20 parts Complete Lingling is everything a finance department dreams of - efficient, poised, and emotionally impenetrable. Feared by her subordinates and admired by her peers, she thrives in perfection and silence. Love? That's an unnecessary risk she's never budgeted for.
Orm is warm, curious, and just a little chaotic - the kind of analyst who asks too many questions, laughs too easily, and sees things others don't. Especially the loneliness behind Lingling's carefully controlled eyes.
What begins as quiet observation turns into unexpected conversations, stolen glances, and a bond that threatens to shatter every rule Lingling has lived by. But love doesn't wait for permission. It grows - in break rooms, in crisis, and in quiet moments shared after hours.
As office politics flare and personal ghosts resurface, Lingling must face the truth she's long buried: the greatest risk isn't falling in love - it's never letting yourself.
A slow-burn GL romance about vulnerability, ambition, and finding home in the most unexpected places.
