Li Xinxin is a modern-day corporate drone, a food blogger who livestreams for ten hours every day. One moment she’s asleep, and the next she’s a mother!
And not just any mother: she’s been bullied into a corner and has swallowed rat poison!
Anyone can die, but not her!
Those awful relatives need to pay up, so Li Xinxin goes after what she’s owed!
If she needs to cut ties, she cuts ties!
And if they push her too far, she’ll fight them with a knife!
“Mom, I’m hungry…”
The three-year-old whimpers pitifully, belly rumbling as he shivers with cold.
How could Li Xinxin let her child go hungry?
Sweet-potato cakes with preserved plums, pickled cabbage and tofu buns, pork stir-fry braised with noodles, popcorn chicken, tiramisu… She’s a walking encyclopedia of snacks and dishes.
She makes money selling food on the street, never minding the hardship or exhaustion, and their life visibly begins to improve. But then a rich young woman shows up at her door. “Take your child abroad. I’ll cover all the expenses. Stay away from Brother Chenzhou!”
Fu Chenzhou? Her child’s father? An officer from a family of generations of high officials?
“I won’t!”
Li Xinxin taunts her defiantly. “Get Fu Chenzhou here and have him tell me to leave to my face!”
Fu Chenzhou comes, and to her surprise, he pulls her into his arms. “Xinxin, marry me.”
Li Xinxin: “???”
Has the God of Wealth just walked through her door?
Fine!
No point turning down free money. She’ll ask for child support first, then demand compensation for the years she lost. If he wants to marry her, he’d better pay a generous bride price!
Good book, really good, I like it very much
