It's been over half a year since Lian Yupeng quit, yet she still gets annoying messages from her former boss.
"A-Lian, where did you put the files?"
"A-Lian, do you remember the password for the media account?"
"A-Lian, could you send me the messages from when we were communicating with the client?"
Unable to take it anymore, Lian Yupeng angrily typed out an unhinged message:
"Dear Director Wen, to be honest, I've had a crush on you for ages. Every time I get a notification from you, my heart flutters like a deer, only for you to send me some trivial work stuff! Hey! Could you please stop messing with my head? I quit, I quit, I quit because I wanted to get away from you and stop stressing myself out, so please stop using these pointless messages to tease my poor little heart, okay?!"
Who knew her meltdown of a text would be taken seriously? Her boss, usually so refined and aloof, took a high-speed train overnight to the seaside town where she was vacationing. Leaning half against the doorframe, eyes hazy with drink, she murmured softly, "I don't know why I'm here, but I just came."

Wen Zicun had made her way from a small mountain village to a big city, taking every step with care until she found her footing in bustling Yuncheng.
She had always known how to rein in her desires, pouring all her energy into studying and work, with no sign of ever waking up to romance.
The only time her heart had stirred was for that excessively bright and flamboyant junior colleague.
Only after Lian Yupeng quit did Wen Zicun finally work up the courage to contact her. She couldn't find a suitable excuse, so she resorted to talking about work.
Who would have thought that one message would earn her a resentful yet "blunt and passionate" confession?
Wen Zicun thought her secret crush had finally been returned, never realizing the message was just a joke of a meltdown.

Love grew wildly, and when the lie came to light, Wen Zicun realized the whole story had begun with an absurd joke.
"I was just imagining things, thinking you liked me."
"Don't worry, I won't bother you again. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."
