[Mutual devotion] + [everyday life] + [sweet romance] + [both leads are each other’s only ones] + [young heir] + [strong heroine]
[A patient, scheming heir × a heroine focused on making money]
After staying up all night to finish The Villainous Heroine’s Guide to Self-Destruction, Li Muzi was furious. In the book, the wicked supporting girl who shared her name hit and berated the future heir, Ying Dongqing, before he made his fortune. In the end, she met a miserable fate. Serves her right!
Then Li Muzi woke up and found herself in that very role.
Looking at Ying Dongqing, who was still down on his luck, Li Muzi promptly changed tactics. Instead of beating and scolding him, she decided to raise him. She treated Ying Dongqing like a cat: she coaxed him when she was in a good mood, and ignored him when she wasn’t. She did as she pleased and refused to stress herself out. If Ying Dongqing so much as frowned, she shot back, “What’s with that attitude? You still want me to keep investing in you?”
Over a year and a half, she raised this bedraggled “stray cat” until his coat was glossy, and decided she’d done her good deed for the day.
Just as he was about to reclaim his family name, Li Muzi dug out every valuable thing she owned and carefully prepared a gift for him, hoping he’d remember her kindness once he became successful and help her fulfill her dream of becoming a rich woman.
The next day,
he not only reunited with his biological father, but also showed up at her doorstep with a wedding procession so lavish it shook the capital.
Gazing at the priceless betrothal gifts and the man’s confident smile, Li Muzi was completely dumbfounded.
Ying Dongqing leaned toward her and asked slowly, in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Miss Muzi, I’m very fond of the token of love you gave me. So... do you like my return gift?”
Li Muzi burst into tears. “Help! I wanted a cut of the profits, not a job!”
