The CEO’s Special Assistant Says No to 007

[The story has been carefully edited. The pirated version is incomplete, so please don't read it.] Chi Ke died suddenly on the day he was promoted to director. He was 26. As an office worker ground down by the 996 work schedule, his last thought before dying was: In my next life, I have to get eight hours of sleep every day. Then he transmigrated into the assistant to a domineering CEO in a melodramatic rich-family novel, where he was forced to work around the clock. Chi Ke had read the novel, from the age of fifteen to twenty-five. Since the protagonist shared his full name, he had found it all too easy to identify with him. When the CEO called his assistant at three in the morning, Chi Ke was so angry his hands and feet went numb. When the CEO skipped a meeting for no reason to pursue his true love, Chi Ke got so furious he developed mouth ulcers. When the CEO forced his assistant to find a doctor to perform a heart transplant, Chi Ke cursed up a storm... In short, this was a world where rich people had no brains and only the working class got hurt. He had barely arrived when the CEO's call came in like a death knell. Chi Ke was silent for a moment, then fished out a copy of the Civil Code, stuffed it in his bag, and headed to the CEO's five-thousand-square-meter mansion. I don't care if you're Mr. Li, Mr. Leng, or Mr. Sima. Learn the law and behave before you try to be a boss! Illogical tropes were everywhere in melodramatic CEO novels. For instance, Auntie Wang always managed to take time off when the CEO was at his most vulnerable. The butler always said, “The young master hasn't smiled in ages.” The devoted second male lead always got rejected while acting as the protagonist's big brother. And the private doctor who had a crush on the protagonist bottom always came rushing over in the middle of the night, ready to work without complaint... “What? You can't come? Your maternal uncle's aunt's niece's cousin's son's grandmother died? Seven of your relatives have died in a week?!” Listening to the CEO thunder into the phone, Chi Ke wordlessly pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. See? I told you office workers were bound to go crazy sooner or later. The private doctor is no exception. The private doctor, Ji Qian, is the outstanding second son of the Ji family. He pursued his dream of becoming a doctor from childhood, and people say he's as gentle as his name suggests, just like Chi Ke's stereotypical devoted second male lead. But... When Chi Ke ran into the private doctor at the mansion's entrance at three in the morning, wearing beach shorts, flip-flops, and an old man's undershirt, he was stunned for once. He tentatively held out a hand. “Hello?” The doctor, exhausted and barely alive, shook it. “Sorry, I'm not doing well.” Chi Ke offered a polite word of comfort. “Think about the overtime pay?” The doctor straightened up and put on his white coat. “Thanks. I'll do my best.” Sure enough, only the souls of normal people can resonate with each other. The Earth can keep turning without anyone, but CEO novels can't do without an assistant and a private doctor.
