Jiang Yu grew up with his grandmother on an island. After she passed away, he left the island alone.
The world beyond the island was full of wonders, and his kindhearted friends were ready with advice: It's fine if you can't afford food, and it's fine if you have nowhere to stay. You're so pretty, you can totally make a living by being a kept boy!
Jiang Yu was bewildered. Could he be a kept boy doing anything he wanted? Could he go to school and learn to read and write? 0 0
Grandma had said that only education could change your fate. Her one last wish before she died was for him to go out into the world and study.
That settled it. He'd become a kept boy and make a fortune!

Three years ago, an accident left Ji Tingzhou, once decisive and formidable, without the use of his legs. Confined to a wheelchair, he lost all interest in running his business empire.
His mother urged him again and again until Ji Tingzhou finally agreed to go for a drive and clear his head. But as soon as the car left the villa grounds, they encountered a clumsy little gold digger who shut his eyes and threw himself at the car.
When the little gold digger opened his eyes, he eagerly began making demands: food, drink, a place to stay, and a chance to go to school.
Ji Tingzhou was so angry he laughed.
His car hadn't even touched the kid, had it?
But in the end, Ji Tingzhou still sent Jiang Yu to high school. Not for any particular reason. He just wanted to see how this little gold digger planned to put on an act.

Jiang Yu wore a clean, plain school uniform and came to ask him about a math problem with complete seriousness. The wide collar hung from his fair shoulder, almost slipping off.
Ji Tingzhou sneered. As expected, the little gold digger was a schemer who had quickly figured out exactly what he liked.
When Jiang Yu noticed that Ji Tingzhou was often cooped up in his room, he took the initiative to push his wheelchair outside for a change of scenery. Before long, he was panting with exhaustion, a deep blush spreading over his pretty cheeks.
Ji Tingzhou scoffed. He would never fall for a little gold digger like this. It was all just one part of his plan.
Later, Jiang Yu gazed at Ji Tingzhou with shining eyes and asked expectantly, "Sir, you've got your prosthetic legs now, and I've been accepted into a prestigious university. Does that mean this relationship of ours can..." end?
"It can."
Ji Tingzhou's eyelids lifted slightly.
He grabbed Jiang Yu by the waist and set him on the desk, then slowly undid the buttons at his school uniform collar, his gaze settling on Jiang Yu's smooth collarbone. "You've been trying to get your hooks into me for so long. It's time to move on to the next stage."
Later.
Jiang Yu straddled Ji Tingzhou's lap, sweat and tears sliding from the corners of his eyes.
Through tear-blurred eyes, he thought: This can't be right. Nobody told him there was a stage like this to being a kept boy! QAQ
