[Male lead reborn + seven-year age gap + older man who indulges her without limits + composed CEO vs. dramatic star]
“Here’s eight million. I have only one condition: leave Zhou Jin.”
Wen Jinzhi sits across from Zhou Huaiyu, the head of the powerful Zhou family in the capital, feeling so nervous she can barely meet his eyes.
Still, she puts on a brave face. “Uncle, eight million isn’t enough to buy two years of my time.”
When the contract between the superstar and the rich playboy is exposed, everyone assumes Wen Jinzhi is madly in love with Zhou Jin, the second-generation heir of the Zhou family. Outsiders who dig into the couple’s history find that since getting together, they have been practically inseparable.
Only Wen Jinzhi knows that isn’t true. She’s only in it for the money.
Besides, Zhou Jin approached her only because her features resembled those of the woman he loved but could never have.
She knows all this, so when she falls out with Zhou Jin and finds herself trapped with nowhere else to turn, her friend urges her to go after Zhou Jin’s uncle, saying it would feel amazing to hear Zhou Jin call her Auntie.
It pays to take good advice.
Wen Jinzhi acts at once.
But she really does ensnare the man at the very top of the pyramid. He corners her in the house rented by the film crew and kisses her until she can barely catch her breath.
Especially with Zhou Jin calling for her from outside the door, seemingly ready to kick it down at any moment.
“Don’t know how to breathe?” Zhou Huaiyu teases with a smile when the kiss ends. Wen Jinzhi rolls her eyes. She can barely stand, but still refuses to back down. “Your nephew’s right outside. Mr. Zhou, are you going to announce to the world that you’ve cuckolded your nephew?”
The man couldn’t care less. “Either you tell him to get lost, or I open the door and walk out.”
