Pregnancy Means an 800-Yuan Bride Price? She Turns Around and Brings Her In-Laws to Their Knees

[A seemingly sweet little fox vs. a sultry, abstinent big bad wolf, sweet-and-angsty tension, a husband’s road to redemption] Lin Yue, a dirt-poor nail technician, marries a domineering CEO. He promised her a bride price of 880,000 yuan. But as soon as she gets pregnant, her mother-in-law pushes 800 yuan toward her. “This is more than generous.” The CEO sits in the head seat, checking his email. “Listen to my mom.” “...” Clutching the money, Lin Yue’s first thought is: Oh no, I’ve been tricked into marriage! Her second thought: This man is rich. I’ll sweet-talk him, get the 880,000 yuan bride price back, and then dump him! So she gets started: acting sweet to charm the CEO, taking down the scheming foster sister who covets him, and outsmarting her wicked mother-in-law. She’s sharp with every move! “...” Later, once she’s saved enough money, she puts everyone in their place and walks away. “...” The CEO turns into an obedient golden retriever, holding their child in one arm and clinging to her leg with the other. He offers her all his assets and begs her to stay. The CEO’s foster sister, technically Lin Yue’s sister-in-law, meets a tragic end after Lin Yue is through with her. Even the wicked mother-in-law who couldn’t stand her acts like a kitten around her, and from then on has to watch her every step.
