Song Xiangyi came from a scholarly family. She was tall and beautiful, and she had a brilliant mind.
A senior at Stanford Graduate School of Business, she was close to graduation and spent her days grinding through internships and her nights working late on her thesis.
She never expected it to trigger a cerebral thrombosis and kill her.
The good news: she died, but not completely.
The bad news: she transmigrated into the body of a Chinese international student at MIT in the 1990s who had the same name as her.
Even worse: this student was majoring in electrical engineering, which had absolutely nothing to do with her business degree.
Song Xiangyi: Help!!! Isn’t this basically having to write two theses?!
Thankfully, Song Xiangyi still managed to graduate. Afterward, she decided to return to her old field of business.
That meant doing business and starting a company.
As it happened, the computer industry was just beginning to take off, and the world’s first computer virus had appeared, sweeping across the global internet.
Song Xiangyi thought she might as well seize the opportunity and develop firewall software to make a fortune.

Song Xiangyi had good luck in her career, and her love life was going just as smoothly.
Finance heir and businessman daddy, get~
Cool, pragmatic engineering hot nerd, get~
And then...
Dai Hefei, the cool, pragmatic engineer and her one true love, sneered. “How many more do you plan to get?”
Song Xiangyi: “No, no, no. I only eat you. The others are just a passing cloud, so don’t worry about them.”
Dai Hefei said nothing, only using his actions to seal Song Xiangyi’s lips.
“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure I’m the only one in your eyes.”

Next novel: “A Handsome Cop Is Targeted by a Pervert [Crime Investigation]”
Blurb:
Li Miuqi was not only handsome and quick-witted, but also hardworking and ambitious.
He worked hard and traveled all over the place, eventually rising from an ordinary police officer to head of the Criminal Behavior Analysis Unit.
Then Bai Shiyuan, his childhood friend whom he hadn’t seen in ten years, barged back into his life as a specially appointed criminal profiler on the team.
Bai Shiyuan had grown from a delicate-looking boy into a long-haired beauty half a head taller than him, but Li Miuqi couldn’t bring himself to be happy.
Ten years ago, they had promised to be friends for life, but Bai Shiyuan had suddenly disappeared without a word. As an adult, Li Miuqi knew friendship didn’t last forever, yet he still couldn’t let go of Bai Shiyuan breaking his promise.
So when Bai Shiyuan showed him concern, Li Miuqi brushed him off and snapped at him.
When Bai Shiyuan brought him tea and ran errands for him, Li Miuqi threw the water in his face.
When a criminal hurt Bai Shiyuan, Li Miuqi took him to the hospital, then kicked his wound, making him cry out in pain.
He thought this would let him get back at Bai Shiyuan. But one night, he had a dream.
He was back at the seaside where he and Bai Shiyuan had last met ten years ago.
But Bai Shiyuan looked as he did now, ten years later, with a gloomy gaze and not a word to say.
“Don’t move!” Li Miuqi raised his gun and shouted, “Hands up! You’re under arrest!”
Only then did Bai Shiyuan look at him and walk toward him, one step at a time.
He should have pulled the trigger, but he couldn’t. This time, he hoped Bai Shiyuan would leave without looking back, just as he had ten years ago.
Li Miuqi didn’t dare look Bai Shiyuan in the eye. He was devastated inside, but kept up a calm facade, afraid Bai Shiyuan would see through him.
But this time, Bai Shiyuan didn’t disappear without a word like he had ten years ago. Instead, he pulled Li Miuqi into a tight embrace, bit his lips, and pried open his clenched teeth.
“Li Miuqi.” He heard Bai Shiyuan call his name. “This time, I won’t leave again.”

After earning his PhD in psychology, Bai Shiyuan turned down his mentor’s offer to stay and returned home to become a criminal profiler for the Hong Kong police.
One reason was the unsolved case involving the Bai family. The other was Li Miuqi.
As a boy, Bai Shiyuan was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome and antisocial tendencies. The doctor said he perceived emotions differently from other people, and would have to spend the rest of his life undergoing psychiatric treatment in a foreign country.
He and Li Miuqi lost touch, but in countless nights abroad, Li Miuqi kept appearing in his dreams.
In the dreams, Li Miuqi had grown from a handsome young boy into a mature, handsome man.
The only thing that hadn’t changed was his amber-colored eyes.
Li Miuqi turned his head away, seemingly unable to look at him any longer.
Bai Shiyuan only chuckled, stroked Li Miuqi’s face, and kissed him,
Determined to make Li Miuqi stay by his side forever after their reunion,
Even if his methods were cruel, even if Li Miuqi came to hate him completely, he would never let him go.

Li Miuqi: What should you do if the friend you grew up with suddenly becomes a complete stranger?
Bai Shiyuan: Obviously, fuck him.
Li Miuqi: ??? That can’t be right, can it?
Li Miuqi: Wait, what are you doing? Don’t come over here! Aaaah%#@*#...

No overtime work allowed ah ah ah ah ah
Therefore, I very much support the heroine to swipe his black card and put herself in the position of being an investor.
There was no comment. It was really real that social software was exploded after the interview. Today's audience really loves to think of themselves as God, but they don't have the tolerance of God. You can sympathize with your suffering from a high position, but it is difficult to smile at the success of others, especially the opposite sex.
Why is this world line mixed with emotional lines? Some of the descriptions really feel so cliche.
Maybe it's because I always like to read Duo Jinba's articles, but I think Qi Bidai has more sexual tension [covering face and crying]
Ah ah ah ah, Goddess, I am so looking forward to this article! The writing is really good, keep it up, don't give up
But is the heroine only served twice?
Ah! What, when did Xiangyi leave his job and start his own business? Do you want to stay in this company for so long???
😂 The protagonist not only has a complicated and arduous job at work; she also has a disgusting boss who is racially sensitive and dislikes her; colleagues from well-connected households who have no contribution but still have to support her; and the prize pool continues to stack up! The protagonist's perseverance is amazing!
