A contractor-side project manager unexpectedly marries her aloof client at first sight! A secret marriage turns into love after marriage, as a clearheaded heroine stands her ground against a powerful executive and navigates tension at work and in love.

After an accident, Chen Yi, a project manager on the contractor's side, suddenly marries Zhang Ze, a formidable, aloof client.

They agree on three rules in advance: keep the marriage low-key, keep work and personal life separate, and never let one interfere with the other!

At work, she's professional and capable, respectfully calling him Engineer Zhang as she bears the pressure and pushes the project forward as a contractor-side employee;

After work, they share a home and live together as a married couple. Defiant to the core, she specializes in stopping him from crossing the line!

Chen Yi knows exactly what's what. She has never forgotten the project failure from three years ago.

The responsibility report from that time left her carrying the blame for a whole year. She lost points and pay, pulled all-nighters on site, and swallowed every injustice in silence.

A private car to pick her up? Forbidden! A thoughtful breakfast? A violation! A gentle show of affection? All dismissed as client-side tricks!

In everyone else's eyes, President Zhang is decisive and brooks no opposition. But Chen Yi is the one person who has him wrapped around her finger.

He quietly showers her with affection and protection, indulging her and giving way at every turn. Yet he has his reasons and can't explain himself, so day after day his contractor-side wife leaves him speechless and frustrated.

The misunderstanding over the old case remains unresolved, while new project troubles and workplace conflicts arrive one after another.

When the long-buried truth finally comes to light, she'll face a career full of obstacles on one side and a tangled romance on the other. Where will their relationship go from here?
