An ambitious, calculating woman x a seemingly unassuming, secretly dark man / age gap / pseudo-upbringing
A long time ago, a friend asked, "If a domineering CEO proposed to you now and could help you climb more than one social class, but in exchange you'd have to be a stand-in for the woman he loves, would you agree?"
Xia Zhi: Hesitating for even one second would be disrespectful to money and irresponsible toward my future children.
Later, Xia Zhi met Zhou Muyuan and became Mrs. Zhou.
Xia Zhi: Thank you, first love.
After five years of marriage, Xia Zhi was thriving in the entertainment industry. In just one year, she won two prestigious awards.
Just then, the legendary first love returned to the country.
Xia Zhi's haters gritted their teeth with resentment while eagerly awaiting the spectacle of her being thrown out of the house.
But what they got instead was a post from Zhou Muyuan that went viral.
Zhou Muyuan: Which genius started this rumor? You made me laugh. As if it weren't strange enough to suddenly have a first love, apparently I was too poor to afford a plane ticket to chase her overseas, so I had to find a stand-in here at home. Mrs. Zhou, how about you raise my allowance by a hundred this month?
Below, influential figures from every industry liked the post and offered to pitch in a little as a friendly gesture. They couldn't offer more because they were broke too.
And Xia Zhi's comment appeared at the very top: Seen. Approved.
