    Well, maybe the author is just too narcissistic, thinking their writing is too brilliant. Lately, many people have been talking about "brushing" (fake reviews/fake stories), and this book seems to be a victim of that too. Those interested can click to check it out. Synopsis: Female lead Meng Qianzhou, Male lead Fu Mingchen, Second male lead Fu Zechang. Meng Qianzhou discovers her fiancé Fu Zechang is secretly keeping a mistress and proposes breaking up. Later, after weighing the pros and cons, she decides to let him settle things with money. She agrees not to call off the engagement, but since she's bound to this marriage for life, she can't be too hard on herself, so she plans to use the money to find a minor celebrity. However, what she doesn't know is that a man has been coveting her for a long time. Fu Mingchen is Fu Zechang's uncle, but the two have a blood feud. To seize control of the Fu family, he forced Fu Zechang's father to death, forced his mother to remarry with him, and removed him, the eldest grandson of the first branch, from the family genealogy. What drives Fu Zechang crazy is that Fu Mingchen actually steals his fiancée. The hatred stemming from the murder of his father, the resentment over forcing his mother to abduct him, and the hatred over the theft of his wife—the love and hatred between these three people are destined to be inextricably intertwined!

A fallen heiress, to protect herself, followed her parents' thunderous pronouncements and seduced him, making him fall for her. She thought he liked her superficial best friend; otherwise, why would he ignore her despite her attempts to seduce him? Furious, she decided to stop seducing him.

The person she secretly loved seduced her, making her fall for him. He became insanely jealous of her lack of a legitimate relationship.
