Her grandmother was critically ill, and her dying wish was for her to find a good man to marry.
Ye Li began looking for candidates.
When He Junyao’s friend was dumped by his girlfriend of several years for pretending to be poor, He Junyao bet him that even a poor guy could find true love.
The two hit it off and got married in no time.
After the wedding, their flaws gradually came to light.
He Junyao was sharp-tongued, always knowing exactly how to hit someone where it hurt. Even his friend was so infuriated that he got into a fight with him.
Ye Li was miserly and loved buying discounted goods. Her quest to save ten yuan on three tubs of yogurt with less than five days until their expiration date landed her in the hospital and cost her two thousand yuan.
They both loathed each other’s flaws.
But for all his sharp words, He Junyao could see through Ye Li’s tough act and recognize her vulnerability. When her grandmother died, he took charge of the funeral. When her younger sister was bullied and jumped off a building, he found a therapist to help her and sent the bullies to prison.
Ye Li might have been miserly, but she spent the savings she had built up over six months of part-time work on an expensive suit for He Junyao’s birthday. When he was in danger, she was willing to use every last cent she had, even borrowing money to save him.
As they got to know each other, fell in love, and grew closer, they slowly made their way into each other’s hearts.
Just before He Junyao was about to come clean to Ye Li, a woman told her that he was worth hundreds of billions and had married her only because of a bet. He had never loved her.
Ye Li left in a fury, carrying their unborn child.
Later, the usually dignified man knelt in the rain, begging Ye Li to come back.
