Sheng Qianyuan had known since childhood that he was freakishly strong.
At five, he snapped an iron spoon in half. At seven, he smashed tables and chairs. At nine, he uprooted the big tree outside the orphanage. At eleven, he hurled a shot put straight through the wall of the principal's office during the school sports meet.
After a turbulent childhood of causing trouble, Sheng Qianyuan finally graduated from college. On his birthday, he made a wish: to live the rest of his life as an unremarkable, ordinary person.
His wish came true when he landed a job at a physical therapy company and got the life he'd once dreamed of.
A cozy life, an easy job, friendly coworkers. Every morning when he arrived at work, even the printer by the door greeted him.
Then one day, a gang of knife-wielding robbers suddenly barged into the company, intent on hurting people and stealing their money.
In the chaos, Sheng Qianyuan was about to call the police when he turned around and saw that all his coworkers in the office had turned into... animals?
Rabbits, hedgehogs, turtles... Monsters filled the room, speaking human language and screaming as they ran wild. Sheng Qianyuan stared at them in shock.
As for the printer... it sprouted legs and ran away.
Sheng Qianyuan: "..."
He must have opened his eyes the wrong way this morning.
After a moment's hesitation, he looked at the robber still waving his knife, then down at his own fists and thought about how strong he was.
He fell silent for a long moment, then slowly rolled up his sleeves.
...It seemed he'd suddenly found the meaning of life.
.
The supernatural community in the capital had recently been flooded with a piece of news.
Word was that a new director had taken over the long-vacant position at the Bureau of Non-Natural Affairs, and he was still just a young kid.
As the bureau's performance continued to hit new records, the Snake Clan, one of the major powers in the demon world, grew uneasy. They ordered She Muqing, the clan's most successful member in the human world, to go undercover and investigate the new director.
After finishing his onboarding paperwork, the billionaire She Muqing successfully became a director's assistant earning two thousand a month.
On his first day at work, he was incredibly lucky to be taken along on an official assignment.
He'd heard that the mysterious director was calm and collected, extremely cautious, and never used his special abilities in public. Every last detail was supposedly airtight.
As She Muqing's mind raced, trying to figure out what special trick the director would use to subdue the monster, the man calmly stepped forward and raised his arm high.
The next second, the Refrigerator Ghost, who had just been acting so arrogant, was slapped so hard that half its door came off.
She Muqing: "..."
Reading guide:
1. A goofy director shou with nothing but brute strength and a terrifying lack of money × a tsundere, innocent gong with nothing but money and a willingness to do all the work
2. The gong often talks tough and is occasionally sharp-tongued. The shou is often a little scatterbrained and occasionally serious.
3. A sweet, funny story with a serious side! Both are virgins, each other's one and only, and devoted to each other! No angst or tearjerkers!
4. More to come
