“You want money, I want a person. Why not make our pretend relationship real?”
Su Jianxing is a struggling screenwriter with nothing but talent to her name, yet Fu Yanshen, heir to the Fu family and a top-tier star and award-winning actor, personally hands her a marriage contract.
“Sign for a year, and I’ll give you thirty million.” He looks down at her as if offering charity.
Su Jianxing needs the money to save her script, while the Fu heir and top-tier star needs someone to act as a shield.
“Three rules: separate bedrooms, keep it secret, and don’t fall in love.”
She thinks it’s just a transaction, but gradually discovers that the aloof actor’s carefully crafted image is falling apart:
Whenever she stays up late revising her script, there’s always a latte waiting at just the right temperature.
When a fellow industry professional frames her, they’re blacklisted across the internet the very next day.
When investors make things difficult for her, the entire project team is suddenly replaced.
The coffee flavor she casually mentions appears on set the next day.
Even stranger…
A discarded draft she tossed away ten years ago is locked in his safe…
“Fu Yanshen, the contract is over.”
She hands him the divorce papers, but he tears them to shreds.
The man pins her against the wall, his fingertip brushing her lips. “Screenwriter Su, you’ve broken the contract.”
“What?”
“The clause about my heart,” he says hoarsely. “It became void the moment you signed your name.”
