Was she pushed out of the spotlight? Humiliated? She turned the tables and became the entertainment industry's fiercest comeback queen!
The night Lin Yueyao was drugged by her agent, she stumbled into the arms of Lu Hanchen, the president of an entertainment empire. She rose on tiptoe and kissed him, pleading for help, but all she got was his icy scrutiny and the words, “Plenty of women want into my bed. You’re the stupidest one.”
Just as she was losing hope, a contract appeared before her. He forced her to sign a marriage agreement, supposedly to comfort his gravely ill grandmother. In return, she became his live-in personal assistant, enduring his absurdly high standards and constant nitpicking.
Everyone in the industry laughed that she was the most docile canary at President Lu’s side. They had no idea that every night, he would pin her against the door and rasp, “You’ve been calling me your husband for ages. When do I get promoted to the real thing?”
With her golden finger, a photographic memory, she committed all his habits to heart, transforming herself from an assistant he constantly criticized into the sharpest weapon in his career. With the favor of an award-winning actor and the support of her best friend, she also began picking up the pieces of her shattered dream of stardom, one step at a time.
At last, she held the Best Actress trophy in her hands, only for their secret marriage to be exposed. The entire internet accused her of scheming her way to the top. At the awards ceremony, she clutched the trophy, tears glimmering in her eyes. “His grandma threatened him with her cane until he married me.”
The next second, Lu Hanchen played a recording of his grandmother for everyone to hear: “You little brat! If you don’t marry such a wonderful girl, I’ll adopt her as my daughter and make you call her Auntie!”
The internet erupted. Only then did everyone realize she hadn’t married up at all. It was the president who had gone to extraordinary lengths to trick her into becoming his wife.
