apartment.

The magazine company where she had worked for years was about to be sold.

Then an intern dropped out of the sky.

Rich, handsome, gentle, considerate, and highly educated.

He wanted to pursue her on the very first day they met.

What a clear, sunny day to have a good thing fall right into her lap!

The new intern at the company, Geng Weiran, was so handsome it was practically an offense. His peach-blossom eyes sparkled whenever he looked around. Yu Lan, the department manager, was dazzled by his looks and secretly confessed to him: "You're so handsome. I like you." Geng Weiran: "What a shallow woman."

Three days later, the Human Resources Department announced that Geng Weiran was the boss's son and the company's future big boss. Ashamed beyond words, Yu Lan promptly handed in her resignation.

Geng Weiran: "Manager Yu, aren't you just trying to get my attention? Well, you succeeded."

Yu Lan: "..."

From then on, Yu Lan was the only person in the company forced to work overtime until midnight every day, with big boss Geng Weiran keeping her company. When they finished, he drove her home in his luxury car. Their dark circles grew bigger by the day.

Yu Lan: "Big Boss Geng, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have confessed to you. Please let me go and stop making me work overtime. I didn't mean anything by it. I just thought you were handsome."

Geng Weiran: "Then confess to me again, this time with all your heart. We've spent so much time alone together, enough for you to discover that I'm handsome on the inside too."

Yu Lan: "..."

Yu Lan was in a meeting, speaking passionately and spraying spit everywhere.

Geng Weiran: "Manager Yu, come to my office for a moment. I want to kiss you."

Yu Lan: "This is the office. Have you no shame?"

Geng Weiran: "I don't want shame. I want you. You're busy, so I'll come to you."

Yu Lan: "..."

Yu Lan had another argument with big boss Geng Weiran about work.

Nosy colleague: "She's got some nerve. I'll be waiting to see Yu Lan get shown the door!"

Geng Weiran closed his office door. "You can have this one for now. Let's see how I deal with you tonight."

Yu Lan: "..."

Geng Weiran gave Yu Lan a coin.

Geng Weiran: "If it lands heads, you'll marry me tomorrow. If it's tails, I'll marry you tomorrow."

Yu Lan stood the coin on its edge.

Geng Weiran: "If it lands standing up, we'll get married today."

Yu Lan: "..."

At the end of the workday, department manager Yu Lan hitched another ride home in big boss Geng Weiran's luxury car.

Nosy colleague: "The shameless have no equal."

Geng Weiran: "She's my wife. Can't I take her home with me?"
