After her family goes bankrupt, Meng Weining is forced to “sell herself” to the richest family in the country, the Qin family. Her position: the legitimate wife of the Qin heir. Her KPIs: support her husband, raise the children, and hold down the fort.
On her first day at work, her nominal husband, Qin Muye, slams the table in protest. “I object to this arranged marriage!” Then he quits on the spot and flees overseas.
Meng Weining: Perfect! No annoying coworkers. The secret to a promotion and a raise is to win over the top brass, aka my in-laws!
Over the next three years, she turns her in-laws into her biggest fans and throws herself into the family business as if it were her own. Along the way, she also catches the eye of Shu Zhan, the handsome, wealthy chairman’s secretary and Employee of the Year.
Just as she is about to earn her freedom early with her impressive performance and consider accepting Shu Zhan’s invitation to “change jobs,” her playboy husband returns after vanishing for three years!
Watching his parents dote on his wife, and even seeing the family dog recognize only her and not him, Qin Muye completely loses it.
He corners her against the wall, the corners of his eyes red. “Meng Weining, I need to count for something in this family! I hereby declare your probation is over. Effective immediately, you’re getting a permanent position!”
