A Bare-Bones Romance

√ Part-time cleaner / working queen x useless, wicked, pampered princess During her sophomore year, Zhou Sier moved off campus. One day, after a party, a friend called a cleaner to come over. The cleaner was twenty-eight, with a 99% positive rating. She just didn't talk much, and worked at double speed. Pampered and spoiled, Zhou Sier hated organizing. She asked the cleaner if she took private jobs. When she woke up, her room was spotless, but all she had was the woman's name and Alipay account. The next day, she saw the cleaner who'd come over late at night at school. The woman had transformed into her senior's girlfriend, no longer quiet and reserved, but the center of attention. Zhou Sier didn't know why she felt so upset. Then she overheard her senior sending the woman the balance of her fee in the restroom. She was a fake girlfriend for hire. Zhuang Jiawen was short on money and would do almost anything. She had plenty of repeat customers and selectively picked clients who were rich and stupid. Fake girlfriend, creditor, ex-wife... she'd even been a little kid's mom for a day. The new neighbor across the hall was a rich young lady who paid generously, never haggled, and was happy to book off-platform. Even though Zhou Sier had paid without a fuss that day, Zhuang Jiawen still didn't think much of her. Too spoiled, too many questions, too much trouble. Zhou Sier: "Here's a contract. I want you to be my girlfriend for six months." Zhuang Jiawen: "To deal with your family?" She had experience with coming-out gigs. One had nearly landed her in the hospital, but she'd gotten a hefty compensation payout. Zhou Sier: "Something like that." She didn't tell Zhuang Jiawen that her parents indulged her in everything. She was simply curious about Zhuang Jiawen herself. Nothing was more fun than solving things with money. - * The one being pursued pursues the other, with a little coercive romance * A cool, tough woman who's never known sweetness x a pampered princess who's never suffered and has plenty of tricks up her sleeve * To everyone else, they're two peas in a pod; to them, it's a card reader meeting an unlimited black card * 1v1, no exes, older woman [Notice] The bottom is spoiled and nasty, and will stop at nothing to get the top.
