Lin Yueyue jolted upright in bed, her chest heaving with fear. She looked down and pinched the soft rolls of flesh around her waist. They felt so real she wanted to cry. Taking a deep breath, she faced the chubby, baby-faced beauty in the mirror and made a vow: “This life, I'll either get thin or die... Then I'll find a rich man and lie flat!”

Lin Yueyue's eyes lit up with a “ding,” like a little rabbit spotting a carrot. She quietly sidled up to a man so handsome it was almost criminal and earnestly held out her phone with its QR code. “Sir, you see... I'm healthy and cheerful. How about giving me a chance?”
Lu Hanzhou raised his eyes, concealing the flash of amusement in them. His face remained blank. “I might not be able to.” Lin Yueyue thumped her chest. “That's okay! I have money... I mean, we can have a platonic relationship!”

Lin Yueyue (backing away in terror): “Wait! Mr. Lu, didn't you say you couldn't?”
Lu Hanzhou (slowly loosening his tie, his eyes full of a victorious smile): “Clause three of the contract says Party B may not question Party A's ‘capabilities.’ Your monthly salary of one hundred thousand doesn't include ‘platonic.’”
Lin Yueyue (clutching the blanket, heartbroken): “Liar! You promised I'd get to lie flat!”
Lu Hanzhou (leaning over her, his breath hot): “Mrs. Lu, your job is to lie down. Mine is to make sure you live a safe, happy life forever.”

She thought she'd hooked a rich husband, but she'd actually delivered herself straight into a wolf's den.
A married-first, fall-in-love-later romance with “lying flat” as its goal now begins from the start.
Looks good, come on
