Chu Ci concealed his identity and supported his cold, beautiful fiancée, Lin Wanqiu, for three whole years.
Then Lin Wanqiu's first love returned from abroad. She coldly handed him a letter ending their engagement. "You're just his stand-in. The real deal is back, so take the money and get lost."
Chu Ci didn't argue or make a scene. He signed the papers and walked away without hesitation.
The moment he stepped outside, he awakened the "Thrive on Your Wife's Wealth" System and happened to save a stunning heiress. They got married on the spot!
Lin Wanqiu assumed Chu Ci would be reduced to begging after leaving her, and that sooner or later he'd come crawling back like a dog.
But she never expected the family business she was so proud of to be tricked into bankruptcy by her first love!
With nowhere left to turn, Lin Wanqiu broke down in regret and knelt before Chu Ci, crying. "Chu Ci, I was wrong. Please love me one more time!"
Before Chu Ci could reply, his seemingly delicate new bride led ten thousand members of the Netherworld Hall in smashing through the gates.
His wife, the dark empress, sneered. "You think you can use my husband as a stand-in? You aren't worthy!"
Chu Ci spread his hands helplessly. "Can't be helped. The doctor says my stomach is weak, so I can only live off my wife's money."
