Sheng Shao You, a former assassin, has left his lethal past behind to reinvent himself as the CEO of a thriving company. Known as a business powerhouse, everything seems to go exactly as he plans. However, the shadows of his past still linger, threatening to unravel the life he has so carefully built. Hua Yong, the heir of a vast multinational conglomerate, appears to have it all-wealth, power, and influence. Yet beneath his polished exterior lies a burning desire for revenge over his late parents' deaths, a quest that could uncover long-buried secrets about his family's past. When he learns that Sheng Shao You is somehow tied to the events of his past, he finds himself torn between his thirst for vengeance and an undeniable attraction to the enigmatic CEO. '' Are you sure your company is the best at this?" Sheng Shao You could barely tolerate the person in front of him. His hand itched to grab a knife and slash his throat, but he stayed silent, taking the documents from his hand. ''I'll take full responsibility for the mistake. If you wish, we can discuss the cost together'' Sheng Shao You said evenly, his tone calm but firm. He stepped slightly closer, closing the distance just enough to be noticed, but not enough to challenge. "There's another way you can cover the damages" Hua Yong said, leaning forward, so the shadow of his face fell across Sheng's documents like a curtain. His tone lowered, sharp as a knife. -Then how can I repay you for the damages? His eyes were filled with determination, ready to do whatever it took to protect his company's reputation from being destroyed. -☆Shine21
