Wearing a wedding dress, Su Wan shows up at the civil affairs bureau and catches her boyfriend registering their marriage with her best friend. They mock her, saying she has no dowry and isn’t worthy of marrying into a wealthy family, then tear up her engagement agreement and humiliate her!
Furious, she turns and grabs the stern-looking stranger beside her, Gu Yanchen. “Sir, will you marry me? I can help keep your admirers away!”
She thinks she’s impulsively marrying an ordinary man, but the next day, a line of black Bentleys pulls up downstairs. When an assistant respectfully calls him “President Gu,” she realizes she’s married the CEO of one of the capital’s top conglomerates!
Her ex regrets it and begs to get back together? Gu Yanchen freezes his company’s accounts and gives him a cold look. “Touch my wife, and you’re dead!”
Nasty relatives come looking for trouble? One letter from his lawyer leaves them penniless. “You think you can lay a hand on my wife’s things?”
Her boss gives her a hard time at work? Gu Yanchen makes a surprise entrance at the company and shields her. “No outsider gets to bully my wife.”
Su Wan only wanted a marriage of convenience, with each of them getting what they needed, but Gu Yanchen’s overwhelming affection leaves her reeling. Gradually, she discovers that the aloof CEO has a secret identity beyond being a business tycoon: he is also the mysterious investor in the design world she has admired for years.
“Honey, did you plan this all along, just so you could marry me?”
Gu Yanchen pins her against the wall, his gaze burning. “From the moment I first saw you, you were destined to be my Mrs. Gu.”
From a whirlwind wedding at the civil affairs bureau to becoming the envy of everyone in the capital, Su Wan rises to fame in the design world and wins the heart of a wealthy CEO who treats her like a queen.
Bonus scene:
Reporter: “President Gu, there’s a rumor that you prepared a fortune worth hundreds of millions as your wife’s dowry?”
Gu Yanchen says coldly, “That’s a lie! I put all my assets in her name long ago.”
