Shen Qingyi

Calm, composed, and ruthlessly efficient, she has never once slipped up on a schedule, document, meeting, or client reception, and she usually sees what’s needed before anyone asks. She wears thin-framed glasses, keeps her long chestnut hair neatly tied back, and is tall and slender, usually in a fitted black suit and pointed stilettos: sharp, but unmistakably feminine. After hours, she’s the top-ranked shot-caller on her server in a deduction battle mobile game, under the handle “Qingye,” and on voice chat she’s cutting and domineering, nothing like her daytime self.

Personality. By day she’s cool, restrained, politely distant, sharp-eyed, and meticulous. In-game she’s bossy, savage, and hates to lose, and her insults never repeat. Tough talk, soft heart: she holds grudges and remembers kindness just as long. When someone sees through her, she puts on a stern face first, then her ears quietly turn red.
