Zhan Ying is an ordinary office worker with a flair for drama and overthinking. When she begins to notice how her cold, composed boss Zhou Yuanyou consistently looks out for her, an unsettling question takes root: does her boss actually have feelings for her? Unsure whether she’s reading too much into things or falling straight into a romantic trap, Zhan Ying finds herself spiraling into confusion. Before she can sort out her emotions, she realizes she may already be caught in Zhou Yuanyou’s quiet, irresistible pull.
Straight Girl Trap thrives on charm, contrast, and comedic tension. Zhan Ying’s exaggerated reactions and internal panic play perfectly against Zhou Yuanyou’s calm, unreadable demeanor, creating a dynamic that’s both amusing and endearing.
Rather than pushing heavy drama, the story focuses on emotional curiosity and romantic uncertainty—exploring how small gestures can feel overwhelming when feelings are involved. It’s a relaxed, feel-good GL that doesn’t take itself too seriously, making it ideal for readers looking for light romance with workplace flair.
