A Contract Marriage: The CEO Says One Thing and Means Another

This is a classic urban romance featuring a marriage before love and heartbreak before sweetness. The story revolves around a marriage that begins as a cold transaction. To secure his family’s position, business magnate Ling Yan proposes a marriage contract to Su He, who is in dire straits.

From the start of their marriage, they keep clear boundaries. Though they share a home, they are strangers to each other. Su He keeps to her role, facing the turmoil of the wealthy with composure and intelligence. Ling Yan maintains a businessman’s rationality and distance, convinced that everything is under control.

But as the one-year contract draws to a close, how will the two of them, both already in love, face their original agreement? When misunderstandings, trials, and buried feelings erupt all at once, can a marriage that began as a transaction become true love? This is a story of devotion, growth, and genuine love. Watch them tear up the contract and continue their love story for a lifetime.
