To avoid her family’s watchful eyes, down-and-out heiress Lin Shu disguises herself as an ordinary underachiever. By a twist of fate, she signs a “dating contract” with aloof top student Gu Yanshen.
They agree not to cross the line, but he keeps pressing closer, protecting her, showing her favoritism, and declaring his claim on her... Whenever she calls him out for going beyond the agreement, he brushes it off: “It’s required by the contract.”
When her secret identities are revealed one after another, stunning everyone, he corners her against a wall, a shadow of certainty in his eyes. “The act is over. Now it’s time to settle what’s really between us.”
