Forced to Marry a Broke, Rugged Man, I Had All of the Capital on Their Knees

Shen Zhiyi transmigrates into a book and becomes the infamous, vicious fake heiress who was kicked out of her home.

The real heiress conspires with her adoptive parents to humiliate her, packing her off as a "bride in a substitute marriage" to Xie Zhuo, a once-arrogant heir who has now gone bankrupt and been cast out by his family. He can only haul bricks at construction sites and live in a basement.

All of Jinghai is waiting for Shen Zhiyi to be tortured to death by this violent, sinister man.

To stay alive, Shen Zhiyi looks at the man in the dim basement, wearing a cheap tank top, caked in mud, and built with solid muscles. She promptly hands him a warm towel. "Hubby, you must be tired from hauling bricks!"

Xie Zhuo grips her chin, his gaze cold and dangerous. "Disgusted by me?"

Shen Zhiyi shakes her head frantically. "No! I love a man who's physically strong!"

At first, Xie Zhuo assumes the woman with all her honeyed words must have an ulterior motive, and watches her performance with cold eyes.

But later, when a pink-haired young top-tier star shows up by Shen Zhiyi's side...

His fellow workers are horrified to discover that the usually composed and ruthless Brother Xie has bent a steel bar with his bare hands. Then he goes home at night, eyes red, and pins his wife against the basement's rickety door, kissing her fiercely. "Why are you looking at him? Can't I support you by hauling bricks?!"

Then one day, at a grand banquet attended by the top families of the capital,

the real heiress and a group of socialites plan to humiliate Shen Zhiyi to the utmost, trampling her underfoot.

The bodyguards respectfully open the doors, and the head of a trillion-yuan conglomerate, the fabled true heir of the Xie family renowned for his ruthless decisiveness, enters to a crowd of awestruck onlookers.

He walks straight to Shen Zhiyi and drops to one knee, his gaze obsessive and feverish. "Mrs. Xie, have you had enough? I'm here to take you home."

The entire capital's elite circle goes mad! What happened to the down-on-his-luck bricklayer?!
