At their first meeting, Xie Fanyu was dressed to the nines for her own engagement party when a Maybach with black-and-white plates sped past and splashed mud all over her.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to. I hope I can compensate you."
The woman rolled down the window, holding a business card between her fingers as she smiled at her.
Xie Fanyu waved her hand. "It's fine. I'll just change."
The woman gave a mocking laugh, tossed her the card, and drove off.
Later, Xie Fanyu learned that she was a self-made B-coin tycoon in Hong Kong's upper circles: ruthless in her methods, yet alluring and stunningly beautiful.
The second time they met was in a Hong Kong villa district. Under the blazing sun, Xie Fanyu waited outside for three hours. Sweat soaked through her clothes, revealing the outline of her underwear. Her lips were so dry they were about to crack. By the time the housekeeper brought her before Qin Jingyu, she could barely stand. She collapsed to her knees between Qin Jingyu's legs. "Boss Qin, please save Fang Yao. I'll do anything."
A hand with red-painted nails gripped her chin. "I'm not interested in other people's fiances."

After quitting her job as an agent in Britain, Xie Fanyu returned to Shenzhen to become a teacher. She planned to marry her childhood friend Fang Yao and live an ordinary life. But then Qin Jingyu, the famous B-circle tycoon from Hong Kong Island, took an interest in her. The other woman said coldly, "I'm going to break you two up."
Only later did Xie Fanyu learn that Fang Yao was Qin Jingyu's half-sister. The two had fallen out as children, sowing the seeds of hatred. Qin Jingyu had only been using Xie Fanyu to torment Fang Yao.
How ridiculous. Two hundred phone calls a day, tracking her phone's location, planting eyes on her around the clock, giving her a mansion and luxury cars, hot kisses and desperate, tangled passion... And she had actually thought Qin Jingyu cared for her, at least a little.
Qin Jingyu really was a ruthless, cold-hearted monster who cared nothing for her own family.
Once she had achieved her goal, Xie Fanyu sent Qin Jingyu a letter: "Our debts are settled. Farewell."

After taking a year off, Xie Fanyu planned to return to her old line of work. But as soon as she left London's airport, her enemies were already watching her. Fortunately, someone was there to help, and she escaped safely.
"Thanks for saving me." Xie Fanyu was just starting to relax when she looked up and caught sight of half a familiar face, wearing that chilling, sickly smile.
Qin Jingyu stroked her snake-headed cane and glanced sideways at her, her voice cold. "Little girl, anyone you meet after leaving my bed is out to hurt you."
