The Contract Is Up, but the CEO Refuses to Log Off

To pay for her mother's medical care, down-on-her-luck designer Su Ruan signs a marriage contract and marries Jiang Lin, a coldhearted tech mogul.

The agreement is clear: they won't interfere in each other's lives, the marriage lasts one year, and when the term is up, she leaves.

But no one told her...

That living under the same roof, he'd develop an abnormal heartbeat over a bowl of porridge she accidentally burned;

That he'd quietly memorize all her preferences, then stubbornly claim it was “algorithmic recommendations”;

That one night, drunk, he'd clutch her wrist and murmur, “Don't go...”

Su Ruan always thought she was nothing but a “tool” for him to inherit the family business, until one day she found an old design in his study, remarkably similar to her style, along with an anonymous text message: “When you smile, you look a lot like her.”

Heartbroken, she prepares to leave, but he yanks her back. “Who said you could go?”

Jiang Lin never imagined that the carefully calculated life he'd built would come crashing down because of her.

He tries to use algorithms to analyze his feelings, but gets only one answer: System error. No solution found.

Later, at the launch of his new product, Jiang Lin destroys the contract in front of everyone.

On the big screen, countless data points finally converge into her image and a beating heart.

He says, “This is the only algorithm I've ever surrendered to. Its name is falling in love.”

Su Ruan smiles faintly and hands him a new contract.

“Mr. Jiang, this time I'll draft it. First clause: no more using algorithms to love me.”
