Xie Li was a genius. He taught himself C in middle school, made a simple game on his own in high school, and formed a team in college that became famous across the country.
Then he transmigrated, inexplicably becoming the substitute for someone's first love, forced into a contract marriage with a rich and powerful man.
Xie Li slowly formed a question mark: Do I look like your dad's substitute? :)
*
Xie Li hated capitalists most of all. In his previous life, even when his studio was in such dire straits that it could barely keep food on the table, he never considered selling his game.
As luck would have it, the man he had to marry by contract after being reborn was the powerful capitalist who had used every trick in the book to acquire their studio in his previous life. Xie Li had regarded him as his lifelong nemesis.
Xie Li rolled up his sleeves and declared: Fine, you're right here. Just wait and see how your daddy teaches you a lesson!
To the capitalist's face, Xie Li acted head over heels for him. In reality, he made it his mission to torment capitalists, repeatedly striking in secret.
When he learned the capitalist was allergic to pollen, he planted flowers all over the house.
When he learned the capitalist hated cilantro, he specially learned to make cilantro cake just to disgust him.
To make the capitalist go bankrupt, he even sacrificed his dignity, sneaking off to steal important documents while the man slept after they had been intimate.
But things didn't seem to be going the way Xie Li had planned. The capitalist not only refused to tear up their marriage agreement, but also started looking at him in a way that seemed increasingly strange...
Xie Li backed into a corner and watched as the capitalist approached, undoing his buttons. He shouted: Don't come any closer!
[Highlights]
1. The love interest isn't a capitalist, but a genuinely conscientious entrepreneur, the kind of boss I wish everyone could have.
2. The first-love substitute is a misunderstanding. The leads are each other's first love.
A friend's novel recommendation!
After Saving the Beautiful, Tormented Man by Qia Ge Yueliang

Lin Ji seemed to have been born in this life to atone for his sins.
At fifteen, he was told he was the child of the Lin family who had gone missing ten years ago, and he returned to the family.
At eighteen, the real young master of the Lin family came back. The genetic test results were completely different from those of three years ago. Lin Ji was just an impostor.
From then on, his nightmare began.
His eldest brother hated him for taking three years of his younger brother's life.
His friend said he was a fake and had no right to be his friend.
The person he loved was utterly disappointed in him for stealing someone else's life to gain wealth and status.
The real young master demanded that he repay his wrongdoing with his body.
The Lin family had been the ones to insist that he accept his identity as their young master, but when the mistake finally came to light, they all made him take responsibility.
When Lin Ji was twenty, the Lin family wanted to advance their business and decided to send him abroad to marry a man.
Lin Ji bought a ticket on the next available flight and left the country.
The plane crashed, killing all 156 people on board.
At the same time, the youngest son of the century-old Chen family, who had spent years receiving treatment abroad, finally regained consciousness.

On his first day as Chen Jingyuan, his older brother told him a piece of gossip.
The famous Second Young Master of the Lin family had died. The Lin family had gone mad with grief, and several families who had ties to the Second Young Master, including the Lin family, had begun fighting among themselves over him, as if they wouldn't stop until one side was destroyed.
Lin Ji listened silently, then commented, "You must have heard wrong, Brother."
You must have heard wrong. Those people had all wanted him dead, so how could they be fighting over him?
