[Clearheaded Down-and-Out Heiress × Pure-Love, Unhinged Tycoon]
[Marriage First, Love Later + Winning Her Back + Secret Crush + Bittersweet Romance + Happy Ending]
Seventeen was the dividing line between heaven and hell.
Her parents died one after the other, leaving her, still in school, with her elderly grandmother.
She had no time to grieve. Her studies, her family, and crushing debt were all weighing her down...
She set her sights on the Zhou family's illegitimate son. She would use him to climb her way to the top.

Zhou Ji was a rat in the gutter, despised by everyone. He kept company with darkness and filth. Then one day, sunlight suddenly fell on him. He was uneasy, but he began to pay attention to that glimmer of light.
The sun was meant to shine and give warmth. Even if he wore a human face, he had never wanted to possess it. He only needed to drive away the dark clouds and storms for her.
What you cannot have will always keep you yearning. If Yang Xian hadn't said, "Zhou Ji, he's the one I want," he would have kept protecting her from a careful distance forever. Even knowing she was using him, he was still more than willing.

"Yang Xian, could you look at me?"
"Could you love me, even just a little?"
"Could you please not leave?"
"I'll give you everything. Please take me away."
