I’m Lin Man, filthy rich and perfectly clearheaded. With a face like mine, I know I’d have to spend a fortune to land a top-tier hottie.
So I hired the incredibly handsome Zhou Yu, a sweet young thing, and we signed an agreement and became husband and wife. Everything had its price.
He was after my money and hoped I’d die every day so he could inherit my fortune.
I was after his looks and happily paid for the pleasure of having him around.
We were perfectly in sync, bickering on livestream: “He’ll only get rich once I’m dead!” “I’ll only live comfortably as long as she stays alive!”
Then I realized that every one of this idiot’s “murder attempts” went spectacularly wrong.
He tried to feed me poisoned soup, but got food poisoning first. He tried to push me down the stairs, but slipped and tumbled down himself...
The whole internet was laughing: “This isn’t murder for money. He’s single-handedly increasing his wife’s life expectancy!”
But when he really did take out a 300-million accidental death insurance policy in my name, I couldn’t laugh anymore.
Sweet boy, are you really stupid, or are you pretending?
Together as husband and wife, we wish for my early demise. Working hand in hand, we’ll help me live to a ripe old age!
As I read it, it suddenly started to sound like a "criminal investigation article"
