Fu Zhike was cool and reserved, never showing anyone mercy. Everyone at the company feared him.
The old hands did their best to shatter the young intern's fantasies, but even they had to admit he had a face that could easily make someone fall for him.
Meng Qingxiao had been pampered all her life, a rich young lady who had never lifted a finger. After being thrown out of the Meng family, she was forced to fend for herself.
She submitted her resume to Fu Corporation, and on her first day, discovered that her boss was her weekend boyfriend.
She watched the suited man walk past her and didn't dare make a sound.
Back at the villa, Fu Zhike sat quietly on the sofa and said in a low voice, "If you want a job..."
He knew her family misunderstood, thinking she'd slept with him to get a job.
Meng Qingxiao hurried to explain, "It was a coincidence, a coincidence."
Fu Zhike's gaze was sharp as he looked her over. He said nothing, then got up and went upstairs.
After going through shock, calm, and guilt, Meng Qingxiao thought... might as well make do and sleep here.

Their good times didn't last. Her identity was exposed, and before Fu Zhike could fire her, she packed her bags and left, then took over the family business.
Fu Zhike waited two hours in the empty villa, but she never came to explain.
She really had gotten used to throwing her weight around with him.
Cursing her as heartless in his mind, Fu Zhike got up and drove to her new rented home.
On a stormy night, Fu Zhike sat in the driver's seat, looking at Meng Qingxiao through the rain-streaked window.
Over the phone, the man spoke patiently in a low voice. "I'll give you a chance to apologize."
After a long silence, Meng Qingxiao, as spineless as ever, looked at him through the rain and struggled to hold back her tears. "I'm sorry. I was wrong."
She must have been a little sad after leaving him.
Fu Zhike was quite pleased. His expression remained composed. "What else?"
Her stomach growled. Meng Qingxiao thought for a moment, then stopped choking back tears and said innocently and pitifully, "I'm craving tomato meat sauce spaghetti. Could you make some for me?"
