Xu Si spent six years delivering takeout to support his girlfriend. They had agreed that on the day she passed the civil service exam, she would accept his proposal. But when she finally landed a government job, she dumped him outright, saying the gap between their social classes was too great.
Xu Si laughed and pushed his credit card toward her. "Fine. There's 240,000 yuan on here. You can pay it back yourself."
Xu Si had thought he would have to accept the arranged marriage waiting for him back home. Then, by chance, he met a young woman in the same predicament.
She was pure and beautiful, and her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Xu Si. "Save me..."
Taking the principle of seeing a rescue through to the end, Xu Si offered to take her home. He never expected her to latch onto him...
After the unexpected night, she spoke at last. "What do we do?"
Xu Si said, "As you can see, I'm just a delivery guy. I can cover the basics, but I can take responsibility for you."
The young woman sniffled. "Then let's get married right now!"
Xu Si said, "Right now!?"
The young woman was resolute. "Yes!"
That very day, Xu Si somehow ended up registering his marriage with her.
On the surface, he was a hardworking delivery driver. Until, later on...
"Um, honey, your husband is actually pretty rich..."
A certain campus belle: "Actually, I'm only a tiny bit rich, too..."
Later, his ex-girlfriend regretted her decision and came crying to him for a loan.
His campus-belle wife snapped furiously, "Get out, get out, all of you!"
Xu Si affectionately patted her head. Who could resist a beautiful girl so pampered, strong-willed, and domineering?
