[Polished, Self-Interested Woman vs. Cruel, Thuggish Man]
[Younger Man | Insecure | Reunited After a Long Separation]
[The heroine has been married before, but she's pure. Read without worry.]

A routine firing brings her face-to-face with someone she used to know.
The withdrawn boy she once deceived at every turn has become a powerful man far beyond her reach.
Zhao Jingzhou kicks her while she's down and asks if she wants a long-term arrangement, with generous compensation.
Qin Yao doesn't trust the little brat and demands to see the money first.
The two of them stare at the few hundred yuan in the account. Qin Yao points a trembling finger at it. "This is what you called generous compensation?"
Zhao Jingzhou pulls her close by the waist. "The funds took a hit. You'll have to make do for now."
Why does that familiar tone sound so much like the way she used to swindle Zhao Jingzhou?
