[Clear-headed, money-minded gold digger vs. calculating super-sugar daddy]
Qiao Tingyue’s life goal is to marry a rich man.
Her best friend sets her up with a blind date, saying he’s rich and good-looking.
Qiao Tingyue dresses to the nines, eagerly looking forward to meeting him.
Then she mistakes the richest man in the country for her blind date.
The man proposes on the spot.
“I happen to need a suitable wife, and I think you’re just right for the job.”
He’s the richest man in the country! Isn’t that a hundred and eighty times better than some childhood friend?
“I’m willing! Very willing! We can get our marriage license right now!”
That night, Qiao Tingyue drinks red wine like it’s juice, then pounces on him in bed. “Honey, we have to fulfill our marital duties!”
When she wakes up the next morning, some lousy System binds itself to her.
System: Host, your husband, He Yanzhou, has a 95% chance of going bankrupt in five years.
Qiao Tingyue: Then what are we waiting for? Divorce!
But the icy tycoon refuses to let her go. “Mrs. He, divorce? Dream on.”
At the negotiating table, he dangles a tempting offer: “Anything you want, except a divorce.”
An astronomical allowance? Buying out an entire boutique?
Qiao Tingyue grits her teeth. “Fine. I’ll enjoy it while I can. Maybe the System is glitching.”
Her thoughtful System gives her a bankruptcy-prevention tip: make the tycoon fall in love with her.
To protect her long-term meal ticket, Qiao Tingyue is forced to take on the job of wooing the CEO.
Good morning messages? No good.
Heart-shaped coffee? A disaster!
Forced to call him “Honey” as part of the job, she sends the System into a frenzy: Warning! Emotional energy off the charts! Risk level plummeting!
When a gold digger meets a tycoon, and a System runs into a secret crush, who’s really keeping whom?
