Sister story to A Newlywed's Promise | Reunited After a Breakup
[Spoiled and Defiant × Fatherly]
Blurb
Forced to inherit the family business, Xu Mei was miserable, so she often wandered over to the university next door in search of a little fun.
Nothing special, really. She just wanted to find a few innocent college boys and reminisce about the first love she had lost too soon.
That boy in the white shirt smiled so gently. He was just like him.
That boy in the white shirt was so poor yet so composed. He was just like him.
After a business meeting, the partner who had been so gentle and composed moments earlier stopped her.
“I heard I was dead?”
-
To escape the endless overtime, Xu Mei had just one wish:
Find a capable but poor man to marry into her family, someone who would work like an ox and a horse for her.
After her eleventh attempt to find a live-in son-in-law failed, her dead first love volunteered himself.
Looking at the man before her, now impeccably dressed in a suit and exuding an air of nobility, Xu Mei said coldly,
“I only want a penniless man. You're not good enough.”
His slender, pale hand pushed a contract in front of her.
“The property is yours, the company shares are yours, and every last cent in my bank accounts is yours.”
His gentle expression was just as it had been before.
“Now I'm poor again.”
-
After they married, Xu Mei was finally free. She invited a few innocent college boys out to celebrate.
That night, her slender wrist was held in place as her hand touched the brows that were no longer gentle.
“Are they like me here? Or...”
“Here.”
