[Mad Fake Heiress from Classical Jiangnan vs. Purehearted, Domineering Heir of Beijing]
Ye Zhi'en, the youngest daughter of the Ye Group, was raised in the water town of Jiangnan and kept sheltered from the world.
With her graceful figure and beauty like a flower emerging from the water, she was the very picture of a classical beauty.
At a grand gathering of the wealthy, she made her first public appearance, playing the guqin and attracting the covetous attention of several men.
The Xie family's illegitimate son, the Jiang father and son, her childhood sweetheart, and even the Ye family's two young masters...
Ye Zhi'en wasn't the Ye family's real daughter. She was merely a substitute who enjoyed the same privileges as the true heiress.
Her adoptive parents treated her poorly and restricted her freedom at every turn. Before long, she would be married off to an old man who held absolute power across Jiangnan...
Huo Xingzhou, the heir of Beijing's most powerful family, was a refined young man of immense influence. His family background and genes were top-tier: six-foot-two, with eight-pack abs from years of working out, long legs, and a handsome face.
Even the biggest stars couldn't outshine him. Wherever he went, he was a sight to behold.
Having just returned from abroad, he was tricked by his family into going to Jiangnan. When he learned that his grandfather had arranged a marriage for him without his consent, he resisted to no avail and chose to run away from home.
The two seemed to have nothing to do with each other, yet they met because of a deliberately engineered accident.
Each had their own motives, but in a moment of reckless passion, they slept together.
Ye Zhi'en was rebellious, but Huo Xingzhou wasn't. He had been secretly in love with her for ten whole years, searching for her all that time...
She thought it would be a casual fling, but no matter what she did, she couldn't shake Huo Xingzhou. The man clung to her like a persistent nuisance.
He loved her and spoiled her.
But she had issues. She only wanted to use him, then run away...
