Cheng Haozhong hadn't had a nightmare since he was seven.
Then one day, he jolted awake from a dream.
In it, his fiancee, whom he'd been engaged to for less than ten days, had swiped more than ten million Hong Kong dollars from him in just a few days.
Even worse, he seemed to be the reincarnation of King You of Zhou.
The more his seemingly honest Bao Si spent, the more enthusiastically the King You following at her heels applauded.
That couldn't be right.
In the darkness, Cheng Haozhong clutched his racing heart, stunned as if struck by lightning.
But he never expected the nightmare to come true so soon.
One bill after another for her extravagant spending landed on his desk.
Cheng Haozhong, the peculiar Hong Kong tycoon who fobs off even his father's birthday with longevity noodles to avoid spending money,
actually gritted his teeth and paid a fortune to hire a private detective to investigate his fiancee.
Fang Huitong.

Li Shuying received a call from an unknown number.
The caller claimed that if she didn't do as he said, he'd tell the Cheng family the secret of her pretending to be the eldest daughter of the Fang family.
With no choice, she obediently bought him a suit, a tie, and a designer watch.
But when it comes to men, you can listen to what they say and leave it at that.
It doesn't count.
She was exposed anyway.
But unexpectedly, after that, Cheng Haozhong treated her better and better.
He even...
really made her the Fang family's heiress.
