Su Wan's life was like an ancient painting waiting to be restored, quiet and fragile, but with a tough undertone hidden under the temper of time. When the "Su Ji" decoration and restoration studio inherited by her family was in dire straits, a cold contract was handed to her.
Lu Zhiheng, a man whose name is enough to make waves in the business world of City A, is calm and decisive, like a walking iceberg. He proposed to her a marriage in which everyone gets what they need - he would provide her with shelter and save "Su Ji" from misfortune; while she would need to become his nominal wife, playing the role of a flawless "Mrs. Lu".
She thought this was just a deal, a helpless compromise in exchange for freedom for inheritance. She guarded her heart, breathing carefully in the wealthy life like a golden birdcage, trying to retain the last inch of her own world.
He thought it was just a plan, a chess game laid out to achieve a deep-seated purpose. He built high walls with indifference and alienation to isolate himself from all emotions.
However, when the ink fragrance of ancient rice paper meets the neon lights of modern cities; when she smoothes the wrinkles of history with a pair of skillful hands under the late night lights; when he catches a glimpse of the tranquility in the midst of the bustling city after playing games in the mall... The iceberg begins to melt, and beneath the solid ice lies the already turbulent undercurrent.
Is this marriage that began with a contract a shackle that binds each other, or is it the only boat that can save each other? In a world where glitz and interests are intertwined, can they cut through the fog and hear the truest voices in each other's hearts?
