My Boss Always Keeps Me Guessing

Updated 2020.08.01. A slow-burn story.

Zeng Xubai, an ordinary undergraduate, accidentally wanders into the wrong exam room while taking the College English Test Band 4 and is recruited as a member of the Asia Special Administration Bureau.

Zeng Xubai’s supervisor is an ice-cold beauty. At first, she has no idea just how unusual her boss is. But as one mission after another unfolds, her boss keeps finding spectacular ways to get herself killed, only to survive against all odds. That’s when Zeng Xubai realizes her boss is a complete nutcase.

She suddenly feels like her accidental death insurance is about to come in handy. And apparently, the organization doesn’t even offer social insurance or a housing fund!

Now that’s something to worry about. This is a serious problem!

(Notes: 1. The female lead is the supervisor, Gao Qingling.

2. The male lead won’t appear until the middle or later part of the story. He’s a handsome fox spirit who has already appeared earlier, if you can spot him.

3. Expect made-up folklore and exorcisms using physics. A hodgepodge of all kinds of pairings.

As always, it has the familiar goofy style. This is an attempt at a new genre in a tiny niche, and it’s a slow burn. Make it through the first volume and you’ve won. Just go for it.)

Theme: An organization without social insurance and a housing fund is no good
