Beauty combined with any card makes a winning hand. Played alone, it's a dead end.
Ye Chen was a mistake from the moment he was born. His parents doted on his younger brother and said Ye Chen's face was born to seduce people. After finally getting into a good university through his own efforts, he was ostracized for turning down a rich kid's advances.
He had beauty, but no power to protect himself.
People called him poor and pretentious, accused him of putting on airs, and said he never turned anyone away. He had no choice but to hide behind a cold, withdrawn facade, gradually becoming the person everyone loved to hate.
Shen Zening was unlike every rich person Ye Chen had ever met. Born into a top-tier family, he was confident and composed, gentle and refined, the very pinnacle of a wealthy young gentleman. Ye Chen thought people like him were born to be admired. Even when the young master favored him for a time, people mocked him, saying he was only fit to be the young master's plaything, and that marrying into a wealthy family was nothing but a foolish fantasy.
He never expected Shen Zening's celebrity father to put work aside and stand up for him at school, while his other father, the family patriarch, simply and bluntly gave him a huge sum of money. Shen Zening's younger brother also clung to him every day, affectionately calling him sister-in-law.
Shen Zening: "It's easy to marry into a wealthy family. Why not give it a try?"
Theme: You were wonderful all along
