A Hidden Beauty in the Tenement: The Rough-Hewn Tycoon Is Addicted to Pretending to Be Poor

After going bankrupt and becoming a fake heiress, Shen Jingluo rents the cheapest apartment in a tenement building.

Her rough, burly roommate next door, Zhou Heye, stands six foot three and is covered in muscle. He looks like a desperate criminal who could start hacking people up at any moment.

To stay alive, Shen Jingluo acts sweet and pitiful every day, calling him "Brother Zhou" at every turn. In secret, she sends out resumes everywhere, desperate to move out and get away from this dangerous man.

Until one stormy night, she drags her suitcase out, ready to sneak away.

The moment she opens the door, more than a dozen black Rolls-Royces block the narrow alley completely.

Zhou Heye, who had been penniless, is now dressed in a perfectly tailored designer suit. He loosens his tie with one hand and forces her back into the sweltering rental apartment.

With a bang, the security door locks.

His warm, rough palm grips her waist, pinning her against the peeling wall. "Jingluo, you eat my food and drink my drinks, and now that you think I'm poor, you want to run?"
