[The later-arriving male lead catches up and fights for her; the powerful man bows to love]
[Both are inexperienced, with a fake taboo romance: a long-planning man in power × a beautiful fake heiress who acts sweet and obedient]
When her family fell into decline, Cen Shuyu was brought to the Bo family by Bo Heng.
The man who had lit up her youth promised, “Stay with me, and you’ll always be the heiress everyone adores.”
He kept his word and indulged her in every way.
She thought it was love and offered herself to him, but he coldly rejected her: “You’re only my sister.”
Wounded pride drove her to run away.

When she returned to the country, she ran into the man who had never accepted her, Bo Heng’s uncle, Bo Siyan.
An accident led Cen Shuyu to discover the secret Bo Siyan had buried deep in his heart.
From then on, she was “forced” to become Bo Siyan’s little shadow, supposedly because only insiders, apart from the dead, could truly keep their mouths shut.
Later, the media photographed the proud, untouchable man kneeling on one knee to kiss Cen Shuyu’s fingertips.
The next day, he sent the media company a lawyer’s letter and sued them.
Everyone was convinced Cen Shuyu had used underhanded methods to fake the photo, and they all waited to laugh at her.
But the man faced the cameras calmly. “The photo didn’t capture half of Mrs. Bo’s beauty.”

Rumor had it that the Bo family’s new leader was cold and abstinent, with nothing on his mind but work.
Until one day, the CEO’s office door began displaying a “Do Not Disturb” sign for a few hours every afternoon.
Inside, sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows and fell across two entwined figures.
Cen Shuyu’s breathing was ragged. “Mr. Bo, this isn’t appropriate...”
Bo Siyan trapped her in the crook of his arm, his thin lips brushing the corner of her eye. “Whatever I do is appropriate.”
