A capable assistant who drops the ball on little things × a boss who’s been driven past the point of exasperation: their love-hate story
The first time Jian Ran met Qiao Tinghe, she thought he was really strong. Heaven must have heard her thoughts and decided to make her life difficult, because Qiao Tinghe promptly became her boss.
What could she do? She’d just have to stick it out. He was paying her way too much to quit!
But who could have guessed that, the longer they worked together, the more confident and bold she’d become? In the end, the underling finally got to sing her victory song and climb all over her boss. And somehow, he seemed to enjoy it.
Bonus Scene 1:
“Jian Ran! Why is my goldfish dead too?”
“Sorry, Boss Qiao… I can explain. I really didn’t mean to kill it. Maybe I accidentally fed it too much…”
“Do you know that goldfish was worth more than you?”
“So what? It tastes no different from any other fish when braised.”
“You! You ate it too?!”
“Just kidding. I buried it with all due respect.”
Bonus Scene 2:
“Jian Ran, I’ve been watching you cover your mouth and giggle while typing all morning. Let me see what’s so funny. ‘Overbearing CEO Qiao… forced love’?! Explain yourself!”
“It’s a novel I’m writing…”
“You’re not allowed to write that anymore!”
Jian Ran blushed. “But I’m the heroine~”
“...Ahem. No slacking off. I mean, no slacking off during work hours! Show it to me at home tonight.”
Qiao Tinghe gets riled up by Jian Ran every other day. Who knew that somewhere along the way, he’d become unable to live without her?
What can he do? He spoiled her himself, so he’ll just have to keep spoiling her.
Beginning or not, madam? Not married, not together in the last chapter, even resigned and left, where is my wife?
