There's been a rumor going around Ancheng lately. They say the granddaughter who inherited the Yun matriarch's fortune of hundreds of billions has returned from some remote, impoverished mountain village.
There's an even more sensational rumor: before she passed away, the Yun matriarch arranged a marriage for her granddaughter to that unmentionable member of the Fu family, the family's true head.
People say rumors can't be trusted.
How could that possibly be true?
Actually... there's nothing impossible about it.
To inherit the fortune, Xu Huan married Fu Chuji in a two-year contract marriage.
Their wedding was grand and lavish, making everyone else green with envy.
The wealthy wives of Ancheng were jealous, yet looked down on her background.
Everyone knew Xu Huan had only been able to marry Fu Chuji because the late Madam Yun had once helped him and asked him to do so. Fu Chuji had never wanted this marriage.
At a dinner party, the other wives started showing off how much their husbands doted on them.
Mrs. Liu of Nantian Shipping said sweetly, "Oh, my husband bought me several bags yesterday, limited editions, too. They were so hard to find, and cost hundreds of thousands altogether. I told him I didn't want them, but he insisted."
Xu Huan: "I'm rich. I can buy my own."
Mrs. Gong of Shengchuan Hotel sighed fondly, "My husband just bid over ten million for a necklace for me. He says he'll bid on a matching bracelet and earrings at the next auction!"
Xu Huan: "I'm rich. I can bid on my own."
Mrs. Lin of Dongfang Shipbuilding complained, "Honestly, your husbands treat you so well. Mine doesn't understand romance. He always gives me antiques and old paintings. I don't understand them, so they just sit in an entire room."
Xu Huan's eyes lit up. "My husband likes antiques and old paintings, too. Mrs. Lin, if you don't like them, why not give them to me? I'm rich!"
Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Gong, and Mrs. Lin: ...
At the banquet, Xu Huan single-handedly defeated the whole crowd of women.
The story soon spread.
That night, when Fu Chuji pinned her down in bed, he chuckled, "Mrs. Fu, if you're so rich, what do you need me for?"
Xu Huan paused, then squeezed his strong waist and its eight-pack abs. "...For sex?"
