The First Day of Sharing Feelings with a Big Shot [Reborn]

Guan Yue didn't understand.

When other people are reborn, they reclaim what should have been theirs: status, power, love, money...

So why was his second chance meant to make him give it all up?

Was he unworthy?

In his previous life, he was the "Great Demon King" of the tech world, proving that technology could destroy the world. As he brought down the nation's vital Beiyuan Institute, he also destroyed human society as a whole.

One empathy chip, one accident, and people's minds went haywire. Monsters ran amok, and the world came to an end. He died taking responsibility, leaving no corpse behind.

Back at the high point of his life, he learned from his mistakes and made up his mind: Give it up!

Though his parents had pinned their hopes on him and people looked down on him... he could give up on his dream, but he had to draw the line somewhere, right?

Heaven said: No.

Guan Yue: ...

Heaven didn't just say no, it also sent him a man.

This man:

Nine academicians in one family, making the title seem almost worthless;

Handsome and tall, with research institutes selling merchandise of him;

A perpetual pretty face whose daily job was to look elegant and send the institute director into a panic.

Yet this one-of-a-kind man was fascinated by empathy chips.

Xiao Nan: "Need volunteers? Sign me up."

Guan Yue: "...Sorry, our requirements are strict. We need someone composed."

Xiao Nan: "So being too small won't work?"

Guan Yue: "???" Wait, what can't be too small?

And so began his first bewildering day of empathizing with a big shot.

When you connect, you get the shock of your life.

Guan Yue: "I-I just have to get a little hard for it to work this well?"

Xiao Nan: "Huh? Just me getting a little shy has such a miraculous effect?"

I'm sold!

Arrogant, scheming CEO who gets humbled x commoner who rises to the top
