A cold, restrained CEO who's secretly obsessed with all things fluffy × a theatrical master of deception who's pretending to be harmless but is ridiculously strong
On the first day after returning to the country to take up his post, Qin Siying meets Shen Chuji at a temple while praying for love. Her big, bright, beautiful eyes look straight into Qin Siying's heart.
This isn't Buddha answering his prayer. It's all been carefully staged by someone.
The drug developed by Qin Siying's company is one of a kind, and rival companies are green with envy. Shen Chuji is a spy sent by a competitor to steal the formula. Her sweet, girlish face perfectly conceals her dark heart, and in no time at all, she's got him completely under her spell.
Qin Siying falls hard without even realizing it.
When his mentor dies in a medical dispute, Qin Siying breaks down emotionally. Shen Chuji immediately offers him a loving embrace, keeping him company over drinks and in bed. After they sleep together, Qin Siying is consumed by guilt, so he promptly takes her to register their marriage, completing the whole process in one go. The scheming little black-sesame ball has successfully taken her place at his side, and the two begin a shamelessly happy life together.
But their happy days don't last. Clever Qin Siying soon realizes something is off about his little black-sesame ball. She's a spy sent by a rival company, and the illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family who's been living outside the household. The situation develops beyond Qin Siying's wildest imagination, and Shen Chuji turns out to be far more than that...
