After Midlife Layoff, I Won Over the CEO's Brother

share time: 2025-12-21 06:02:24

35-year-old Lin Wan just faced a double blow: being laid off from her mid-level job and dumped by her boyfriend. During an interview, she accidentally walked into the CEO's office, only to meet Shen Yan—the CEO's brother, crouching to pick up a cat. This free-spirited illustrator in an oversize hoodie not only helped her defuse the "wrong door" embarrassment but also handed her hot cocoa when she cried in a convenience store late at night. When she avoided him due to their "age gap," he blocked her downstairs with a sketchbook: "I’ve drawn 107 pages of you—your focus on revising plans, your tenderness feeding strays." When the CEO frowned, "She’s seven years older," Shen Yan flipped to Lin Wan’s college wedding dress manuscript: "I always knew she’s the Lin Wan who wanted to be a designer." And in this "unconventional" love, Lin Wan finally reopened her design software sealed for ten years—turns out, a midlife fall is just to catch the exclusive sweetness meant for her.
