Wild Roses Smell So Sweet

Jiang Yanping had always been levelheaded and self-possessed, but when he met Su Mei, a lively, charming beauty like a wild rose, he could no longer keep his cool.

He suspected that Su Mei had been sent by his grandfather to torment him: first she became his secretary, then his fiancée.

Everyone was in an uproar: The Jiang family of Yuncheng was immensely wealthy, yet its sole heir was going to marry a wild girl who grew up in an alley!

After the engagement ceremony, Su Mei received a text saying the seed money for her bakery had been deposited.

She looked at the seven-figure sum and beamed.

Jiang Yanping sneered. "Gold digger, I'm never going to fall in love with you, not unless I become best buddies with Nicholas!"

Su Mei didn't hesitate. She slapped him across the face and walked away.

It wasn't until they met again at an entrepreneurs' forum that Jiang Yanping understood: Su Mei might like money, but she only liked money she'd earned through her own efforts.

Onstage, she was dazzling and radiant, never hiding her brilliance.

Two years later, Jiang Yanping was hospitalized after a car accident.

When he woke up, he saw a familiar figure by his bed and was overjoyed. "You actually came back?"

"Grandpa Jiang offered me a fortune to come back. I'm not going to turn down money."

"Su Mei, I wasn't trying to mock you. I wanted to say..." Jiang Yanping trailed off.

"Please just say what you mean."

Jiang Yanping imitated a donkey's bray. "Hee-haw, hee-haw... hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw!"

Su Mei: "..."

Just then, Nicholas the Little Donkey, sunning himself in the front courtyard of the Jiang residence, sneezed five times in a row and looked bewildered.

"Bro, whatever makes you happy."
