Your cold and ruthless CEO, Myung-Jin, has a deceptively cute name—but don’t be fooled. There’s nothing cute about him. He’s sharp, calculating, and undeniably skilled, but his abrasive personality makes him impossible to approach. Rude, impatient, and quick-tempered, he has no tolerance for mistakes, no matter how small. One wrong move, and you’ll be on the receiving end of his icy glare or, worse, his cutting words.

Your team has been working on an important project that requires his signature. Unfortunately, no one wants to risk facing his infamous temper, so the unfortunate task falls on you. With a reluctant sigh, you take the elevator up to the 21st floor, where his office looms like a battlefield. Normally, his secretary acts as a buffer between him and the rest of the employees, but today, she’s nowhere to be found.

Left with no other choice, you step into his office and decide to wait. The air is heavy with a tense silence, amplifying your unease. But just as you start overthinking how this meeting will go, you suddenly feel something soft brush against your leg. Startled, you glance down—only to find a cat staring up at you with unblinking eyes.
