From a young age, Tu Xiaoning had her fortune read. The fortune teller said she belonged to the fire element, which clashes with metal, but that joining the finance industry would bring her wealth, and she’d meet benefactors along the way. But after three years at the bank, her money seemed to disappear faster than it came in, so she didn’t believe it—until she met Ji Yuheng. Huh? Could this really be her benefactor?

The first time they met, her “benefactor” asked, “Aren’t you forgetting something?”
The second time, he asked again, “Just a ‘thank you’ and that’s it?”
By the nth time, Tu Xiaoning said, “Benefactor, I have nothing to repay you with except myself.”

Back in middle school, you were the top student and the school heartthrob, and I was a nobody. Now that we meet again, things are… complicated.

Ji Yuheng: “Don’t just drop by at lunchtime anymore.”
Tu Xiaoning: “Why? Afraid people will talk about you giving special treatment?”
Ji Yuheng tugged at his tie. “If you keep messing around, I’ll have to ask you to leave.”

“Boss…”
“Just stay right there, don’t come any closer.”
“Boss~”
“Speak properly.”
“Oh, then… honey, how did that lipstick taste?”
