A self-serving real heiress VS a sharp-tongued, softhearted young master who dishes out face-slapping comebacks
(The heroine is psychologically unable to tolerate the smell of smoke or alcohol. She will recover later.)
Yu Yao picked up a man who had lost his memory.
She gave him a name and an identity.
They spent two “humble and shabby” years together in a rented apartment in a remote little town.
When she learned that she was the real heiress of the Yu family, having been switched at birth by a nurse, she unilaterally broke up with the man by message and blocked and deleted every way he could contact her.
She chose to keep the baby and leave the father behind.
Zhou Yu was the crown prince of the capital’s elite circle.
A symbol of power and status.
When they were together, Yu Yao treated him like a dog.
She deceived him, toyed with him, and abandoned him.
After he recovered his memories, he returned to the top of the world.
He told everyone he would make Yu Yao pay dearly.
He would get back all the hurt and humiliation he’d suffered at that woman’s hands during those two years.
A rear-end collision
led him to unexpectedly run into that woman from back then.
Using underhanded tactics, he made her sign an employment contract.
He was the employer.
He made Yu Yao, who retched at the smell of alcohol, hold his liquor for him.
He thought she’d be able to keep a straight face.
But when Yu Yao really did crouch in the bathroom and vomit until she was utterly exhausted, Zhou Yu’s heart ached.
He held her in his arms, but his words were as hard as stone.
“The drinks got spilled. You’re paying for them, one million per glass.”
After that, he made Yu Yao, who couldn’t cook, prepare meals at his private villa.
He thought he could stand by and watch without a care.
But when Yu Yao’s hand blistered from a burn,
he carried over a medicine kit and personally applied the ointment.
He was so gentle you’d think he was afraid of hurting her.
He even ate the slop she made, the kind not even a dog would touch, without batting an eye.
Even after food poisoning sent him to the hospital,
he dragged his sick body back to the office and signed a contract with Yu Yao himself.
Later,
when that woman’s son was treated unfairly,
he couldn’t bear it either.
