Tao Zhi had struggled immensely to make it from the countryside to the big city through sheer hard work on the exams.
His family was dirt poor and couldn’t afford to send him to university, so he shouldered student loans and scraped by with part-time jobs.
He juggled classes and work, heading out early and dragging himself home late, pinching every single yuan until it screamed. Life was brutally tough.
Until a rich second-generation heir moved into his dorm as a roommate.
The roommate was fierce.
Bad-tempered, petty, and loaded with young master syndrome.
On his very first day, he bossed Tao Zhi around, making him wash his clothes, polish his shoes, attend classes in his place, and fetch his packages.
…And then handed him a thousand yuan as a hardship fee.
Tao Zhi, who had just been inwardly griping about how over-the-top this new roommate was: Huh???
The little money-grubber’s eyes lit up.
–
From that day on, Tao Zhi dutifully stepped up as the rich heir’s little lackey.
When the roommate ate, he passed the chopsticks. When he drank water, he twisted off the cap.
When the roommate bullied someone… he hung back, using his own scrawny frame to prop up the scene.
But he didn’t quite nail the act and got chewed out for it. That night, he rushed to the library and crammed through over a dozen novels, studying up on how to play the haughty, overbearing lackey.
One weekend.
Tao Zhi had just returned from the library when he spotted an uninvited guest in the dorm.
Dressed in a sharp suit, exuding a cold, imposing aura.
The man stood before the roommate, wiping blood from his knuckles. His gleaming leather shoe ground Tao Zhi’s god of wealth—his roommate—into the floor. “If I catch you stirring up trouble at school again, you’re out.”
Tao Zhi was petrified.
He stood there frozen, not daring to twitch.
Only after the man left did he scramble over to help his roommate up.
The roommate gritted his teeth, wiped the blood from his nose, and spat at Tao Zhi, word by word: “I order you to seduce my brother, toy with him, then dump him hard. Steal his company’s trade secrets while you’re at it. I’m seizing power—I want *him* gone!”
Tao Zhi: “?”
Huh?
Tao Zhi’s vision went black. Thinking back to the man’s icy demeanor, he collapsed straight to the floor and jabbed a finger at himself. “M-Me?”
