The domineering CEO demands a woman, and the sweet, pliant heroine is gift-wrapped and sent to his bed...
The above is pure fiction.
To build a company this large, a boss must have some extraordinary qualities. He had an exceptional memory for faces and habitually assigned "tags" to each employee for easier categorization and deployment. Upon hearing Mr. Xie specifically request Jiang Xian, Tian Zhou's first instinct was to recall the "tags" associated with her—strong professional skills, high efficiency, willing to work overtime, beautiful but dislikes schmoozing...
His second thought was: Is Jiang Xian involved in any confidential projects?
Does she control any key client resources?
Jiang Xian wasn't just some unimportant pretty face at the company. To be honest, Tian Zhou was reluctant to let her go. Letting this get out could also easily trigger a PR crisis over sexism.
His female employees weren't his private property. What right did he have to just give one away?
