After that night, Xianyin started inviting me out more often—to art exhibits, concerts, even her colleagues’ weddings. I knew she liked me, but I wasn’t sure about my own feelings. She resembled Lixue so much that I worried my attraction was just a projection. I told her honestly, asking for time to sort out my feelings. She looked disappointed. “I understand.” After that, she stopped contacting me. I missed her daily messages, her cheerful updates. The silence left me feeling…-

Sensing something was wrong, I took her to the parking garage. As I buckled her seatbelt, she pulled me close, her body pressed against mine, eyes serious. “Let’s give it a try,” she said. I blushed. “Try what?” “Marriage,” she replied. I hesitated, but she kissed me—awkward, but passionate. When she finally collapsed in my arms, breathless, I was still reeling. She said she thought she’d fallen in love with me. After confirming her feelings, we told our families.…

Elena returned to the office at 10:00 AM. She looked exhausted—dark circles under her eyes, her hair pulled back in a hasty ponytail. But her spine was straight, and her gaze was steady. Julian met her in the lobby. "We need to talk," he said. "No. We need to work." She walked past him toward the elevator. "You can explain yourself after you've fixed the mess you helped create." "I didn't—" "You let me fall for you. And all of it was a lie." "Not all of it." "Enough of it." The elevator…-

The third time the emcee called for the bride to enter, the aisle at the end of the red carpet remained empty. The guests started to fidget, whispers rippling through the room, while I stood on stage, mortified. Clenching my fists, I stared straight ahead. “Yao Lixue, what kind of stunt are you pulling this time?” Suddenly, someone shouted, “The bride just made an announcement on her Moments!” Phones came out in a flash. Moments later, everyone was staring at me with pity in their…

The recess lasted one hour. By the time the board reconvened, Stern had recovered his composure. He denied everything, called the evidence "manufactured," and demanded an independent investigation. But the damage was done. The board voted not to terminate Elena. Instead, they authorized a full audit of the Sales division. Stern left the meeting without speaking to anyone. Elena returned to her office with Jay close behind. She closed the door. "Explain," she said. "Explain what?" "How you got that…

The special board meeting was scheduled for 9:00 AM. Elena arrived at 8:00. She found Jay already at his desk, working furiously on his laptop. "What are you doing?" she asked. "Building a case. If Stern wants a fight, we'll give him one." "The board is going to vote to fire me, Jay. There's no case that can stop that." "Watch me." She wanted to argue. But there was something in his face—a determination, a confidence—that made her stop. "Okay," she said. "What do you need?" "Your presentation…

Chapter 14: The Unofficial Date
The jazz bar was called Blue Note, and it was the kind of place that seemed to exist outside of time. Dark wood, low ceilings, a stage that had hosted legends. The music was quiet enough to talk over but loud enough to fill the silences. Elena hadn't planned to come here. She had left work at nine, intending to go straight home, but her feet had carried her in a different direction. And when she walked through the door and saw Jay sitting at the bar, alone, nursing a whiskey, she almost turned…-

CEO-syndrome-Chapter-01
Every time I go for a job interview, the company’s HR tells me there’s something wrong with me. But honestly, I don’t see it. After being mysteriously fired four times in a row, I’m now at my fifth company. The moment I walk in, I head straight for the executive lounge. A man with gold-rimmed glasses is sitting there. Probably HR. He looks up, startled. I march over, plop myself down on the plush sofa, and frown. “Where’s my tea?” “Uh...right away, ma’am” The…-
