[Long-planned pursuit / Reconciliation / Marriage first, love later / Each other's first love]
Sharp-tongued but softhearted, seemingly sweet but secretly calculating x resilient, cool, fairy-like beauty
At university, Ji Tang and Zhou Yijing were the campus couple everyone agreed were perfect for each other.
Just as everyone thought they would get married as soon as they graduated, Ji Tang suddenly disappeared and cut all ties with him.
-
They met again at a bidding meeting for a medical equipment project from the Zhou family.
Former lovers reunited at work. Since several of the partners were Zhou Yijing's friends, they met up at a bar after the meeting, and everyone gossiped about how the young master felt seeing his old flame again.
"How do I feel? What do you think? A good horse doesn't turn back to eat old grass."
Everyone nodded. Their Young Master Zhou really had seen through it all, with a calm heart and grand perspective.
Then they received a wedding invitation addressed to the two of them.
"...?"
Well, that's quite a grand perspective.
-
To avoid the marriage alliance her family had arranged, Ji Tang had no choice but to find someone she knew well and marry quickly.
In a cafe, a man in a full custom-tailored suit idly flipped through the marriage agreement, his hand wearing a million-yuan Vacheron Constantin watch.
"Miss Ji, you may not know this, but I'm not in the habit of going back to an ex."
Ji Tang nodded. "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou. Neither am I. It's just a business arrangement. This is the best deal I can offer. If you're not willing..."
Before she could finish, the man skipped over the middle and signed the last page.
Surprised by how decisively he had agreed, Ji Tang asked, "When would be a good time to register our marriage? I'll request time off in advance."
Zhou Yijing tossed down the pen, put the marriage agreement away, and straightened the formal suit he had had pressed the night before. "I'm pretty busy. Today is the only day I'm free."
"?"
"Ji Tang, this time, you're in my hands."
"Just wait and see how I get my revenge."
-
His friends heard about it and asked what he meant by revenge.
Zhou Yijing played with his phone, looking completely unconcerned. "What would you know? This is a long-term plan."
"Put more money in her account than she can spend, so she has to worry every day about how to use it all."
"Then buy her a car, so she gets stuck in traffic for half an hour every day and has to wake up early."
"Oh, I should get her a comfortable mattress, too, so she sleeps so well she doesn't want to get up and ends up late."
Everyone: "...?"
Could the young master bring them along for this one-hundred-percent pure-gold revenge?
#No. #
#Also known as: "The Ex-Boyfriend's Revenge"#
#Ending: Revenge achieved... by getting himself tangled up in it#
