A mix-up leads to a bride being sent in her place, and she becomes the contract wife of Gu Linyuan, the powerful head of a top global family.
She thought she would be nothing more than a pawn in the depths of a wealthy family, never realizing that this "mistaken marriage" would be the most dazzling turning point in her life, and the beginning of his willing surrender to love.
Su Wan was forced to take the place of her twin sister, who had run away from her wedding, to save a loved one. Trembling with anxiety, she stepped into the Gu family home. Waiting for her was her husband, Gu Linyuan, a man of immense power, as cold as ice, who regarded her without warmth and presented her with a frigid contract.
"Behave yourself, and get lost in a year." That was the only "wedding gift" he gave her.
The waters of a wealthy family run deep. Her mother-in-law made things difficult for her, his first love watched her like a hawk, and all sorts of unsavory characters waited to see her make a fool of herself. Su Wan gritted her teeth and endured it, hoping only to outlast the contract and leave with her money. She carefully concealed her talent for design, unaware that the man in the corner had already taken note of her resilience and lively spirit.
When her designs dazzled everyone at a charity gala, when she fought back against the rumors, when her drunken vulnerability accidentally sent her stumbling into his arms... Gu Linyuan's vaunted self-control began to crumble.
"No one gets to criticize my woman!" For the first time, he made an exception for her and declared his claim in public.
"Stay away from her!" The first time she made a willful demand, storms churned in his eyes. "As you wish."
Yes, very satisfied.
