I’m the woman Wei Ci keeps on the side. Why is he only the second-richest? Because there’s someone even richer above him. That richest man surely... has nothing to do with me.
In other people’s eyes, I’m just a flashy gold-digger. Once he marries a proper wife, he’ll abandon me when I’m past my prime. But I don’t care. It’s not him I’m after, it’s his gold. I love gold so much!
With his influence behind me, I can get my little businesses up and running in no time. My greatest pleasure each day is counting my little private stash. I’m grinning even in my sleep.
Who cares about a title? It’s just an empty label.
Seeing more and more women flocking around him, and knowing that his childhood sweetheart, Zhang Ruozhi, is about to return to the city, I decide it’s best to make my escape first!
Day one: “My lord, you’ve gotten fat. I don’t like you anymore. We’re breaking up.”
“My lord, I’ll lose weight.”
Day N: “My lord, you’re not the richest man. I never loved you. We’re breaking up.”
“So you really do love my money more.” He paused what he was doing.
“Lucky for you, I can get even richer. Now I love you even more!”
Watching him bury his face in my arms in a frenzy, I feel like I’m made of gold.
With a sigh, I take out my phone and open my banking app.
