Su Bei loved Gu Xicheng for a full ten years. At school, he never missed a day of bringing him breakfast. After he started working, even when he was so exhausted he passed out, the first thing he did upon waking was go home and cook for him. He thought giving everything was what love meant, but a relationship in which you lose yourself is ultimately a joke.
The day the truth came out, Su Bei only wanted to know whether the other man had ever loved him, even for a single day. Instead, the man slapped a one-million-yuan check against his face. "You’ve been clinging to me this whole time because of my money, haven’t you?"
Su Bei was struck as if by lightning. He ran out of the house alone and didn’t come back all night.
Su Bei disappeared, but Gu Xicheng didn’t care. "He’s always been so dramatic. Don’t worry, he’ll come back on his own in a few days."
But when they met again, Gu Xicheng realized Su Bei had changed. Not only was there a handsome man standing beside him, but Su Bei looked at Gu Xicheng with less affection than he gave the cat at home.
Furious, Gu Xicheng said, "Su Bei, this is your last chance. Are you coming home with me or not?"
Su Bei smiled faintly. "Why would I go home with a piece of trash?"
Gu Xicheng pulled out another one-million-yuan check, but before he could throw it, someone tossed it away.
The night Su Bei learned the truth, he was in a car accident and was reborn. After being reborn, he decided to cut ties with Gu Xicheng for good and return to his own family.
To celebrate their young master's return, the Su family held a grand banquet. It was only when the two met again at the banquet that Gu Xicheng finally came to his senses. He had always thought he was keeping a beauty hidden away, never realizing that he was the one being played.
Gu Xicheng: "Why did you lie to me?"
Su Bei: "I was afraid you’d feel inferior because you were so poor."
Gu Xicheng: "..."
The check in his pocket spontaneously burst into flames.
