Zheng Yunliu comes from eighteen generations of poverty, but her excellent grades earned her an exceptional place at an elite high school.
However, everyone at this school comes from generations of wealth. They're obsessed with keeping up appearances and making money, and look down on poor students from humble backgrounds.
To fit in socially, she pretends to be a wealthy environmental ambassador worried about the planet, a slow-living hiking enthusiast, a vegetarian, and an anti-consumerist activist.
In reality, seeing a designer collaboration she can't afford still gets her down.
On Thursday, she was walking down the street, on her way to grab some discounted hamburger meat.
Suddenly, a gorgeous madwoman ran up and grabbed her hand. "Hello, I'm the first in line to inherit the Cheng Group, but I was cast out. If you send me 50 and treat me to KFC, I'll..."
Though down on her luck, the woman had a stunning, radiant face.
Zheng Yunliu: "I'd be happy to give you money, but I'm sorry, I can't bear to see a chicken served up on the dinner table. Using one life to fill another life's stomach is so cruel."
The down-on-her-luck beauty: "I'm really a rich heiress! Believe me!"
Zheng Yunliu: "...If you're hungry, I can walk with you two kilometers to the supermarket and buy you a carrot salad. In this age of material abundance, scarcity is the only true luxury."

The down-on-her-luck beauty was clearly not right in the head.
She moved into Zheng Yunliu's home, crawled into her bed, and whispered, "Actually, you're a rich heiress too."
"We grew up together in the Cheng family. There were nine children of our generation, but we were closer than anyone."
Zheng Yunliu: ? Have you gone crazy from being poor?
"You've just lost your memory. I once swore to your birth mother that I'd support you all my life and never betray you."
"The day I take power, I'll hand it all over to you."
She eagerly climbed on top of her. "I love you so much. We have to die together, okay? Let's never be apart again."
As the woman made Zheng Yunliu's legs tremble, Zheng Yunliu listened to her ridiculous melodramatic rich-family story, her mouth filled with broken moans.
As long as she could put up with this woman's nonsense, she was a perfectly good bedmate.
But before long, the balance of power shifted, and the down-on-her-luck beauty really did become the head of the Cheng family, making headlines.
Then Zheng Yunliu suddenly discovered that her surname had originally been Cheng, and an accident years ago had left her with amnesia ever since.
Zheng Yunliu: So I really am a rich heiress???
