The President's Tender Trap

On a sunny afternoon, Su Wan was busy sorting out documents in her office when she suddenly heard Lu Ming's voice from behind her: "Su Wan, I need you to revise this report."

Su Wan was startled and looked up to see him standing behind her, his face still that cold expression. She felt unhappy and thought to herself, "How dare this man order me around? I'm not his subordinate!"

"I'm very busy now, let's talk later." Su Wan responded coldly, but she was secretly thinking in her heart: "Who am I arguing with? I am obviously the victim."

Lu Ming was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't expected Su Wan to be so forceful. He frowned, thinking to himself, "Did I do something wrong?" But he wasn't about to back down. He continued, "This report is key to the project. We can't delay it."

"I know, but I need time." Su Wan tried to remain calm, but in her heart she was thinking, "He's such a workaholic. Can't he be a little more understanding of me?"

"Time is limited, we have to hurry." Lu Ming's tone was still cold, and Su Wan couldn't help feeling angry.

"You're just a robot!" Su Wan finally couldn't help but blurt out. After she finished speaking, she realized what she had said and felt a pang of regret in her heart.

"This...this isn't what I wanted to say!" She secretly regretted it, thinking, "I'm so impulsive!"

Lu Ming was stunned, his face showing surprise, but he thought to himself: "I just hope to do things better, am I wrong?" He was not angry, but felt a little helpless.

"I just hope we can get things done as soon as possible. Is that wrong?" Lu Ming tried to remain calm, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"But you are always like this, making me feel that I am not doing well enough!" Su Wan felt aggrieved and tears almost burst out.

"That's not what I meant. I just hope to get the job done more efficiently." Lu Ming's tone finally softened, as if he was trying to explain.

"Then can you try to understand how I feel?" Su Wan tried to remain calm, but she thought to herself, "I want him to know that I'm not being unreasonable."

"I will try my best to understand, but I need you to consider my opinion more." There was a hint of firmness in Lu Ming's eyes, yet he was gentle.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the office seemed to become subtle, and the distance between Su Wan and Lu Ming began to shorten.

"Maybe we should find a common solution." Su Wan finally realized that the Cold War was not the solution to the problem.

"I agree. We can try to put the problem on the table first." Lu Ming nodded, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

As the discussion deepened, Su Wan and Lu Ming gradually emerged from their cold war. They began to seriously discuss the details of the project. Although there were still small arguments, they were more understanding and supportive of each other.

"It seems that the cold war is sometimes also a way of communication." Su Wan sighed in her heart. Although the process was tortuous, she realized how important cooperation between each other is.

"The Cold War is like air conditioning in the summer. It wants to be warm, but it's freezing cold." She couldn't help but laugh, her heart full of anticipation. Every day in the future is full of infinite possibilities.

Ultimately, Su Wan and Lu Ming's tacit understanding deepened through constant interaction. Although they occasionally disagreed over the details of their work, they always worked together to solve problems at critical moments. "It seems my relationship with him is gradually improving," Su Wan secretly rejoiced, looking forward to her next collaboration with Lu Ming.

"Even aliens will one day understand and communicate." She smiled in her heart, and every day in the future was full of infinite possibilities.

Su Wan sat in a cafe, a cup of coffee in hand, her eyes wandering, her heart filled with worry. Her best friend, Lin Xiaoyu, saw through her thoughts and bluntly teased, "Oh, Su Wan, you're totally acting like a pre-relationship 'rival'! Put aside your prejudices and pursue your own happiness!"

The corners of Su Wan's mouth twitched slightly, and she thought to herself: "How can I be called a love rival? It's clearly me who is in a cold war with Lu Ming!" But she also knew that Lin Xiaoyu was right, and her emotions during this period were really not normal.

"Xiao Yu, I'm really fed up with that cold Lu Ming! He always treats me with such a condescending attitude, and I really don't know how to deal with it." Su Wan said helplessly, as if this was a stone in her heart that she could finally say out.

"Look, you're just worried about him, like a little woman." Lin Xiaoyu sipped her coffee and shook her head, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "I suggest you just take the initiative and ask him out for dinner or a drink, and chat about work and relationships."

"I don't want to look so proactive!" Su Wan retorted, but she felt that Lin Xiaoyu's words made sense. "But what if he rejects me?"

"Reject you? He wouldn't dare to do that! You are the best female employee in our company. How could you be afraid of an alien?" Lin Xiaoyu teased, with an encouraging glint in her eyes.

"But I still feel that taking the initiative always makes me look cheap." Su Wan shook her head, but in her heart she was thinking: "Should I really try?"

"Su Wan, love is a game. Who says you have to wait for others to pursue you?" Lin Xiaoyu continued, "You have to know that men sometimes need us to take the initiative, especially those like Lu Ming who are always indifferent!"

"You are really a shot of adrenaline. Although it is a bit poisonous, it is also very effective." Su Wan smiled helplessly, but her heart began to become firm.

"So, have you decided? Do you want to give yourself a chance?" Lin Xiaoyu smiled slightly, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"I want to try." Su Wan finally made up her mind, anticipation welling up in her heart, "I'll treat this as a challenge. No matter what the result is, at least I'm no longer passive."

At this moment, Lin Xiaoyu's phone rang. She looked down, and the smile on her face instantly disappeared. Her tone became serious: "Oh no, I have to go. The boss wants to see me."

"Go ahead, I'll think about it carefully." Su Wan smiled slightly, her heart full of anticipation for the future.

A few days later, Su Wan finally mustered up the courage and decided to find a suitable opportunity to talk to Lu Ming. However, opportunities were always elusive, until one afternoon, when the two of them were working overtime together, they finally ushered in this "once-in-a-lifetime" moment.

"Mr. Lu, I have something to talk to you about." Su Wan took a deep breath in the office and tried to make herself look calm.
