Tang Tang has spent her whole life trying to earn her parents’ approval, studying hard and striving to become the perfect daughter in their eyes, except when it comes to etiquette and poise.
At just twenty-five, she earned her doctorate and joined the National Institute of Cultural Heritage.
But none of it mattered. She was only a fake heiress, and now her sole use to the family was to bring them more benefits.

Pei Qingji was deep-sea fishing with friends when he got a call from Tang Tang.
This girl had never gotten along with him. Why would she call him out of the blue?
“Pei Qingji, I have to get married next month. Will you marry me?”
“What kind of act are you putting on now?”
“Then do you have any friends who are in a hurry to get married? Introduce me to one.”
“Tang Tang, you’ve got some nerve! Just you wait.”

Still wearing his slippers, Pei Qingji rushed over and found Tang Tang on a blind date.
“What’s gotten into you?”
“I’m looking for someone to marry!”
…
“You’re really going through with it?”
“Absolutely.”
“Fine, then I’ll marry you.”

After they married, Tang Tang heard that Pei Qingji had once had a secret crush on someone.
“I heard you had a crush on someone. Is she married? Do you want to go find her? Should we get divorced?”
Pei Qingji gritted his teeth and pulled her in front of the mirror. “Recognize her? That’s the heartless woman I had a crush on.”
