Synopsis:

Northeastern-flavored, wealthy domineering CEO × Broke girl with big dreams

After graduation, Shi Zhen joined the vast ranks of the “graduated and unemployed.” Having been obedient her whole life, she suddenly wanted to rebel for once. So, without telling her family, she secretly rented a small place, claiming she was working while preparing for the civil service exam. In reality, she stayed in her rental every day writing scripts.

A month later, after facing more than a dozen rejections for her scripts and being so broke that she only had 100 yuan left, Shi Zhen made a post online documenting her broke life.

The post barely got any views. A few days later, it finally received its first comment:

Xie-ge: Sis, what part of the Northeast are you from?

A few days later:

Xie-ge: Sis, mind adding me on WeChat?

And a few days after that:

Xie-ge: Sis, how can you live on just 100 yuan? Let me order you some takeout.

And then yet again, a few days later:

Xie-ge: Sis, I’m seriously rich. Want me to transfer you 10,000 first to show my sincerity?

Shi Zhen: ………

Xie Qian — the one and only heir of the Xie family in Shulin.

After nearly thirty years of life, Young Master Xie entered a bout of existential crisis and suddenly began to miss his childhood in the Northeast.

Shulin has everything: gold on every corner — but not a shred of human warmth.

Xie Qian carries himself with integrity, but his father nags him constantly: “Righteousness has no place in business, and kindness doesn’t lead armies.”

He’s been saying this for over ten years — Xie Qian’s ears practically have calluses.

Outsiders say the Xie family’s heir stayed in the Northeast for a few years, and that thick Northeastern accent of his still hasn’t gone away.

Only those who know him well understand — hasn’t gone away? He never intended to change it!

It’s not just the accent he doesn’t want to change.

It’s also the fire in his heart that’s never burned out — despite all his years in the business world.

On his 29th birthday, Xie Qian had a subtle, uneasy feeling that that fire might finally be going out.

Then suddenly, he stumbled upon a post:

A girl determined to chase her dream — surviving an entire month on just 100 yuan.

To Xie Qian, 100 yuan disappears in the blink of an eye.

And so, he began spending money on that girl like his life depended on it.

In saving her, he was also saving himself.

Later on, Shi Zhen entered Xie Qian’s world.

Like a fawn who accidentally wandered into a dangerous forest, all she wanted was to escape.

But Xie Qian was like a wolf.

A wolf pushing the little deer forward — not to devour her, but to bring her into his den, to protect her properly.
