Three things make a wage slave happiest.

A little cash in their pocket.

A boss who can communicate and is willing to communicate.

An easy job with plenty of time to slack off.

Too bad Su Yao provoked the one person he should never have messed with on his very first day at work.

After that, his pockets were emptier than his face was clean.

Every day, someone drenched him in verbal venom until he was drunk on it.

He was more exhausted than a spinning top.

1. Anyone familiar with the fashion world knows Shen Huiqiu.

An internationally renowned designer, he suddenly returned to China at the height of his career and went off to teach at a second-rate college.

He was handsome, rich, and had a bright future. The only problem was his terrible personality. Even with a face beautiful enough to ruin a kingdom, nobody dared lay a finger on him.

Then one day, a wedding ring suddenly appeared on Dean Shen's left ring finger.

Everyone went wild, speculating about which girl was reckless enough to claim Shen Huiqiu for herself.

Until one day, someone saw Dean Shen strolling by the lake with his young assistant.

The young assistant chattered away.

The man furrowed his brow.

Everyone couldn't help feeling worried for the assistant. Everyone knew Dean Shen hated noise.

The next second, the man who hated noise suddenly turned around and kissed the young assistant on the lips.

The young assistant flailed about, and the matching wedding ring on his left ring finger nearly blinded everyone in the sunlight.

2. Newly married Su Yao was still getting used to his direct superior suddenly becoming his husband, so he laid down three rules with his new spouse.

They would keep their relationship private for now.

No personal conversations during work hours.

No using work as an excuse to get jealous.

One Christmas, Su Yao received a gift from a male coworker.

He turned around to find his man walking by, glancing sidelong at him.

Feeling guilty, Su Yao said, "Dean Shen, remember our three rules."

The man sneered. "Five minutes left."

Su Yao looked completely baffled.

Five minutes later, a similarly baffled male coworker was hauled into Dean Shen's office. "I hear you've been coveting my wife?"

Su Yao pulled out their three rules. "Dean Shen, that's against the rules."

But the man pulled him into his arms. "As luck would have it, it's quitting time now, Mrs. Shen."

Theme: Wait patiently for the flowers to bloom, and their fragrance will come in time.
