Lin Xinyou was Gu Chennian’s stand-in for the woman he loved, serving him devotedly as a slave. When his beloved returned from abroad, he kicked Lin Xinyou out, and she eventually died in the countryside. Gu Chennian turned around and proposed to his beloved.
After being reborn, Lin Xinyou used Gu Chennian as a stepping stone and a sucker. She threw herself into starting a business, made the most of the resources around him, and followed the path of a domineering CEO until she became a powerful businesswoman herself.
Gu Chennian, a cold and aloof CEO, was manipulated by the reborn Lin Xinyou. She turned him from a scumbag into a model of wifely virtue. After years of pursuing her and suffering for it, he proposed, only to be rejected.
“Xinyou, do you know how miserable I’ve been, being your devoted puppy all these years? Why won’t you marry me?”
Mr. Gu’s heart shattered into a million pieces.
Lin Xinyou raised an eyebrow and lifted Gu Chennian’s chin with her slender fingers.
“Gu Chennian, I’m not the marrying kind. But your genes seem pretty good, so how about we have a child to inherit the family business?”
