The Domineering Boss’s Assistant Refuses The Grind

Chi Ke passed away suddenly on the day he was promoted as a director, at the age of 26.

As an overworked employee tormented by his overbearing company following the ‘996’ pattern, his final thought before death was: In my next life, I must get full eight hours of sleep every night.

But then, he found himself transmigrated into a cliche melodramatic novel about a domineering CEO and his substitute lover, as the CEO’s special assistant who worked 24/7 non-stop.

Chi Ke had read this novel when he was 15, and their shared names made the experience uncomfortably real.

When the CEO called his assistant at 3 a.m. in the night, Chi Ke was so furious that his hands and feet went numb. When the CEO skipped important meetings to pursue his true love, Chi Ke’s anger flared to the point of developing mouth ulcers. And when the CEO demanded his special assistant to find a doctor who can perform a heart transplant surgery for no valid reason, Chi Ke spewed endless curses.

In short, this was a world where the rich had no brains, and only the working class suffered.

As soon as Chi Ke arrived, the CEO’s urgent call came in, like a death knell.

Chi Ke sat silently for a moment, then pulled out a copy of the Civil Code, stuffed it into his bag, and headed to the CEO’s massive 5,000-square-meter mansion.

No matter if you are a Mr. Leng, Mr. Li, Mr. Sima or any other domineering CEO just be honest and follow the damn law before pretending to be the leader of the business world.

“What? You can’t come? Your great-uncle’s aunt’s nephew’s cousin’s grandmother passed away? Seven of your relatives died in a week?!”

Hearing the CEO’s thunderous rage on the phone, Chi Ke silently adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses.

See? This is why overworked employees eventually snap—private doctors are no exception.

The private doctor, Ji Qian, the outstanding second son of the Ji family, had dreamed of becoming a doctor since childhood. Rumor has it that he is as gentle as jade, just like his name, perfectly matching Chi Ke’s stereotype of an affectionate and devoted second male lead.

However…

At 3 o’clock in the night, outside the CEO’s grand mansion, Chi Ke was stunned to find the same private doctor dressed in beach shorts, flip-flops, and a tank top.

Looking at him, Chi Ke tentatively extended his hand, “Hello?”

The doctor, looking utterly exhausted, weakly shook it and replied, “Sorry, I’m a bit unwell.”

Wanting to offer polite comfort, Chi Ke said, “Think about the overtime pay?”

Straightening up, the doctor donned his white coat and said, “Thank you, I’ll try my best.”

Indeed, only the souls of normal people can resonate with one another.

The Earth could rotate without anyone, but the Domineering CEO novels couldn’t exist without special assistants and private doctors.
