In order to reject the marriage of a wealthy family, Shen Yan, an upstart in science and technology, is in urgent need of a "contract wife". The illustrator Xu Wei, who was burdened with his mother's huge medical expenses, became the "safest" choice in his eyes - everyone takes what they need and pays back twice a year.
Shen Yan pursues absolute rationality: the cold-toned home is clearly divided, and the daily routine cannot be disturbed. Xu Wei's appearance, like an untimely warm color, disrupted his delicately running world. Her painting tools "invaded" his territory, her confusion challenged his obsessive-compulsive disorder, and even the sight of her staying up late to finish the manuscript made him irritable and strange.
At a business dinner, she clumsily but sincerely offended his "previous" marriage partner. Shen Yan should have watched with cold eyes, but instead he protected her behind him by some strange combination of circumstances. The hot water he handed her when she had a stomachache, and the slight movement of his fingertips when she was frustrated, were all quietly breaking down the high wall he had built. When he saw the talented woman chatting and laughing with the curator who admired her, the unfamiliar sour feeling was called "jealousy".
However, the shadow of the "contract" fell unexpectedly. When the carefully woven lies were exposed, Xu Wei fell into the whirlpool of a "gold worshiper". For the first time, Shen Yan felt the panic of losing control. He used thunderous means to suppress the storm and defended her uncompromisingly before being questioned by the family. Seeing her holding on to her weakness, he tore up the cold agreement, hugged her in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "The contract is void. Xu Wei, what I want is the real you." President Bingshan, in this marriage that started with a transaction, was the first to fall, and was tempted beyond the bounds.
