Getting Outsmarted By The CEO

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Ruan An An, who came from a family that had tens of billions worth in net value, returned to her alma mater to donate a building but fell in love with a college student there.

The boy wore a brilliant white shirt. His figure was slender and tall. With black hair, light-colored pupils, and a beautiful jawline, he looked incredibly handsome.

Ruan An An was dazzled by his charm when the two bumped into each other. The college student picked up the file Ruan An An had dropped on the ground and smiled: “Fellow student, watch your step.”

His voice sounded as clear as spring water and the person was as handsome as jade.

For the first time in her life, Ruan An An was in love.

She created an opportunity for herself by changing her identity.

As the story goes, a sweet girl with financial difficulty who constantly strived for self-improvement quickly fell in love with another poor yet handsome male college student. The two were in tune with each other in all aspects and got married in just half a year.

Although they were hard-pressed for money even after marriage, it did not affect their relationship.

On the night before their wedding anniversary, Ruan An An was dressed in one of her exquisite skirts at work, as usual, to attend a private meeting to meet the so-called behind-the-scenes major shareholder.

“Ms. Ruan,” the secretary introduced: “This is Gu Jue, Mr. Gu.”

Ruan An An stared at the man with whom she shared the same pillow in a 100 square meter apartment every night. He was impeccably attired, looking very sharp and honorable.

…She almost broke her high heels.

“An An,” He said as a warm smile melted into his face like snow: “Let us move to Lin Jiang Mansion, I have built a garden for you.”

Ruan An An: “…”

Damn you, the poor and handsome college student! It was all a set up!

So far I have read 17 chapters (most likely they are split up, so I read about 5-7 chapters). Very light storytelling flow. I have a great desire to read mtl, but at the moment I am in control. In any case, if you want to read an easy story without tragedy and other sadness, then this is the story for you.

This novel just like my girlfriend is the cutest in the world which is boring. The concept was good and interesting, the description was the one who hooke me in, but the story just so so. I couldn't read any further bc how boring it was. Ugh maybe this isn't my cup of tea.

The story is a 4.2 maybe? A 3.8? It's good for a casual read. The FL has always rejected those who tried to court her for years, but when she saw ML's perky ass she fell in love. Like WTF? Sometimes it just feels like FL is a pe*vert who's after the ML's ass. That felt disgusting just saying it but it's true. She fell in love as soon as she saw the ML. She stopped eating chocolates after her mom's death, like when she was a child. But when... more>> the ML gave her candy she eats it. Like what? This is Ultra Level Simping.
Still it's fun to read, you just need to turn off your common sense and your standards and enjoy the novel. <<less

This is perhaps not most realistic novel but if you are looking for something fluffy then it's definitely best for you.

Author has somehow managed to make this novel super cute.

I was rooting for MC and ML whole novel.

Sweetest novel I've ever read. There's no dog blood drama. It's all fluff... fluff...

... more>>
Spoiler

The romance progress between the leads is a bit fast but satisfying enough. The most important thing is, there's no third party. And the ML chase away all his admirers by feeding dog foods like- I've girlfriend, I'm married, my girlfriend is so beautiful etc.. lmao

What's the most funny thing is, ML disguised as a girl and asked about relationships advice from a forum for girls??lol 😂😂😂 He wanted to know how FL feels. So sweet.

Most of the steps are taken by ML. He's the most ideal bf, I told u😂

Luv the relationship between the FL and her two best friends. Oh ML also has his own gang. They both loves to feed dog foods to the poor single dogs.

[collapse]

How I wish to read novels like this. T_T Most heartwarming LNs has a lot of dog blood dramas. All the toxics to taste the sweetness. <<less

Really fun light read guaranteed to give you cavities after only a few chapters!

Both leads are secretly rich and privileged, but pretending to be students to pursue the other.

No conflict so far, but there is some elite family drama to create some tension to go along with the fluff.

It's a fairy tale like story about two perfect protagonists who in order to pursue each other pretend to be poor students. If you are bored and want to satisfy your vanity, you can give this a try.

It's very fluffy and the romance progressed at a very fast pace. To the point that I'm just surprised at how ML don't waste time at all.

also, he doesn't lack in communication at all always making his intentions known. at the same time, he doesn't just sit back and assumed she's his girl. He openly admit to 'courting' her instead of thinking she's his just because he says so.

fast review. Will give more detailed review later

I loved it. I read this after reading a bunch of dark historical CN novels full of schemes so this was totally a palate cleanser. Sweet, fluffy, cute, and funny. No major antogonists or problems. Good quality translation. I mtl-ed the untranslated chapters but will come back someday when the translation is complete.

As far as I can remember, I already read this in MTL but I'm not sure if I finished it. Anyways, here I am re-reading it in better translation.

I just want to say, if you're not a fan of an OP MC and ML with cliche plot part and suchs. Don't read this, this is for those who appreciate totally fictional stories with unbelievable storyline and plot twist.

Anyways, the title really live up to its meaning. It's so hilarious seeing FL thinks that she's having the upper hand and the... more>> one attacking in their relationship.

Always, it's so cute seeing a different kind of ML, unlike other cliche stories with ML that is cold and only kind to the FL. The ML here have so much character to him that most of the MLs I read.

They're so cute together and the different attitude they show to different people shows much more depth in their character. Like how they show their wild side to their family and friends and yet having so different reputation in other people's eyes. It just depicts how a person really has different side to them just depends on who they're talking to.

Also, the ML is so cute like when he boast about the band-aid put by FL. And how he always tried to lower his score so that the FL is on the top and how clingy he is to FL. It's just so 😩🥺🤭, it's so hilarious how he always find ways to boasts his relationship with FL. Like his everyday sentence wouldn't be completed without having 'my girlfriend' phrase in it😩 Gosh! When will it be my turn?😥

Edit; 06/18/2023

So I ended up using MTL to finished the whole thing and I just want to say that, Gu Jue is the most sweetest ML ever🥺🥺🥺, it's quite refreshing to see this type of ML in most Chinese novels as most of them would always be cold, and domineering. Also, I really enjoyed the part of Gu Jue always finding ways to show off they're relationship, mostly in this kind of story the FL would always be the one telling the love story of them but in this novel, you'll always see Gu Jue showing off everywhere. Gu Jue is the 'if he want to, he would' type of guy and it's just so sweet and all😩🥺😍

P.S. I remember now, I actually wasn't able to finished reading it back then as the MTL chapters that time are quite messing, good thing I found the link for raws. <<less

Okay so I've read many of this type of novel before, but what I can say that made this unique from the seas of such other novels is the "atmosphere" it gives me; and it's not about the status, plot or whatever, but the personalities and interactions that built it. It's like standing on the top floor of a building for so long and suddenly going down and outside to breathe familiar and fresh air. There's no major plot so far, but the clues and pieces of it are slowly... more>> being thrown out which kept the pace and engagement going. I've especially stuck so far because I put my faith and expectation on the description which hooked me from the very beginning (and I'm dyiiiiiiing to see that day). The translation is gooooood and I can attest to that XD All in all, I'll give it a 4.7: Satisfying for a light read and recommended! <<less

it was really cute. I was originally impatient for the big reveal but apparently it will be near the end. I had a lot of expectations with some potential dog blood but overall the focus was the relationship development and some business dev. Other than that I was happy with the side stories of all the side characters. Couldve been 5 but really missing some spice.

It's getting boring, at first it was quite entertaining but the more I read the more I get bored, I was at c62 but they still not together each update is not interesting as it's started... I don't know maybe I'll come back and read it again once it's completely translated.

The novel is pretty good with fluff and humor.. Some things are a little illogical but still the sweetness won me over to read the novel and to mtl it. I like the interaction between the ML and fl, the ML is so cheesy, I wish I could find someone like him which is totally impossible lol! I like the friendship of the main characters too, it's a good read without any face slap or irritating moments

This is overall a good read.

I really liked interaction between ML and MC. They are such a cute couple.

However, it is not that realistic but you will enjoy it if you can ignore that.
