In order to save her seriously ill mother and repay the family's huge debt, Lin Xi signed an agreement to have a flash marriage with Gu Yanci, the president of the Gu Group, whom she had never met before. He was a proud man in the business world, and he only married her to block the family's disputes and consolidate his inheritance rights; she was a down-and-out daughter who had fallen into the dust, and she only married him to seize the last life-saving straw, just to survive the one-year contract period safely.
On their wedding night, they were strangers in the same bed. He coldly set "cooperation boundaries" while she carefully played the role of "qualified Mrs. Gu". However, they broke each other's defense lines in unexpected encounters - he would quietly support her when she was in trouble and leave a warm light when she came home late from overtime. She also retreated from the initial timidity, and gradually regained her professional abilities with his secret support and her own tenacity, and counterattacked step by step to become a unique strong woman in the workplace.
When the contract was about to expire, and two million yuan in compensation and freedom were in sight, Lin Xi discovered that the heart that once only beat for survival had already fallen for him; and Gu Yanci, who had always regarded feelings as a bargaining chip, was willing to tear up the agreement and held her in his arms with red eyes: "Lin Xi, one year is not enough, I want a lifetime."
This is a marriage that started as a transaction, but through the daily sweetness and side-by-side growth, it turned into a two-way love. Watch how a cowardly girl transforms into a sassy queen, watch how an indifferent CEO transforms into a maniac who dotes on his wife, and unlocks the ultimate sweetness and pleasure of "marriage first, love later"!
