Mu Xing, the eldest daughter of a wealthy jewelry family in Hong Kong, was bound to a Gold-Digger System one day.
System: [Earn 30 million from your target, Zhou Licheng. Succeed, and I’ll give you a house in City A.]
Mu Xing sneered. “I’ve got a perfectly good coastal villa. Why would I want some shabby house of yours?”
System: [I’ll also guarantee that your grandmother wakes from her vegetative state, lives to a ripe old age, and enjoys good health.]
Mu Xing shot to her feet, her expression resolute. “Thirty million, right? Find me a target!”
“Wait?” Mu Xing stared at the profile in horror. “How is this target a broke student???”

Zhou Licheng was the true eldest young master of the Zhou family, one of the capital’s most powerful families. His mother had sent him to an elite academy and, on a whim, decided he should pretend to be a struggling college student.
In his dull everyday life, a transfer student caught his attention.
Wearing black-rimmed glasses and a modest school uniform, the seemingly well-behaved girl walked right up beside him. She wore pearl jade earrings by a famous designer worth 880,000 yuan.
“Zhou.” The transfer student, whose earrings, bracelet, and even backpack were all custom-made, looked pitifully at him. “I’m hungry and broke. Could you give me some money for food?”
Zhou Licheng discreetly sized up the transfer student and hid his 3-million-yuan watch. “My family’s poor.”
Mu Xing, who had just received a sports car worth 38.88 million yuan for her birthday, said, “I’m penniless!”
They stared at each other.
Zhou Licheng/Mu Xing: So I’ve met my match.
How am I supposed to get money out of him/her, or convince him/her that I’m broke?
Until one day, at a gathering of the world’s wealthiest people, the heiress from Hong Kong and the young master from the capital made their entrance. They stared at each other.
Mu Xing: ?
Zhou Licheng: ?
