The laid-back, money-loving little chef vs. the gloomy, obsessive, down-and-out heir to a financial empire
Bai Xi opens her eyes to find herself transmigrated into an urban business novel as a universally hated drama queen. She’s in the middle of forcing Shang Zechen, a disgraced financial tycoon saddled with enormous debts, to break up with her.
In the original story, she not only calls him a “useless loser” but also takes the last of his life-saving money and runs off to a wealthy sponsor. Only later does she learn that the male lead is the long-lost heir to the top Shang family financial empire in the capital! Once he regains his identity, he acts ruthlessly, and the first thing he does is throw her into the sea to feed the sharks.
Bai Xi looks at the breakup agreement she just signed, tears it to shreds in a panic, and throws herself into his arms. “Boyfriend, I was just testing you! From now on, I’ll support you with a street stall!”
To avoid becoming shark food, Bai Xi pushes the taciturn Shang Zechen into setting up a stall at the night market.
The financial tycoon can’t afford a meal? She cooks up her family’s secret fried rice, making half the street drool!
The financial tycoon is withdrawn and depressed? She kisses and cuddles him every day, showers him with compliments, and drags him out of his gloom whether he likes it or not!
The financial tycoon is being bullied? She brandishes a frying pan and shields him. “Who dares lay a hand on my man?!”
Later, his first love, Gu Qingyan, shows up, and Bai Xi quickly packs her things, ready to run.
Who could have guessed that the man who once “wanted nothing” would suddenly pin her firmly behind the door, his eyes bloodshot and his voice hoarse with barely contained madness? “Where are you going? We agreed to make a baby tonight, remember? Hmm?”
