Confessing To An Annoying Boss

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Qiao Ziman, who never had emotional conflicts, recently encountered two troubling matters.

One was being forced by her mother to go on blind dates using 360 different methods.

The second was being troubled and harassed by a newly appointed female boss at work.

The female boss is named Chi Yin.

She has a stunning and radiant face.

Her dress is elegant and her demeanor is superb.

At work, she is efficient and decisive.

She’s a perfect example of a modern, high-quality woman who is both beautiful and capable. If only this woman didn’t keep causing trouble for her.

When the workload doubled,

When perfect drafts were ruthlessly returned with nitpicking,

When she had to work late into the night with only the lonely lamp for company.

Qiao Ziman felt desperate.

But what made her even more desperate was that her few remaining free moments were filled with blind dates arranged by her mother.

One day, after Qiao Ziman calmly finished with the last blind date—another mama’s boy—she received a call from her mother as expected.

Facing her mother’s “frenzy,” Qiao Ziman chose to “freak out” in response.

In the choice between “becoming a nun” or “succeeding,” she calmly chose “coming out.”

Qiao Ziman unexpectedly said: “I like women.”

Her mother responded surprisingly: “As long as it’s a person.”

Her mother became even more relentless, thinking about future blind date scenarios. Qiao Ziman made up a story: “I have a girlfriend, she’s wealthy, has big breasts, is my boss, has a bad temper, is a sad*st who will hit me, and I advise you not to make trouble.”

Qiao Ziman happily hung up the phone.

Turning around, she encountered the very person.

The person glanced at her own chest and then raised an eyebrow meaningfully.

Feeling extremely embarrassed, Qiao Ziman decided to give up and retorted: “Yes, that’s right, it’s you!”

After saying that, she pretended to leave calmly and gracefully.

According to online sources, after confessing to a boss, the boss would avoid the person to relieve the awkwardness.

Qiao Ziman let go of her worries.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Chi Yin called her into the office.

Chi Yin pulled out a thick stack of notebooks from her bag and solemnly introduced: “No romantic experience, owns a bar, two restaurants, three cars, four houses, and five million in savings. The house will be under both our names, and the bank card password is your birthday.”

“Emotionally stable, won’t hit people, good work schedule, and runs home after work.”

Seeing Qiao Ziman in silence, she added: “Not well-endowed, but if it doesn’t work out, we can find a solution.”

Qiao Ziman was baffled: “What does this mean?”

Suddenly, Chi Yin smiled, pure and innocent: “Aren’t you my girlfriend?”

Qiao Ziman was shocked!

Oh no! What if she really meant it?!

Going into a novel with boss/CEO/president x employee relationships always fill me with a rush and also a dire anticipation. For every novel well done, there's at least two more novels with the same trope that have fallen into the same trap, unable to break the power dynamic convincingly.

Safe to say, this novel is a good one, great even, so if you're a fan of this trope you can walk into the novel assuredly, especially if you're a fan of 'She Is The Protagonist', since some of the humour is... more>> similar and again, boss x employee.

I'll preface my thoughts with a warning on some dub-con moments for the main couple and side couple
Spoiler

(a dub-con kiss & a dub-con interc**rse for the main couple, dub-con kisses for the side couple. At least those are the ones that I caught.)

[collapse]

Going into a novel with an unequal power dynamic is always interesting, especially if they're done well. I think the author does a great job of addressing this power balance, in their own explicit and implicit ways.

Qiao Ziman perceives herself as a straight girl and when Chi Yin starts pursuing her, I appreciate that Chi Yin gives her some space to process her emotions and thoughts, because I can't imagine it's easy tocome to terms with the switch of such a fundamental part of you. Qiao Ziman is a little flighty but in the same vein, I appreciate her running away and putting some distance between them at times, because it shows that Chi Yin respects Qiao Ziman enough to let her do so, probably aware of the already unequal power dynamic,
Spoiler

especially since she was stalked once. And holy sh*t Chi Yin's mom is ****ing terrible. Who the hell brought their children's stalkers closer to them??? Also I think the author forgot that Chi Qhilan is supposed to have a husband/partner but that's okay I forgot about him as well and only remembered as I'm writing this review.

[collapse]

Similarly, the power dynamic is one again rebalanced
Spoiler

by Qiao Ziman exploring on how to "attack" Chi Yin back and also by Chi Yin eventually bowing away from managing the company.

[collapse]

You might read this review wondering why the heck do I keep going on and on about the power dynamic between the main couple but to put it simply, how would you feel if your superior who interacts with you regularly and is directly responsible for your promotion takes a liking on you, and you don't feel the same way? Would you still feel secure in your job or comfortable going to work everyday when you're being pursued by your boss?

That's why I think it's so, so important for the author to show Qiao Ziman has a voice and a say as well on how things would unfold between them. She's not being coerced into a relationship out of fear that her boss would sack her, but with both eyes open. I appreciate the author has done a pretty great job in showing this, because this dynamic usually ends up falling into the trap of a dominant CEO X weak lamb employee.

Alright, enough ranting I think. If you're interested to read it because of this, good luck, I hope you like it! Oh also the side couple is slightly angstier than the main couple but the angst is so good that I close one eye to their more unhealthy push and pull. <<less

The title should be changed. The boss wasnt the annoying one its the damn MC. She keeps running away everytime she gets mad or embarrassed. Its gets really annoying. I feel bad for the FL having to deal with her. The MC keeps getting mad at the FL and everyone around her.

My breaking point is when the MC accused the FL of lacking trust. Mf was the one purposefully making the FL worried as revenge for making her mad. Someone told FL that the MC is seeing someone. They were... more>> already in a relationship at the time and the FL is confined in the hospital, I get that the FL did smth s*upid but holy damn. If u wamt ro punish then do it outright since she deserved it at that moment, but making her get jealous when she was confined at the hospital is too damn toxic. She got the merve to get mad at FL after being questioned completely forgeting that it wss her idea to make her feel that way.

The MC is is a toxic mess, a massive red flag. I shouldve realized it sooner when she didn't even know that staying away from people that can make ger gf jealous is a thing she should do. I just brushed it off at first, but after repeatedly seeing her use the fl's care abt her well being amd their relationship for her revenge when the she gets mad at the FL is too much. She does it over and over again. Its either she runs away or she tries to make the FL worry. What in the f*ck, ive never seen such a toxic character. I still had hope she'll learn to properly be a gf, but I cant stand her bs anymore so im dropping this novel.

It had great potential but the toxicity of the MC is way to strong for me.

Edit: The MC is giving the same vibes as those s*um women that gets left behind in rebirth novels. <<less

I've been waiting for a story like this all my life to read it! As one of the greats said, "Art is when there is nothing superfluous", so this novel doesn't have: reincarnations, systems, dragons, second couples, evil heroes (well, almost), the idea of ​​revenge and power, ABO, the end of the world. What is there? What to write about? About ordinary people, so much so that your cheekbones ache from laughter) It's funny, a little sad, but the heroines turned out to be alive, not cardboard, not with forced... more>> emotions and sighs every other line, but real.

Now I'll finish reading what there is and go for a second round to savor the details in the description. It's practically a play, and all the flavor is in the dialogues.

Some say: Give the novel a chance, read the first 20 chapters - I won't say that. One chapter. I needed only one chapter to fall in love.

When the truck-san appeared, it was the best cameo) <<less

This dynamic is actually pretty amusing, one of the top novels I've read where the MC gets played like a fiddle by the love interest when it comes to reeling in a wife lol

Like the other comment said this just simple normal modern-day romance, hitting more of the romantic comedy angle. Sometimes I have to pause because just like those genres someone has to be a bit slow and that's definitely the MC
