Two wealthy families | Size difference | Perfect physical compatibility

Fake sweet girl, real ambitious schemer x Fake poor boy, real man in charge

Fiery, demanding heiress x Possessive, obsessive, dangerously unhinged man

Nan Chu was renowned in the wealthy circle of American students as a top-tier heiress. Her face and figure often made people forget that she was also a top student at MIT.

But she stayed single for one reason and one reason only.

The Nan family had eyes everywhere in the United States. If she dared to date, they’d ship her straight back to China.

Nan Chu was still single at twenty-three, and the society girls had made fun of her for years.

On a whim, just before her master’s graduation ceremony, Nan Chu hired an exceptionally handsome mixed-race man to pose as her boyfriend.

Kairos was 191 centimeters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and an eight-pack. He had a high nose bridge and looked exceptionally well-endowed. He was also a Harvard graduate. His family had fallen on hard times, though, and he’d been forced into this line of work to support them.

Nan Chu only paid him for three hours, but Kairos threw in a night of passion for free.

So when Nan Chu’s flight back to China took off the next day, she was still lying in Kairos’s arms.

They were astonishingly compatible, so Nan Chu decided to rescue him from his circumstances.

She chartered a plane to take Kairos back to China and settled him in a luxury penthouse she owned but rarely used.

At first, Nan Chu couldn’t get enough of him. She would drop by the apartment every so often and spend three or five days curled up with him.

Six months later, she gradually got tired of him.

Who could put up with five days a week, seven times a day?

Besides, this man had no sense of what it meant to be her kept lover. He clung to her every day, calling her his wife, and even wanted to check her phone and ask who she’d met that day.

So Nan Chu transferred thirty million to him in one go, along with lifetime use of the penthouse as a breakup settlement, then blocked him everywhere.

She left him with one last message: “My family won’t let me be with a poor boy.”

Then she ran.

A month later, Nan Chu accepted her family’s arrangement to marry into the Cen family. Even though neither of them showed up on their engagement day, she was still tied up and stuffed into the new home the Cen family had prepared for them.

For a whole week, Nan Chu didn’t see Cen Du, the man who was her fiance in name only.

At a party, a frenemy she’d never gotten along with covered her mouth and asked, “The Cen family’s young heir has been back in the country for two weeks. How are things between you two?”

“Pretty good.”

“Then why didn’t you come with him?”

Following the frenemy’s diamond-encrusted fingertip, Nan Chu saw Kairos in a bespoke suit, surrounded by people at the center of the room. He raised his glass and met her eyes, smiling.

He parted the crowd, came to Nan Chu’s side, and wrapped an arm around her waist. In the voice she knew better than any other, he said, “Long time no see.”

That night, Cen Du pinned her down and made her fulfill her wifely duties.

Partway through, he suddenly stopped, casually unlocked her phone, and asked in a hoarse voice, “Wife, when are you taking me off your blacklist?”

A notification popped up at the same time: 300 million yuan deposited, marked as betrothal gifts.

Not a yuan more or less, exactly ten times the thirty million she’d given him.

Nan Chu thought through her tears: Is it still possible to run?
