On the night of Jingzhe, gossip spread through Lingcheng's upper circles: the second son of the Chong family had disappeared. The social elite were quick to offer their opinions.

"He probably doesn't want to honor the engagement, so he's resorted to this low-down trick."

"Exactly. The Jiang family is a hopeless mess. Marrying into a family with no connections is a joke."

"I wouldn't be so sure. I've met that girl from the Jiang family. She's sweet and honest, and works under the second son's older brother. Given the eldest son's character, he'd never let his family break its word."

"What, you think his big brother will stand up for her?"

Whether Chong Ji stood up for her or not, he didn't know. All he knew was that on the second night after his younger brother vanished, his honest sister-in-law appeared in his room.

After that, he broke his principles and transferred her to another position, even though he knew it violated the rules for employee promotions. He also bid 32 million for an antique cup, just to compensate her for the cup he'd accidentally broken while kissing her.

Please note:

1. Both leads are virgins. Sweet romance. Five-year age gap.

2. The broken engagement goes like this: you break up with me, I break up with him, and he breaks up with her.

New novel: Love Blooms Toward the Sun

The third Intelligent Robot Sports Competition came to a close, with Jin Yanzhi leading Dongshen Technology to the top once again. The media praised him in their usual flowery language: "Adding yet another flourish to an already perfect resume."

Without a doubt, he came from a distinguished family, graduated from a top university, founded his own company, and held several core patents. He was also handsome, and even his personality resembled the robots he created: cold, efficient, and intolerant of mistakes.

But even the most perfect resume has a blemish. Rumor had it that Jin Yanzhi's partner was a twenty-year-old woman who had dropped out of school early.

One person delivered a scathing verdict: "The god on the mountaintop, brought down by a girl with dyed hair."

-

On the third day of their marriage, the "girl with dyed hair," Jiang Shiyi, started working at Jin Yanzhi's company.

After nightfall, she carried a fruit basket as a gift, changed into the most formal employee uniform in her wardrobe, and knocked on the master bedroom door.

In the brightly lit room, the young woman's curvaceous figure was cinched into a fitted pencil skirt, her waist slender enough to fit in his hands. Jin Yanzhi sat alone by the bed, looking at her more coldly than a stranger on the street.

"Can I put you down as my emergency contact on the company's new employee form?"

"You know I don't have a mother or father anymore, and Fang Songke is only five. I..."

"No." His voice echoed off the metal walls. Jin Yanzhi heard himself reply, "You were the one who deceived me first. Besides, this isn't covered in our agreement."
