In Shanghai in 1927, the ten-mile foreign market was full of neon lights, but there was also an undercurrent. The Su family's silk and satin shop fell into decline, her father was seriously ill and her brother was imprisoned. In order to save the family, {Su Qingyan} was forced to marry into the Shanghai business tycoon Lu family on behalf of her half-sister {Su Manni}.
The groom {Lu Jingchen} is the leader of the Lu Group. It is rumored that he is ruthless and powerful, but his legs were disabled due to an accident and his temperament has become increasingly withdrawn. This marriage, which everyone dislikes, is a desperate survival for {Su Qingyan}, and an exchange of interests for the Lu family.
On the wedding night, he looked at her coldly: "Just keep your peace, and I will take care of the Su family's affairs." She calmed down her sharpness: "I just ask Mr. Lu to keep his promise."
No one knows that {Su Qingyan}, who seems to be weak, has been studying with a reclusive business master since childhood. He is proficient in business strategy, cargo identification, arithmetic, and understands the calculations of people's hearts. Faced with the overt and secret struggles within the Lu family, the increasing pressure of rival foreign companies, and the secret interference of the Su family's old enemies, she used her slender body to navigate the treacherous shopping mall step by step.
The secret of the substitute marriage, the family's hatred, and the truth about her father's downfall gradually surfaced with her in-depth investigation. And the man in the wheelchair {Lu Jingchen} who was indifferent at first was also moved by her intelligence and tenacity in fighting side by side, from using her to being attracted, from alienating to protecting her.
When hatred and love intertwine, when business wars and conspiracies collide, can {Su Qingyan} support the Su family in this troubled world, uncover the real murderer, and join hands with {Lu Jingchen} to create a beautiful world in the turbulent times?
