[Sweet, well-behaved darling x scheming fox]
Wei Yu recently discovered something huge: she wasn't her parents' biological daughter!
The only daughter of the Wei family of Shanghai, Wei Yu was born lucky. Her family was one of the four great families of Hong Kong, her parents were devoted to each other, and her older brother protected her. Though she had been frail and sickly since birth, her family spoiled her to no end.
Because she was often sick, she needed a medical checkup every year. This year's checkup was different from the ones before. Wei Yu was afraid of needles, so her whole family went in for blood tests with her.
Looking at her own medical report and her family's blood types, Wei Yu knew that no matter how the genes were arranged, type A plus type A could never equal type B.
So Wei Yu decided she needed to make a plan for the future.
She'd never been interested in Li Siran, who had pursued her for so long. Now, though, she thought that since he liked her so much, he might make a good fallback option.
You can't put all your eggs in one basket. Wei Yu also set her sights on Li Siran's friend, Duan Qingyou.
They said Duan Qingyou came from an ordinary family, but was exceptionally capable and a graduate of a prestigious university. His future looked bright. Wei Yu was taken with his promising prospects, so she decided to win him over too. After all, the two men were starting a business together. One was good, but two were even better.
Duan Qingyou was a classic example of a poor student who made it into a prestigious university through hard work. After graduating, he joined his good friend in starting a business.
He'd expected entrepreneurship to be dull and tedious. He never expected a soft, lovely presence to suddenly enter his life one day.
At first, Duan Qingyou wasn't fond of her. The girl was delicate and spoiled, and her poor health made her a hassle. Duan Qingyou hated hassles most of all.
But she wasn't there to see him, so he had no reason to say anything.
Before long, though, Duan Qingyou realized something was off.
Wei Yu was supposed to be pursuing Li Siran, so why was she always looking his way?
Why did she ask so sweetly, in her softest voice, "Brother, would you like some?"
Duan Qingyou replied coldly, "No."
At first, he thought he could keep it up forever. But then he saw the girl who called him Brother move on to a third target, asking him in the same sweet voice she'd used with Duan Qingyou. At last, Duan Qingyou couldn't sit still.
In the break room, Duan Qingyou looked at her and said, "What snacks did you bring today? Why didn't you ask if I wanted any?"
Later, this man who hated hassles said, "Wei Yu, my future is brighter than theirs. Choose me, okay?"
A shocking piece of news recently broke in Shanghai: the Wei family's little princess wasn't their biological daughter!
Everyone expected a case of switched-at-birth daughters, but the Wei family was completely calm.
Wei Father: "You mean that? We knew ages ago."
Wei Mother: "We're still family! Besides, the son I found is dating my daughter. That makes us even closer! They're a match made in heaven!"
Wei Brother: "...That's true. I wish them well."
Wei Yu had feared the worst, but it never came to pass. She might be a fake heiress, but the boyfriend she found was a real young master.
Duan Qingyou had a lonely, hard life growing up, but talent and hard work had helped him make something of himself. He'd thought that was all life had in store for him. He never expected fate to play a joke on him and send a princess to save him, landing right in his heart.
At twenty-five, Duan Qingyou wasn't overjoyed to learn that he was actually the Wei family's biological son. Instead, he thought that only with this status could he be worthy of Wei Yu.
They really were a "match made in heaven."
