Cheng Yi was a man who wanted to become an overbearing CEO. In the end, though, he became the man of an overbearing CEO.
Cheng Yi's greatest dream in life was to become an entrepreneur as successful as Ma. Unfortunately, despite his high spirits and lofty ambitions, his career luck was always terrible. Ma was as rich as Cheng Yi was poor.
If you asked why his life had gone so badly, Cheng Yi would say with a sorrowful expression, “They all say I'm too handsome, so I look like a scammer!”
Life was hard. It wasn't enough to be ugly; apparently being beautiful was no good either.
Because of his looks, he could never hold down a job for long. At last, a company was willing to offer him a long-term contract, but the CEO insisted on interviewing him personally: his childhood friend.
Shu Meng crossed his legs. “Come work as my personal assistant.”
Cheng Yi declared righteously, “Say no to workplace sexual harassment. It starts with you and me.”
The other man scoffed. “Ridiculous. I'm only helping you because your life is such a mess. I'm not interested in your face at all. You have two choices now: become my personal assistant, with the company covering all your living expenses, or go sleep under a bridge tonight.”
Faced with his childhood friend's stern, merciless expression, Cheng Yi happily chose to bend for a few pecks of rice.
Not long after...
As the CEO pinned Cheng Yi down and had his way with him again and again, Cheng Yi finally realized he had been duped.
Cheng Yi: “Liar! Didn't you say you weren't interested in my looks?”
Shu Meng smiled faintly. “I'm not interested in your looks. I've always been very interested in you, though.”
“Liar!”
