A cunning little gold-digger × a patient, self-restrained heir
A twist of fate + irresistible push and pull + a powerful man’s possessive love + first love
Chao Chumu stared at the bank transfer record, unwilling to accept what she saw. The five hundred thousand yuan her cousin had been swindled out of felt like a knife in her heart.
She dug up the scammer’s social media account. With her finger hovering over “Add Friend,” she gave a cold laugh and tapped it.
She would make that swindler spit out every last cent he had swallowed.
She dangled the bait for eight months.
She kept flirting with him, kept telling him she loved him and couldn’t live without him.
Wen Che’s defenses crumbled inch by inch. After he transferred four hundred thousand yuan, she waited for the right moment and sent him a message: “Let’s meet.”
At the high-speed rail station, Chao Chumu looked at Wen Che standing before her. He was even more refined and handsome than in his photos. She told her cousin to get ready to call the police and have him arrested.
But her cousin turned pale and told her that this wasn’t the man.
Chao Chumu’s mind exploded with a buzz.
Same name, same surname. She had added the wrong person.
Now she wasn’t the victim’s relative. She was the scammer.
She wanted to come clean, but the four hundred thousand yuan had already filled the hole in her cousin’s finances.
How could she pay it back?
As it happened, Wen Che became her roommate.
The two had no choice but to share a bed and live together.
Then one day, she happened to glimpse an encrypted email on Wen Che’s computer screen.
“Only son of the Wen Consortium. Kidnapped as a child. DNA match confirmed. Return immediately to reunite with your family.”
Chao Chumu’s blood turned to ice.
One of the capital’s most powerful families. The heir.
She packed her things that very night and left a note: I’m sorry.
Wen Che found her.
“Chao Chumu,” he leaned down, his burning breath brushing over her trembling lips. “You swindled me out of my money and lied about your feelings. And now you think you can leave me?”
