You Left Me for Money

1. The heir was critically ill. To keep the family fortune from falling into the wrong hands, the wealthy Li family urgently brought back Liang Cheng, the legitimate son who had been driven out of the capital years ago.

At the lavish reunion banquet, however, an unexpected farce unfolded.

Zhu Xingyi, wife of the former heir and Liang Cheng's sister-in-law in name, suddenly stumbled into the arms of the future head of the family, right before everyone's eyes.

2. Everyone fell silent.

Zhu Xingyi looked up, panic written all over his face, helpless and pitiful. "I... I've been drugged. Could you take me away?"

Liang Cheng gazed down at him for a long while.

"Zhu Xingyi, you're still terrible at seducing men."

He lowered his head as Zhu Xingyi looked at him with feigned hurt, and whispered, "I saw everything."

Zhu Xingyi had taken the drug himself.

3. But Liang Cheng still took Zhu Xingyi away.

They spent the night together.

He casually asked Zhu Xingyi, "Want to marry me? I'll give you money."

Zhu Xingyi said, "Sure."

Liang Cheng was cold and distant. "Don't get the wrong idea. This is just a contract."

His aging father was eager for him to marry and have children.

But Liang Cheng had never forgotten the humiliation and pain of being driven out with his mother all those years ago.

How could he possibly obey?

He was looking forward to seeing his father's reaction when he learned that Liang Cheng had married his sister-in-law.

4. He was marrying Zhu Xingyi just to put on an act, not because he still had feelings for him.

But Zhu Xingyi still smiled and said, "Sure."

Money really was a wonderful thing, Liang Cheng thought mockingly.

He still remembered how Zhu Xingyi had left him without looking back for the sake of money, coldly declaring that he would marry Liang Cheng's older brother.

And now, hadn't he come meekly back to Liang Cheng's side?

* A new love interest story, but the ex-husband has no name.

* The title and blurb may change, but the premise won't.

* A chaotic, melodramatic mess. The top only loves the bottom, and the bottom only loves the top. They're both hopeless romantics. This author is a sucker for this stuff, so please indulge me!
