[Spoiled, down-and-out, hot-tempered heiress × brooding, devoted kept man]
[Pure romance + rekindled love + wealthy families + elite school + loyal to each other + one-on-one romance + living together before falling in love + sweet indulgence]
The whole city was waiting to laugh at her, amused that the kept man she once supported had now become the heir to a top-tier wealthy family.
Jiang Shiming was once a rich heiress. At eighteen, she announced in public that she was keeping Xie Zhuonian, a poor student who rarely spoke.
He became her kept man, accepting her protection and giving her all the companionship and excitement she longed for in her youth.
Then the Jiang family went bankrupt. She cast him aside herself, crushing his pride and all the love he had for her.
Five years later, the eldest Miss of the Jiang family was scraping by selling roasted sweet potatoes at the night market, while her former kept man had risen to become the head of a business empire.
Fate brought them together again.
She was pushed in front of him by the crowd, like a down-and-out bird being offered up as a sacrifice.
Everyone knew Xie Zhuonian hated her to the core.
All the guests waited for her to beg and grovel.
Under everyone’s gaze, Jiang Shiming smiled.
Then she crooked a finger at the man who held the power of life and death.
“Xie Zhuonian, crawl over here and wipe my shoes clean.”
The entire hall fell silent.
As everyone watched in horror, the man rumored to be ruthless, cold, and imperious really did rise slowly and walk up to her, lowering himself onto one knee.
The gesture was exactly the same as it had been four years ago.
