[Her Perspective]
After graduating from college, Geng Fan joined an internet company and became a coder, scrambling to keep up in a cubicle farm.
On top of her actual work, she also had to argue with the project manager and watch out for colleagues trying to shift the blame onto her...
Even her gorgeous dreamboat of a boss, Lu Yiyang, couldn't rescue her from the feeling that going to work every day was like visiting a grave!
Then one day, her dreamboat boss confessed to her at the graveyard!
But to Geng Fan, his tender, romantic expression seemed to have the words "weekend overtime" written across it in giant bold letters.
She'd planned to reject him mercilessly and humiliate him, but Geng Fan was a good person and hated making others uncomfortable. So she lowered her head, put on a shy look, and murmured, "Actually... Actually, I kind of like... myself~"
Lu Yiyang: ...
[His Perspective]
Lu Yiyang used to be an actor. Later, he left the industry and joined his best friend's internet company as a department director, but his real dream was to paint.
In his short but eventful thirty years, he'd faced only two major hurdles. One led him to meet Geng Fan and secretly keep her in his heart for nine years. The other came from Geng Fan herself.
He thought his nine-year unrequited love was already a big enough hurdle, but it turned out to be just the beginning of his long journey to win his wife over.
"I could never fall in love with a coworker."
That was the answer he got when he finally worked up the courage to confess again.
At the time, Geng Fan's expression was calm, but her tone was unwavering.
His heart, pounding with nervous anticipation, fell straight to the bottom and shattered into pieces.
He slunk back with his head bowed, only for his friend Du Yuan to mercilessly mock him.
Later, he walked out of the civil affairs bureau clutching their marriage certificate, crossed his legs in Du Yuan's office, brushed nonexistent dust from his trouser leg, and said, "Well, marriage isn't all that great!"
But the grin on his face was harder to suppress than an AK...
