[Super-sweet one-on-one romance + sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside leads + genuine devotion + face-slapping]
[Fu Zhizhi: Tingxia, you’ve never been beneath anyone. We’re made for each other, two branches from the same tree. Let’s stay together for life, until our hair turns white.]
[Gu Tingxia: The only light in my life, my Zhizhi, my Meow Meow, the apple of her big brother’s eye. No one can take you away from me. Not even death can separate us.]
The older generation had never learned to talk things through. They let misunderstandings fester instead of explaining themselves, and Fu Zhizhi got swept up in the craze of switched heiresses. But it wasn’t an enemy or a servant who switched her. It was her scumbag father.
After discovering the truth in her father’s diary, Fu Zhizhi decided to return to her home country and find her birth mother.
Her scumbag father was no good?
No problem. She’d just find a better one.
When Fu Zhizhi got home, she was ready to turn the place upside down, but her birth mother and two older brothers all saw her as a delicate, timid little weakling who was easy to bully.
Wait, why does her eldest brother look so much like…?
And another thing, why does the man making a deal with her look exactly like the incurable yandere back home?
Fine, fine. The whole family is sweet on the outside and dark on the inside. They’re so good at pretending.
“Darling, I was wrong. Just hear me out!”
In front of everyone, Gu Tingxia dropped to his knees at Fu Zhizhi’s feet and begged her to forgive him, right in front of his subordinates.
“Fine, explain yourself. You can explain properly tonight!”
Fu Zhizhi lifted her foot, the tip of her black high heel tilting up Gu Tingxia’s chin.
“Of course, darling. You can explain, too. Why is their heiress my delicate, fragile darling?”
Fu Zhizhi’s legs went weak. Why did her back suddenly hurt?
