When they first meet, Shi Zheng disguises herself and an intern as mother and daughter, posing as clients to sneak into a rival company and investigate its proposal. Right in front of Jiang Jian, she boldly recommends herself: “This company is so-so. Let me introduce you to Tong Shang's designer, Shi Zheng!”
The second time they meet, Jiang Jian decides to poach Shi Zheng without hesitation, only to discover that she's treating him as a stepping stone to revive her studio?
The third time they meet, Shi Zheng is swept up into someone's arms, because he absolutely refuses to become a suspect in a late-night disappearance case!
The fourth time they meet, Jiang Jian has fallen from the lofty status of a client's big shot to a professional driver. “I just want to be a cold-hearted passerby!”
This novel is also known as “The Daily Bickering of Two Chicks Who Think They Can Keep Each Other in Line.”

[Literary synopsis]
I have seen lamentation brought to an end and heard laughter fall silent. The mortal world seems like a mire, and time like a broken wall, yet I still wish, like an ant, to gaze upon the world with reverence.
With fervent devotion, I write my wildest dreams. Through art, I give form to an age.
Let the petty tyrants have their day. I can still ask myself with a clear conscience: have I done wrong?
[Bonus scene]
“If you had two lives, what would you do?”
“One is enough. I wish I could have met her sooner and become a sculptor who escaped grief and despair, so that those long, burning years could each possess a will and soul of their own.”
