On a rainy night, Lin Wan clutched the last chess piece left by her father before he fell ill, and saw clearly the manipulative chess game behind the bankruptcy of his company. In order to save her family, she stepped into the core of the business empire Lu's family, but was forced to sign a cold contract: becoming the substitute of Bai Yueguang in the heart of CEO Lu Jinshen for a period of one year.
He is a business legend, cold and meticulous, looking for his shadow due to a childhood obsession. She is a financial genius, with forbearance and tenacity, carrying the crumbling world for her loved ones. It was supposed to be a transaction in which each got what he wanted, but he accidentally discovered that the chess game she solved casually, the familiar fragrance on her body, and the sharp edge she showed in moments of crisis, quietly overlapped with the vague light and shadow deep in his memory.
When the real Bai Yueguang returns, the contract is on the verge of being broken. Lu Jinshen found that he had long been addicted to the fragrance of her tea late at night, and was used to her side by side at the negotiation table. And Lin Wan finally revealed the truth - it turned out that at the beginning of the chess game, she was the only unexpected variable in his fate, and she was also the "Tianyuan" he was really looking for across a long period of time.
This is a game that begins with a contract, and is also a true redemption. When all the disguises faded away, he held her hand and placed it on the chessboard of fate: "I am willing to lose this game. And you have never been anyone's shadow. You are the only destination I am sure of on the chessboard."
