I was the most dutiful canary kept by the young master of Nancheng. I’d always believed that enough small changes could eventually bring about a major transformation. That is, until Gu Xiao’s one true love asked to meet me.
The heiress gave me a cool once-over and handed me a check. “You must be Miss Ye, who’s been with A-Xiao for three years. You really are beautiful. Thank you for looking after him all these years in my place.”
“But you won’t have to trouble yourself anymore. The real deal is back, so the substitute should know when to step aside.”
A substitute? I suddenly found it funny. Raising an eyebrow, I said, “Miss Shen, I think you’ve got it wrong. Between Gu Xiao and me, he’s the one who’s the substitute.”
