In the prosperous city A, Huo Yichen, the helmsman of the Huo Group, is a business emperor that everyone fears. He is ruthless, precise and has never failed. He hides a secret in his heart: looking for the "warm light" that gave him a candy when he was a child.
Su Xiaonuan is an optimistic and innocent newbie in the workplace. The "small company" she works for is just a chessboard carefully arranged by the Huo family's mortal enemy, the Tengyun Group, and she is the chosen pawn to be sacrificed.
A well-planned business dinner, a "just right" hero saving a beauty. Huo Yichen tied Su Xiaonuan to his side with a "lover contract" that he could not refuse. He thought he had control of the chess game, but with every trial, he found that he was falling for this "chess piece" step by step.
When Su Xiaonuan discovered that her so-called "mistakes" and "accidental encounters" were all paving stones to hell, and that the "savior" who dragged her into the abyss was the boy in her childhood memories, trust and love collapsed.
Above the conspiracy, beyond the contract, when the warm light is determined to be extinguished, the emperor will know what his heart is. How will he recover this light that once lost will never come back?
