As a gold-gobbling beast kept by the God of Wealth, Lin Yanshan spent every day hungry.
He complained about the miserly God of Wealth behind his back while scouring the place for the treasures the god had hidden away.
Then one day, so hungry he could barely think straight, he accidentally swallowed a family heirloom the God of Wealth had planned to give his bride.
To save his own life, he packed his bags that very night and fled to the mortal realm.
But halfway there, he grew ravenous, ran low on spiritual power, and fell.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself dressed in wedding robes, taking the marriage vows with a man.
But why did this man look so much like that miserly God of Wealth?

Qi Sichen was a famously frail prince of the Yu Kingdom. Two steps left him exhausted, and a gust of wind could knock him down.
Yet he held the key to the royal treasury and controlled the lifeblood of the entire Yu Kingdom.
Unfortunately, the husband he had brought home was a blockhead who only cared about money, not him.
He flirted subtly, and Lin Yanshan blushed. "After the prince dies, how about giving me the key to that treasury?"
He took off his robe and used tricks he'd learned in the pleasure quarter. Lin Yanshan helped him put it back on. "Even if your illness can't be cured, Your Highness shouldn't give up on yourself and freeze to death like this."
Qi Sichen couldn't take it anymore and tried tempting him with gold. Lin Yanshan's eyes lit up, and he threw himself into Qi Sichen's arms, not noticing the smile on the man's lips.

Everyone said the sickly prince wouldn't live long, and Lin Yanshan believed it year after year.
Who knew Qi Sichen wouldn't just survive, but would get stronger by the day?
This wouldn't do. Lin Yanshan was still waiting to take over that mysterious treasury everyone talked about!
So he secretly took the sickly prince's birth details to a fortune-teller for a reading.
The fortune-teller glanced at them, then grew so shocked and delighted he could barely speak. "Th-this is the rarest God of Wealth destiny in a hundred years!"
Lin Yanshan: !!!
Run!
