In his previous life, Li Zhen died suddenly from overwork. In this life, he got in shape, worked hard to build a business with Gu Linyuan, the rich second-generation son who was his college roommate, and finally became an elite wage earner: general manager of a tech unicorn.
The work is stressful, but the money is great, and Li Zhen is very happy with his life.
That is, until his assistant transfers to a branch office and HRBP hires him a new assistant: a strangely delicate and fragile humanoid.
The humanoid claims to be someone who transmigrated after learning the plot in advance. The whole world, it says, is a novel about a harem built around a shou, and it is the shou.
Li Zhen, along with his rich second-generation roommate, now the company president Gu Linyuan, are among the many gong characters pursuing him.
“Since you’re a nobody with no background, you don’t have enough status. You’re also a workaholic, and you can’t satisfy me both physically and emotionally. In the end, you’ll not only lose your job, you’ll be kicked out of the gong harem.”
As soon as Li Zhen hears that, he slams the table and jumps to his feet: “Lose my job?!”
The humanoid mistakes this over-the-top reaction for regret, confusion, and a plea to stay.
“Don’t worry. I may be a zero, but I’m still a man, and I prefer guys with big chests and round butts.”
The humanoid gives him a knowing look, seemingly bashful, but its gaze shamelessly travels up and down Li Zhen as it speaks in a sweet, breathy voice.
“So I came to find you. I’ve read the novel, so I know you’re a bespectacled, repressed pervert who’s into everything from nipple piercings to belly-button piercings.”
Then it raises its chin haughtily. “You’re lucky. I’ll reluctantly let you be my main gong for now, but don’t fall too hard for me. In the end, I’m definitely going to marry the richest one, Gu Linyuan.”
“...” Li Zhen shudders with disgust, defeated by the humanoid’s confidence, and sits back down.
He frowns and presses the button on his desk phone. In a low voice, he says, “Get someone from security up here. Throw this troublemaking humanoid, and the idiot who hired him, out of the company.”
No one gets to take away the job he worked so hard to get. Not even with verbal slander!
Li Zhen is the gong. The couple is with the domineering CEO Gu Linyuan.
