Shen Zhixia transmigrates into a book and becomes the unlucky younger sister of the top-tier doormat male supporting character, who is doomed to die because of the female lead.
In the original story, her billionaire tycoon of a brother is about to give away company shares as a birthday present to the scheming female lead, who’s been stringing him along.
Shen Zhixia sneers. “If you’re going to be a walking ATM, then I’ll be the spendthrift little sister!”
On the day her brother plans to confess, she drops a ten-billion-yuan debt statement into the family group chat. “Bro, I’ve got my eye on a handsome scrap collector. I’m going to give him that plot of land south of the city to settle his debt.”
Her brother sees black and calls off the confession on the spot. If he doesn’t rein her in, she’ll have the family tomb dug up next!
To cure her brother’s lovesick brain once and for all, Shen Zhixia pays a fortune to hire an intimidating “unemployed drifter” to come home with her.
“Bro, I’m building him a recycling center in the back garden!”
“If you object, I’ll take him to sleep under an overpass!”
From then on, the domineering CEO brother who used to orbit the scheming woman turns into his little sister’s devoted guard dog, keeping an eye on the menace 24/7. The female lead cries her eyes out, but her ATM is nowhere to be found.
Shen Zhixia thinks she’s accomplished her mission, and tosses a wad of cash at the “bankrupt hoodlum” to settle up and send him on his way.
But at a top-tier gala in Beijing’s elite circle, the “scrap collector” transforms into a ruthless tycoon heir.
He pins Shen Zhixia in a secluded corner of the hall, eyes dark and voice low. “Miss Shen, you used me and now you want to run? I don’t accept cash payments here.”
Shen Zhixia asks nervously, “Then what do you want?”
He leans close to her ear, smiling with obsessive intensity. “You. You’ll settle the debt.”
