The Shen family prides itself on generations of refinement and scholarly tradition, yet Shen Yanxing turned out to be obsessed with money.
The Ye family spent three generations chasing pleasure among the flowers, yet Ye Jiayu, of all people, turned out to be a hopeless romantic.
Ye Jiayu (smiling sideways): I seem to remember someone saying men are all useless pigs?
Boss Shen (calmly turning a page in the newspaper): Did I? I don't remember.
Ye Jiayu (nodding firmly): You did. I remember it very clearly.
Boss Shen (continuing to read): Even if I did, I'm still the finest pig in the world.
Ye Jiayu (in disbelief): ...How can you be so shameless and proud of it?!
--I'd seen the filthiest darkness in the world. I planned to spend the rest of my life as a useless wreck, but then I met you.
--A Xing, the world is actually warm. Let me take you home.
He was dragged into the mire, and darkness had fallen. She became the one light he longed for in this life.

Blurb:
After Jiang Birong narrowly escapes an assault, she spends an indescribable night with her boyfriend. When she wakes up, she discovers that he's run away.
Jiang Birong: ...What kind of immortal scumbag is this???
Gu Yuming: ...I had my reasons (╥_╥)
Years later, she takes on a project, and the boss of the company she's working with turns out to be that immortal scumbag.
Jiang Birong: Do you still want to take your company public? Do you believe I could ruin your project by doctoring the audit report?
Gu Yuming: ...You're bluffing. You couldn't bring yourself to do it (╥_╥)
Jiang Birong: ...Who gave you that confidence? =_=
A fun little scene:
At the end of the year, the audit team moves into the company again. Mr. Gu finds the auditors a bit of a headache.
In private, he complains to his wife, "I think the audit team is just looking for trouble. I can't stand seeing them."
Jiang Birong smiles faintly. "I'm an auditor too."
Mr. Gu hastily corrects himself. "Except you. Everyone else in auditing is unbearably annoying T^T"

I was saddened when I first heard that he was destined for a short life, but at least he lived a peaceful and stable life later on! I felt sorry for Shen Er's tragic childhood; if it were me, I probably would have ended up like that friend buried underground! So, protecting yourself is really important.
It's a great read, especially the descriptions of the food—they're so vivid and down-to-earth. The story is wonderfully told, the writing is smooth and natural, and the characters are well-developed and distinct.
Authors may need to carefully choose a date to start writing in the future to avoid encountering malicious content. Also, Jinjiang (a Chinese online literature platform) really needs to step in and regulate this!
Every name seemed so familiar; it was probably a book I'd read before, but it was still very enjoyable.
The latter part was truly heartbreaking, especially when it was mentioned that Shen Er left A Yu first.
I'm only now reading this book! I burst into tears when I saw the ending of the extra chapter. It's so well written! Even though it's not a typical doctor story, it's still excellent.
It was so great! O(≧v≦)o
Hooray! It's finished!! I've been having trouble finding anything to read lately, so I came across your old work and found it's actually really well-written—not a bad story at all!! Why aren't you famous yet, author?!
It's very well written! Both the male and female leads are likable!
The hospital where I interned also had a similar policy, but it was more direct: you could ask a relative to donate blood and say that the blood was for someone else's use.
