What Should a Spoiled Rich Girl Do After Going Bankrupt?

Jian Mingming is a pampered, dependent beauty.

Before turning twenty, he grew up in a wealthy family, indulged in good food and shopping, and never lifted a finger. He was completely useless and had never known hardship.

After twenty, his family fell into ruin. His father went bankrupt and had an affair, his mother fell ill, and his younger brother was still in school. Jian Mingming had to deal with all of it.

As a pretty, useless big brother, Jian Mingming tried waiting tables at a restaurant and broke dishes, swept the streets and suffered heatstroke, then went to a friend's house to cling to them for support, only to be kicked out.

Unable to do anything, Jian Mingming began to wonder if he would starve to death.

At last, he got himself dressed up and ready to work as a club host.

On his first day, he danced so hard that one of his shoes flew off, then spilled a drink all over a CEO's pants.

This job was so hard. Jian Mingming was fired, and as he sighed his way out the door, the CEO stopped him:

Come with me. I'll give you whatever you want.

Jian Mingming became the CEO's kept man and went back to his wealthy life of eating, sleeping, and having fun.

The CEO was wonderful in every way, doting on him and giving him whatever he wanted. The one thing he couldn't give him was a title.

No one else believed that a shallow, useless man like him could live off his youth for long.

At first, Mingming didn't care about having a title either. When he heard that the CEO was getting married, he told himself it was fine as long as the man was willing to spend money on him and love him.

But when he saw the CEO's engagement ceremony with his own eyes, he realized he did care after all.

In Cheng Yuan's eyes, Jian Mingming was a suitable lover. He was shallow, foolish, and money-loving, but also pretty, sweet, and knew how to behave.

Cheng Yuan was willing to keep him in comfort for the rest of his life.

Until one day, Jian Mingming stopped knowing his place. He demanded a title, sabotaged Cheng Yuan's arranged marriage, and brazenly made their photos public.

Cheng Yuan was going to teach this little lover who had gotten above himself a harsh lesson.

Jian Mingming was kicked out. Before leaving, he had a huge fight with Cheng Yuan and smashed the house to pieces.

He didn't care about having a title. He still had five million in his bank account!

Reader's notes:

1. Neither party in the arranged marriage has feelings for the other, and both have lovers. They went along with their elders' arrangement for the sake of maximizing their families' interests. The marriage was just for show, and they went through with an engagement ceremony.

2. A bittersweet romance, with the top pursuing the bottom, but no dramatic groveling. The top backtracks quickly, and is the type to wash underwear with a cold expression.

3. So much melodrama! So much melodrama! I wrote this for fun!
