The rich young ladies of Jiangcheng are all waiting for a joke: the Yang family's country girl, brought back from the countryside, is going to marry the Gong family's young master, who is rumored to be disfigured.
When Yang Youning accepted a million, she showed no emotion and simply signed the notarized document severing ties with the family.
She had repaid the debt of being raised. From then on, she had nothing more to do with the Yang family.
No one knew that Gong Heng, the supposedly disfigured young master of the Gong family, had been waiting for her all along.
One glance in an alley eight years ago had stayed with him ever since. The five hundred million in bride price wasn't to buy her as a bride, but to buy her freedom.
On their wedding day, Gong Heng revealed his true face, and the entire room fell silent.
The rich young ladies who had mocked the match were sick with regret, including the fake heiress, his younger sister.
What they never expected was that at a charity gala, the host would announce a name: "Yang Youning, chairwoman of Jiuzhou Group."
The whole room erupted.
The girl everyone had taken for a country bumpkin held a business empire even greater than the Gong family's in her hands.
The fake heiress fell to her knees and begged for forgiveness. Yang Youning went straight to the police.
Her biological father repented, but she showed him a DNA report: she had a different background, and the mother who had once abandoned her was actually the missing eldest daughter of a wealthy family.
Everyone thought she was a pawn. In the end, she was the one moving the pieces.
And Gong Heng had only one thing to say, from beginning to end: "Whatever happens to my wife is my business."
