She is Su Wanwan, the daughter of a once-wealthy Su family. An accident left her unable to speak, and her gambling-addicted father “sold” her to Lu Tingchen, president of Empire Group, to settle a million-yuan debt.
He is a cold and sinister business emperor. Because his grandmother was gravely ill and “needed a granddaughter-in-law to bring her good fortune,” he casually signed a contract with this quiet, gentle woman, never suspecting he would lose his heart to her silence.
On their wedding night, he tossed the contract in front of her. “Play the role of Mrs. Lu. Don’t expect feelings you have no right to.”
But when his white-moonlight sweetheart made things difficult for her and his rival in love framed her, he instinctively protected her, coldly warning everyone: “Who dares touch my woman?”
She thought she could leave once the contract expired, but one rainy night he pinned her in a corner, possessiveness churning in his eyes in a way she couldn’t understand. “Su Wanwan, you signed a contract for life. Where do you think you’re running off to?”
From a cold contract to a passionate entanglement, when the woman who couldn’t speak finally found her voice again, the first thing she said was, “Lu Tingchen, I think I’ve fallen in love with you.”
