Contract marriage + marriage first, love later + both leads’ first love + sweet romance + CEO pursues his wife (in the traditional wealthy-family CEO style)
A contract marriage with an agenda on both sides comes with a secret-marriage clause imposed by their unequal status. The pitiful Jian Rou secretly marries Han Sutting, the group CEO who rules the capital with an iron fist.
After they move in together, Jian Rou treats him with polite respect, never realizing that she has attracted Han Sutting’s wolfish attention day and night.
In public, he’s a cool and handsome iceberg. In private, he can hardly wait to keep his sweet wife in his arms and spoil her relentlessly.
Until their contract ends, until she sees the whole truth…
Later, Jian Rou becomes an internationally renowned designer. Han Sutting throws everything aside and gets down on his knees, begging her to come back to him.
But she’s no longer the helpless, unloved fool she used to be.
“Life is short. I don’t want to be your caged bird anymore. I want to shine with my own light.”
“That’s all right. I’ll keep waiting for you, forever and ever, loving only you.”
“Time will show you how much I love you,” he whispers against her ear.
