The Fake Heiress Climbs the Social Ladder, and CEO Gu Lets Her Flaunt Their Child

Xie Shiyi was once the dazzling heiress of the Ji family, cherished by her parents and engaged to Gu Chenglin, heir to one of the wealthiest families in the country.

Then her biological father exposed the truth: she was merely a fake heiress who had taken the real heiress's place.

A cold notice of annulment arrived, and overnight she fell from the clouds into the mud.

To survive and pay the astronomical medical bills, she bet everything on a carefully planned night with the “second young master of the Gu family.” She succeeded in conceiving, only to hear that the second young master, Gu Qixu, had died after falling into the sea.

With her back against the wall, she clung to her only bargaining chip, “the second young master's posthumous child,” and turned the tables, climbing back into the upper echelons of the Gu family.

Everything went as she hoped. The only person she had to watch out for was her former fiance, Gu Chenglin.

Gu Chenglin finally realized that she had never been after a fleeting affair that night. She had wanted a child.

An ambitious woman like her... was quite a match for him.

His voice was low and seductive. “Gu Qixu is dead. Why not say... this child is mine?”

Xie Shiyi's gaze was as resolute as a blade. “I will never have a child with a man I don't love!”

He smiled, his expression chilling to the bone. If that was the case... then the secret of that night would never need to come out.

He wanted the child who carried his blood, not her.
