Also known as: The Younger Man I Dumped Became My Boss | Younger Man | Seduce and Run | Office Romance

Cheerful, flirtatious older woman with girlish charm x cold, sharp-tongued young wolf

In her fifth year at the company, Shen Mengqing was planning to resign and return to her hometown.

But before she did, she needed to deal with someone first.

She'd met Yu Xin by chance half a year ago.

It was a rainy day, and Yu Xin was standing with her under the same eaves.

The man's features were sharp, his looks exceptional. A hint of rain clung to him as he glanced at her.

That one glance bewitched Shen Mengqing, and she made the first move.

They both knew theirs was nothing more than a casual relationship, not love.

-

The day before she submitted her resignation, Shen Mengqing proposed ending their brief and absurd relationship, and Yu Xin agreed.

But the next day, an heir to the company suddenly appeared and took over as CEO.

HR told Shen Mengqing that her new boss had rejected her resignation.

In a moment of impulse, Shen Mengqing stormed into the CEO's office to demand an explanation.

A stern, distinguished man in a suit sat in the chair, holding her resignation letter.

Great. She'd just seen that face yesterday.

Who else could it be but Yu Xin, the man she'd just dumped?

-

Before long, news that Shen Mengqing had become Yu Xin's secretary set the company abuzz, stirring up another round of office intrigue.

Colleague A sneered that Shen Mengqing was just struggling in vain and would soon be forced to resign anyway.

Colleague B mocked her for wishfully dreaming of climbing into the heir's bed.

But later, the two began making frequent appearances together at banquets and formal dinners.

After one such event, someone saw the famously cold and heartless heir personally carry his secretary to a luxury car, then kneel to take off her high heels.

Yu Xin gazed at her tenderly, massaging Shen Mengqing's aching calves as he gently asked, "Are you tired?"

Behind them stood colleagues A, B, C, and D, their faces red from being proven wrong: ??!!!

Song Yao first met Zhao Lulan at a gathering hosted by her boyfriend.

She was still in college then, dressed like a well-behaved student, but her strikingly beautiful features stood out, and her foxlike eyes were especially alluring.

Zhao Lulan raised his head through the swirling smoke, his captivating eyes falling coldly on Song Yao.

The friend sitting beside him turned and asked in a low voice:

"What, you like her type?"

"No." Zhao Lulan shrugged. "Too well-behaved."

The friend studied Song Yao's face for a long moment and decided Zhao Lulan was blind.

No one but him would think Song Yao looked well-behaved.

-

Years later, in the second month after Song Yao returned to China after graduating, she married Zhao Lulan.

Zhao Lulan came from a distinguished family, had a successful career, and was exceptionally handsome. He had a sterling reputation for keeping his distance from women and being cool and desireless.

Most of all, she'd heard he didn't like her type.

Song Yao was at ease entering a marriage of convenience with someone like him.

After the wedding, Zhao Lulan behaved exactly as she'd imagined. He followed every rule, held himself to the strictest standards, and always kept a safe distance.

Until her ex showed up at the tea plantation she owned, and Zhao Lulan happened to be there too.

The moment she and her ex locked eyes, Zhao Lulan took her hand and pulled her to his side, casually wrapping an arm around her waist.

He bent toward her, his thin lips almost brushing her ear, and said with a dark look in his eyes:

"Don't look at other men."

-

Before long, Song Yao began thinking about divorce.

She felt that the balance she'd maintained with Zhao Lulan had been broken.

He would hold her hand tightly in front of others, kiss her cheek, and hug her without letting go.

It made her feel insecure.

Who could have guessed that on the day they signed the divorce agreement, they would do something dangerous that the agreement explicitly forbade?

When Song Yao woke the next morning, she regretted it deeply.

"Since I was the one who broke the agreement, let's sign the divorce papers now."
