[Bright, coquettish little troublemaker x gloomy heir to a powerful family | Rental-apartment romance | Taming | Unconventional redemption]
Xu Qining was buried alive.
In her previous life, she stole someone else's credit for saving him and treated Xie Ci, the chaebol heir who had been kidnapped, like a dog for a year.
He worked four jobs every day to earn money for her to squander, and had to attend to her every night, letting her take whatever she wanted.
Then the Xie family found him. Her lies were exposed, and she was thrown out. Before long, she learned he was to enter an arranged marriage.
Unable to accept it, she went to stop him, only to be buried alive in a cruel manner by his deranged admirer.
When she opened her eyes again, she had been reborn in the cramped rental apartment. A few scenes had also appeared in her mind:
After Xie Ci was recognized by his wealthy family, he would become completely twisted and deranged.
Looking at Xie Ci, whose face was flushed with fever as he knelt before her to satisfy her, Xu Qining trembled in fright.
In an instant, she transformed into a master of celibacy, focused solely on saving money so she could flee and stay alive.
After finally saving enough, she escaped on a late-night high-speed train. She dozed off, only to wake up back in his burning embrace.
The man gripped her crossed wrists, his gaze blazing. "You used my body and played with my heart, and now you want to run?"
"Since you lied to me, you'll have to keep lying for the rest of your life."
Later, Old Master Xie asked him, "What do you love about her? She's only after your money."
Xie Ci answered without hesitation, "Everything."
"Money, power, and my body are all parts of me. If she loves those things, then she loves me."
