[Hong Kong tycoon ✖️ ballet-world princess]
[Love at first sight + secret crush + wealthy families + creative liberties]
Hong Kong's business titan Huo Yanci is known in the business world as “Huo the Devil.” Cold and ruthless, he shows no mercy. At a chance encounter in Vienna's Musikverein, the wineglass in his hand shatters the moment he sees a white figure onstage. Su Wantang, principal dancer at the Paris Opera, has a beauty mark like a drop of ink, and her steps dance the city night's darkness to pieces.
For five years, he has plotted to win her over, from catching a fleeting glimpse of her at the Lausanne Youth Competition to drawing her into his arms on a stormy night. A three-year marriage contract is both a forceful conquest and a wholehearted surrender. She thinks he married her for profit, never knowing that he has tucked every turn and every drop of her sweat away in the deepest corner of his private safe.
When a ballet dynasty meets a financial empire, when an Eastern swan falls into a black-and-gold cage, a marriage that began as a calculation becomes the investment he takes the greatest pride in.
From the hero's perspective: love at first sight and a secret crush come true.
From the heroine's perspective: an arranged marriage that turns into love after marriage.
