[East Asian King of Jealousy x Independent Sweetheart]
[Blurb to be polished]
[The heroine is a love con artist, a naturally awful person who only cares about money. When they meet again, there'll be just a tiny bit of groveling from the hero. The heroine doesn't try that hard to win him back, though. I love seeing the hero do sit-ups and wash underwear with a cold expression.]
Ming Dai was blessed with a beautiful face that turned heads wherever she went. Rumor had it she came from a powerful family and had been spoiled rotten, which was how such a haughty rose had bloomed. She was the very picture of wealth and privilege.
And the heiress wasn't just beautiful and kind. She was talented in every way, too. One classical dance at the school gala was enough to set the hearts of every boy in school aflutter.
Then someone in the know poured cold water on their hopes: Give it up. The heiress is engaged to Jiang Wangyu, heir to the business empire of the Jiang family.
A busybody went up to Ming Dai and asked her about it.
Ming Dai smiled but didn't deny it.
Jiang Yuan, a poor student carrying his books, happened to witness the scene. He paused and looked up.
The girl's gaze was open and ardent, and her bewitching face certainly made the rumor convincing.
But Jiang Yuan's lips curled with scorn.
How come he didn't know he'd suddenly acquired a fiancee out of nowhere?

Jiang Yuan watched coldly as Ming Dai managed, with a seemingly effortless gesture, to leave those blind rich brats completely smitten and at a loss.
He secretly mocked the bunch of idiots for being so pathetic.
But then Ming Dai blinked her bright, watery eyes and asked him if he needed help.
His Adam's apple bobbed a few times. His gaze lingered, against his will, on her full, rosy lips.
He couldn't help wondering if they tasted as sweet as cherries.
A naturally awful person who seems to adore men but only cares about making money
x
A lovesick fool who seems cold and heartless but falls in love faster than anyone
The hero was cut off from all financial support while he was a student.
Theme: Love is knowingly walking into a trap of your own making.
