Zhu Yunrong firmly believes:
Love yourself, and life will be brilliant. Love a man, and you'll end up like Wang Baochuan.
But that doesn't stop her from liking handsome men.
She likes them no differently from how she likes houses, cars, gold, and diamonds. They're all just accessories to her glamorous life, things to show off when she goes out.
Zhu Yunrong knows how shallow she is, but has never considered changing.
Until... her vanity betrays her.
Her rich playboy boyfriend cheats on her with her direct superior, and she has to endure her coworkers' snide remarks and her boss's harassment.
The workplace is a cesspit. After making a scene, she packs up and quits. Life is hard enough without putting up with idiots.
After this ordeal, she takes a long, hard look at her vanity and resolves to kick the habit.
Zhu Yunrong chooses a declining large company as a stepping stone.
A month later, the new CEO finally arrives, and turns out to be someone she half knows.
-
Zou Yiheng started interning at Pride Finance during his senior year of college. In five years, he completed countless projects and became an undisputed financial genius, only to be betrayed by a trusted subordinate and suffer a humiliating downfall.
Faced with the company's demotion order, Zou Yiheng simply smiles, politely quits, and walks away.
Hongya Group was once one of the three giants of the financial industry, but now faces the threat of bankruptcy.
A challenge and an opportunity, Zou Yiheng signs a high-stakes wager agreement and arrives just in time to take the helm.
Among the company's sullen, yawning "leeches," he immediately spots the haughty "fighting cock" from his student days, whose chin was always tipped up.
"What a coincidence, Zhu Yunrong."
Out of respect for their status as adults, Zou Yiheng greets her with a smile, ready to let bygones be bygones.
Miss Fighting Cock raises her sleep-heavy eyelids after a night of studying and perks right up when she sees him.
Hah, the fallen-phoenix race is on. She can't lose to anyone!

Zhu Yunrong gradually senses trouble. Her dormant vanity has started acting up again, and it's showing in the following ways:
She likes walking beside Zou Yiheng more and more. It must be because his face looks so expensive, like a fine ornament.
She thinks the air is more fragrant wherever he is. It must be because rich elites like him are soaked in the scent of money!
The longer they spend together, the worse her vanity gets. She's deteriorating by the day.
Remembering her vow to reform, Zhu Yunrong starts trying the out-of-sight, out-of-mind approach.
But some people have no self-awareness at all.
One moment, he "accidentally" reveals his abs, testing her willpower.
The next, he "unintentionally" engineers a moment alone together. Her desperate struggle against her vanity makes her heart race and her blood run hot.
Zhu Yunrong finally can't take it anymore. "Zou Yiheng, could you stop being so damn seductive?!"
Zou Yiheng: "."
Can someone tell him why trying harder to pursue someone only makes him look funnier?
Theme: Love leads vanity out of the darkness.
Followed all the way to the end. Speaking of which, I have started to open my own book, but I found that the characters have their own direction. My original assumption was that the heroine would become more and more happy when we got along, and she would tend to be more brainless. Anyway, it is fun to produce food for yourself, but as the plot progresses, I found that if I were to take my place, the heroine would only feel confused and resentful. I think this is also an interesting point. It depends on whether it can be contained later. Overall, I still hope for HE.
Haha Zou in this chapter is so cute
Thank you to the author for reading your experience. I was also touched. In fact, I also want to write haha, because I love to read, but sometimes I can't find what I want to read, and I want to produce my own food. But time is indeed an issue. There is no clear working time for social animals.
Haha, of course he is not embarrassed, he wishes everyone would misunderstand
If you like this version, don't miss it. It's certainly better to stay sweet than to get back together again.
I went to Inner Mongolia. Have a nice vacation.
Jianjian is really kind, she really stands up for herself when needed, and the matter has nothing to do with her, she is really just volunteering to help.
The heroine is so sassy, she cheers up so quickly even if her career and relationship are both damaged.
They all think about each other.
Fortunately, they persisted
