Gender Swap: I Took Out a Loan Because I Was Broke

[Angst for the Male Lead] + [Tortured Romance] + [Coercion] + [Single Male Lead]

With nowhere else to turn, the orphan Chen Meng takes out a loan that delivers her into the hands of the powerful Lai Jingyuan. He is an untouchable elite at the top of Shenchuan's social hierarchy, cold and heartless, with an overwhelming need for control. She is a timid, meek young woman with a tragic past, yielding at every turn. In the name of salvation, he gives her food and shelter, a stable life, and endless confinement.

An unequal struggle, an entanglement born of scheming.
