[Ode to Joy + Twenty Your Life On + Awakening + Refusing to Be a Blood Bank]
What is it like to be treated as an ATM by your birth family and drained dry for thirty years?
When her brother racks up enormous gambling debts, her entire family pressures her to mortgage her future to bail him out.
When her own mother pretends to drink pesticide and kill herself, all to force her to marry a sixty-two-year-old rich landowner in exchange for a 600,000-yuan bride price...
This time, Fan Shengmei, the princess of the hutongs, has finally woken up. She tears that veneer of shallow respectability to shreds!
She calls the police and has her own brother arrested, exposes her mother’s suicide act in front of everyone, and cuts ties with her family through a lawyer’s letter!
Just as she is plunging into the abyss, Zhou Xun, the cold-blooded venture capital king of Lujiazui, offers her a ticket into the game:
“Lesson one in investment: cut your losses. Work with me, and I’ll teach you to use the rules of capital to turn the tables on your whole family.”
At first, Zhou Xun only wants to use the cold logic of venture capital to teach her how to cut her losses and survive, treating her as a pawn crossing the board.
But he watches her shed her vain outer shell, take on scumbags in the headhunting arena, outwit the mole, and crown herself queen of the investment world, battle-worn yet ruthless and decisive. Before he knows it, the capitalist who has always calculated costs sees his every boundary collapse.
Until, at a financial summit, someone sneers that she is nothing more than Mr. Zhou’s plaything.
The usually restrained and dignified king of the investment world puts an arm around her waist in front of everyone, the corners of his eyes red as he whispers hoarsely:
“Wrong. Pulin Capital is mine, and I belong to her.”
[Sharp-tongued, rational investment mogul × Darkened queen fighting to survive] From family ATM to equals, with intense romantic tension and no frustrating setbacks!
