Raised Poor for 18 Years, the Cute Girl I Picked Is a Mafia Princess

share time: 2026-01-28 00:34:16

Gu Yan, heir to the Gu family in Beijing, was raised in poverty by his grandfather for 18 years to "temper his character"—wearing patched clothes, eating cold instant noodles, never having a hot meal. One day, he was eating cold steamed buns on the street when Su Tang, a soft-spoken campus belle, mistook him for a down-and-out student and took him back to her rental to cook noodles. Gu Yan planned to pretend to be poor for a meal, but found a mafia token in Su Tang’s drawer—she’s the only daughter of a retired mafia family, hiding in a regular university to escape a forced marriage. They hide their identities: Gu Yan fears being caught to inherit the family business, Su Tang fears her mafia background will scare away the "innocent" him. Until Gu Yan’s limited-edition watch gives him away and Su Tang’s enemies show up. After revealing their identities, they realize they’re both key pieces in their grandfather/father’s "game" and rival top players. When the pretense ends, will they face identity conflict or follow their hearts?
