A carefully planned substitute marriage and a glass of milk with something hidden in it leave Lin Wanwan becoming the bride of Gu Yan, CEO of the Gu Group, without quite knowing how it happened. When the drug takes effect, she flees in a panic and stumbles into the CEO’s lounge, where she overhears the cold-hearted tycoon’s sincere confession that he married only to produce an heir.
She thinks this is the beginning of a contract marriage, but the moment she opens her eyes, she finds herself bound to an Intangible Cultural Heritage Embroidery Inheritance System. With a graceful flick of her embroidery hoop and the flow of colored threads, she creates an exquisite Suzhou embroidery of “Twin Lotuses,” stunning everyone. But it also sends her life completely “out of control.”
When the Gu Group’s systems are attacked by hackers, she averts disaster with a flurry of her fingers, revealing her identity as a top hacker. At a fashion summit, a design she casually sketches has international luxury brands clamoring for it, lifting the veil on her identity as a mysterious designer. Even when an elder in the family mansion is gravely ill and beyond treatment, her family’s inherited medical skills bring them back from the brink.
Her stepmother and stepsister try to expose her as a fake Mrs. Gu, only to be face-slapped again and again by her hidden secret identities. Watching his little wife reveal one secret identity after another, Gu Yan goes from cold scrutiny to doting devotion, becoming a “wife-protecting fanatic.” “Honey, how many more surprises are you hiding from me?”
The dedication to preserving intangible cultural heritage, the twists of her many identities, and the deep love beneath their contract: Lin Wanwan stitches her way to a comeback, one thread at a time, and embroiders a sweet romance with Gu Yan that rises above all their schemes.
