After the Socially Anxious Guy Bound to a CEO System

★ Complete, thank you for reading~

After learning she had a terminal illness, Ji Weian became bound to a domineering CEO System.

She embarrassed herself in front of her contract-marriage husband during her very first mission.

Overcome by an indescribable sense of shame and frustration, the young woman felt tears well up, blurring her vision.

Fu Chengxiao, rumored to be cold-hearted and blunt, fell silent for a moment before saying stiffly, "Can you please not cry?"

His words were clumsy and his tone was hard, but they carried a hint of compromise and comfort.

Ji Weian cried even harder.

The more time she spent with Fu Chengxiao, the more Ji Weian realized he wasn't as difficult to get along with as she'd imagined. On the contrary, she thought he was kind, helpful, and always willing to lend a hand.

But she knew their contract was still in effect and refused to entertain any fantasies, carefully holding the line she had drawn in her heart.

So even after agonizing over a gift that might be open to misinterpretation, she never gave it to him.

Much later, her reserved, proper, and meticulous husband let something slip and brought it up again.

Last time she went out, Ji Weian brought gifts home for everyone in the family except Fu Chengxiao.

"Ji Weian."

He looked down at her with a stern face. "Where's mine?"

She was surprised he remembered, and even more astonished that he would make such an improper, overstepping request. But in the end, she gave him the perfume.

Fu Chengxiao didn't say whether he liked it.

But later, when he drew her into his arms, the cool, clean scent she caught was the same one.

Calm and self-possessed, rational and meticulous, a perfect gentleman: that was Fu Chengxiao's first impression on others.

Only later did Ji Weian discover the truth.

Once the lights went out,

all of that was just Mr. Fu's hypocritical facade.

The day Su Qingyan gave up pursuing Jiang Boyan, she saw the aloof, rigid top student at a bar.

He was drunk. His usually solemn, composed features had lost their usual reserve, and when he looked up, his gaze was tinged with worldly desire, like a god who had fallen into hell.

Other regulars wouldn't leave him alone. Su Qingyan, chatting with someone at the booth opposite, couldn't stand watching, so she went over to help.

Jiang Boyan looked at her, the tear mole at the corner of his reddened eye seeming even colder. "Is that your new target?"

He was drunk, but his words were just as cold and distant as ever, and now he was being downright unreasonable.

Su Qingyan furrowed her brow, remembering their earlier argument. Irritated, she said, "That's none of your business."

"I'm not drunk." Jiang Boyan pressed his thin lips together and replied indifferently. "And I don't need you to look after me."

Su Qingyan: "..."

Then move aside and stop blocking the way.
