Love is Sweet

Jiang Jun leaves a comfortable role in philanthropy to honor her late father's wish and signs on at one of the city's top investment firms. She expects an intense workplace, and that's exactly what she finds: cutthroat colleagues, high-stakes projects, and a corporate culture that rewards results. On arrival she runs into Yuan Shuai, a childhood friend who has become a rival at the firm. Professional challenges force Jiang Jun to sharpen her analytical skills, spot hidden agendas, and make choices about trust and ambition. Along the way she grows into a more assertive leader, while personal relationships shift as career goals and romantic feelings increasingly overlap.
