Cen Kaiyan, an orphan from a wealthy family, has lived like a transparent person in the Cen family for nineteen years. Her parents died mysteriously, and her family property was taken away by her uncle Cen Yangeng. She stayed under the shelter of others and hid in silence. Until her cousin Cen Kaixin set up a vicious plan to escape from the marriage, trying to ruin her reputation and make her a pawn in the marriage.
She did not cry or escape, but calmly caught the poisonous fruit, turned around and reached a dangerous agreement with the person of the engagement - Song Xiaoyao, the feared "cold-faced king of hell" in the Heshi business community.
Marriage by contract, for a period of three years.
He gave her power and connections to help her regain her family property and find out the truth behind her parents' tragic death;
She gave him a legitimate "Mrs. Song", a business partner with whom he could have deep ties in the future.
From then on, under the mask of the meek and cowardly orphan, there was a hunter who was making every move.
She wants to take back everything that belongs to her in the huge chess game of false family affection, the presence of wolves and the marriage of wealthy families.
And Song Xiaoyao gradually discovered that this "contracted wife" who he originally regarded as just a pawn had an unknown tenacity hidden beneath her calmness and sobriety.
They started with calculations and transactions, but unexpectedly became the only people who could walk side by side on each other's darkest road.
Who is the final winner in this chess game in the name of marriage?
One sentence summary: Marrying on behalf of her sister, she thought she was a chess piece at the mercy of others, but she became the only inviolable "general" on his chessboard.
Core highlights:
Ultimate substitute and counter-kill: The substitute is a substitute at the beginning, but it is not a traditional sadomasochism. The heroine quietly grows up in a desperate situation, and finally wins the unique respect.
