Wen Zhixia, an ancient painting restorer who is as calm as water, believes that life will be like the scroll in her hand, being gently restored in silent time. However, the sudden collapse of the family business pushed her into a silent deal.
Fu Yanshen, a giant in the business world, is profound in his actions and ruthless in his methods. He is a person that countless people look up to but dare not approach. For a promise to his grandfather, he needed a wife, a marriage.
With a contract, two worlds that had nothing to do with each other were forced to merge. He gave her asylum and she became his nominal wife.
In a mansion as empty as a museum, they are strangers sharing the same roof. The silence at the dinner table, the passing of shoulders in the corridor, every breath carries a sense of politeness and distance. She used the patience of repairing ancient paintings to try to see clearly the true outline under his cold mask; in the ups and downs of the business world, he occasionally looked back, but could always catch a glimpse of the peaceful figure who was concentrating on repairing the broken scroll under the lamp.
When the dusty scroll slowly unfolds, when the cold contract gradually becomes warmer, the hidden secrets and past entanglements also surface. Will this marriage, which started out as a transaction, go deeper into jail, or will it end with Wen Xia's inkstone?
