In order to investigate the truth about the Fu Group's embezzlement of public funds, trainee reporter Su Wan disguised her identity and sneaked into the headquarters. However, after obtaining key recording evidence, she was intercepted on the spot by the group's leader Fu Jingshen. During the confrontation in the alley on a rainy night, she accidentally learned that the huge debt owed by her father's bankruptcy and her stable education and career were all secretly helped by this rumored ruthless CEO.
In order to save her father's endangered small workshop and to find out Fu Jingshen's hidden past, Su Wan was forced to accept the deal he proposed - to be his "woman" for one year. Moving into Fu Jingshen's heavily guarded mountainside villa, she was wary of the conspiracy behind this contractual relationship, but at the same time, she was shaken by the tenderness he occasionally showed: warm milk late at night, tailor-made dresses, protection when her childhood sweetheart made things difficult for her... The cold contract gradually became filled with traces of heartbeat.
When the crisis of the Fu Group, the assassination of business rivals, and the professional ethics of reporter Su Wan collided, the trust between the two began to shake. Should you continue to stick to the boundaries of the contract, or admit the feelings you have already fallen into? In the pull between interests and sincerity, the secrets that Fu Jingshen had hidden for many years were gradually revealed, and Su Wan finally understood that this entanglement that started with the transaction was a "gentle trap" that he had planned for a long time from the beginning.
