This novel is about low ranking staff Shan Shan being oppressed by the Big Boss. She keeps fighting but keeps losing. So she finally stopped struggling and obediently surrendered…

Shan Shan, extremely docile, waited outside the delivery room at the temporary blood bank. At the same time, the big boss sent her away to do a blood test to ensure she was of good health and suitable blood type.

Sure enough, the pregnant woman was in a critical condition. Thus, Shan Shan obediently let 300 cc of her blood being pumped. The condition of the pregnant woman improved. Shan Shan received many thanks, left the hospital and lamented this while looking at the moon:

“Capitalists really are blood-suckers, heartless, heartless.”

Shan Shan, who is deep in thought, did not notice a black limousine has stopped behind her. The man at the back seat heard her sigh, moved his mouth and then closed the recently opened window.

“Drive home.”

“Boss, didn’t you just say you want to send Miss Xue back?”

“No need,” the man said without expression, “capitalists are heartless.”

Since I enjoyed the other story from the same universe I was a bit skeptic about this one but it lived up to expectations. If I had known what I know now, I would choose to read this first before the other book (A Slight Smile...) so some of the extras from that side would feel more familiar.

The story itself is mild and cheeky with a hint of deviousness. 'Adorable' keeps popping on my mind all throughout the journey. Since the length and pace is average, this is a good... more>> filler just to hit some good soft spots. The fluffy clouds were flying all over the place so this reader thinks this is a good bedtime story.",) <<less

A very good light novel. Super light with no extras happenings. Mainly revolved to shan shan's lovelife. Even though the "original ending" (as the author says) is really a cliffhanger, the epilogues (which contain 8 epilogues) is really satisfying. But I want shan shan to call even once Feng Teng by his name in the novel and not just 'Boss' or 'President'. I dont know why but I think I just feel distant when only shan shan calls him that. So yeah. A really good light novel.

Thanks to the author... more>> and translator for this novel. ?? <<less

It’s a cute and sweet story but difficult to review since it doesn’t leave much of an impression after reading, but I did enjoy it while reading.

As mrezman mentioned, it is similar to Wipe Clean After Eating and other boss-subordinate romcoms which relies on the misunderstanding and disparity of positions between the two leads, although where WCAE structures its jokes like a skit, whereas Shan Shan is more of a sitcom. I found the beginning to be a little weak, forcing the development of their relationship but it’s hard to... more>> believe either of them had romantic inclinations at that point. The male lead was also somewhat dry and tedious at first (well actually he’s being sly and up to his usual tricks, it just wasn’t as entertaining). It improved later on with better character development and a more stable relationship than WCAE. <<less

It's okay. I didn't exactly buy that the president suddenly started liking her, but it's still cute. I feel that's it's a not-as-good version of "Wipe Clean After Eating, " just from my personal preference.

Read it and truly do not understand the relationship between the two leads at all. I know it's slice of life romance but it doesn't really feel like they're in a romantic relationship.

The MC has a rare blood type which has led to her going to donate blood for the ML's pregnant sister. From then on, she is "wooed" by the ML. The ML is the typical domineering CEO type but he also doesn't really explain things to the MC. However, it's not like she really trusts in their relationship... more>> until over halfway through the story. Then they move at lightning speed (even for a short novel) as he's pretty much fallen in love with her at first sight.

Neither of them acts like a rational person in this. But I suppose this novel is like wish fulfillment for a regular office worker attracting the attention of a CEO and not having any extremely terrible things impact their lives.

Spoiler

I mean, there was the incident with the train tickets (which had surprisingly little consequences), her grandfather ending up in the hospital (which made her reevaluate their relationship) and the food that raised her HCG levels which made them think she was pregnant (which did help them push towards marriage). But all of those were so quickly solved that they might as well not have been written.

[collapse]

The writing style is also a little strange. I don't know if this is because it was translated but it feels robotic. Emotional moments lack the punch needed to drive home what they need to (like the ML's turmoil over the MC's indecision about their relationship).

It's good if you're looking for a short read but there isn't anything remarkable about this story. <<less

Didn't live up to the high rating. The whole time I read this it was just... dull. I didn't feel it was cute, or funny, anything. I was just basically reading it waiting for something that made it have a high rating but until the end, theres none.

MC is dull, oblivious (bluntly: just an id*ot) , ditzy. Every individual has their own strong point but Idk why the author didn't show any strong point of the MC.

Meanwhile, ML is the overused, overbearing tsundere president who doesn't have a single clue... more>> how to court. Fortunately ML's FL is an id*ot who goes with whatever he wants or else it's just really bad taste.

As a romance novel, it didn't really feel romantic at all. ML fell in love with MC cause she called him an evil bloodsucking capitalist after their first meeting. MC got Stockholm syndrome. It ended before any decent confession or romance starts and readers just get fed with tidbits to save time from thinking about complete and actually romantic storyline. <<less

This is a classic story about a domineering CEO/ML and a submissive FL. Honestly, the plot itself was quite boring, maybe because I already read so many novel with more interesting stories and characters. But this is quite good for a light read because the story didn't require you to think much. And there's also the drama version.

Cute story Haha. The MC and ML make a cute couple, especially how the ML regards the MC as. White rabbit, easy to bully and eat (which is so cute!)

There are no heavy plots, no love triangle and the drama isnt much. It's a relaxing story with no reincarnation, rebirth or transmigration - just a modern romance story with only lil chapters but fulfilling needs.

I love how the MC acknowledged all her faults and short comings. She isn't Mary sue and also wasn't badass, her character is just like... more>> a 3D person any one can find around. It's too cute. <<less

this is truly the genre that is my guilty pleasure.... so s*upid yet so cute.... this one is good because the female lead is s*upid but her brain works in a direction that the boss (and me also) cannot follow so it’s funny to hear her internal monologues... very unexpected sometimes

There are a lot of grammatical mistakes in this one but it is totally worth reading. It is cute and short enough that it is enjoyable. The MC is dense, and I mean really dense but it somehow endeared her to me instead. Idk. Like I liked it, y'KNOW?

Cute, lovely and great read. The MC was great, she was a fully developed character whose journey we got to follow during a formative moment in her life. The story was pretty fluffy but not without some meat on its bones. Would definitely recommend! Also as a bonus - I thought the drama version were great (which is rare). The first time I watched it I laughed out loud. Shan Shan is such a cutiepie, and the ML is a perfect match for her.

Thank you for translating this novel :)

This story's a typical boss and employee love story.
The cold and cunning boss is intrigued by a naive newbie employee.
Who knows a simple kindness could bring them together?

... more>>
Spoiler

The Boss, Feng Teng, is a very competitive person and he feel satisfaction for "bullying" his naive employee a.k.a the female protagonist, Shan Shan with food.

.
I read "A Slight Smile is Very Charming" novel first. So when I read this novel, I'm a bit annoyed with how timid and naive the female protagonist, Shan Shan, is.

.

Thank goodness the Author made Shan Shan a bit wiser in the end.
Shan Shan tried to be more focus on her career so she won't embarrass Feng Teng in the future. Keynote: tried. At least, she tried to be a better person for Feng Teng.

After finished reading this novel, I wonder if the title is supposed to be "Come and Eat, Shan Shan" or "Come and Eat Shan Shan."

Both of them are suitable titles for this novel, me think ;D

[collapse]

I'd say that I'm happy I don't give up reading this novel early. This novel is pretty good.
.
Personally, I prefer the witty couple, Xiao Nai and Bei Wei Wei, from "A Slight Smile is Very Charming" novel than Feng Teng and Shan Shan couple here.
.
But for a couple with huge gap of personality and status, I think Feng Teng and Shan Shan make a pretty cute couple too.
.
.

No spoiler, just me babling.

Spoiler

Things that happened in this novel is very unlikely to happen in real world.

In real world, even if somehow a low ranking newbie employee help their big boss, their interaction will be stop after the big boss reward them. Then life continues back like normal.

You could say that this novel could make any ordinary female to dream high, wondering when their big boss will ask them a marriage proposal... when in reality their only interaction are at most just greetings to each other. Lol.

[collapse]

After reading this novel, don't forget to read "A Slight Smile is Very Charming" novel, translated wonderfully by the same translators of this novel. There're more side stories about Shan Shan family interaction with Wei Wei family. Enjoy! <<less
