[Love at first sight + aloof and abstinent + sweet romance + self-delusion + flirtatious tension]
When Su Yining was three, her mother ran away while pregnant. Growing up, her greatest wish was to find her birth mother and the baby she had taken away.
One day, while browsing online, she sees a photo of someone who looks just like her mother.
After doing some digging, she discovers that the woman is actually her boss’s mother?
Madam Gu keeps to herself, so she’s hard to meet, but her son, her boss, is right there in the same company and easy to see.
Su Yining decides to dive right in: first win over her boss, then enter his family home and investigate the truth.
Gu Yancheng notices that Su Yining, who used to be so serious and proper around him, has suddenly started sneaking glances at him.
Hah, women really are all the same!
He coolly waits for her to confess her feelings.
Instead of a confession, she saves his life.
“You can ask me for anything.”
Gu Yancheng waits with a straight face for her to use her good deed to pressure him into marrying her.
Who knew Su Yining would ask, her eyes sparkling, “I want to ask your mother to be my godmother. Would you be okay with that, Mr. Gu?”
Gu Yancheng: “…”
“My mother doesn’t need another daughter. She just needs a daughter-in-law.”
The abstinent, arrogant CEO Gu thinks he’s bringing home a wife. Only after the wedding does he realize he’s the only outsider in the family.
