Background:
At a matchmaking meeting, Zhao Beixun, eldest son of the Nanzhou Beifang Architecture company, falls for her at first sight and pursues her relentlessly.
She's just an ordinary wage earner, and their family backgrounds are worlds apart. In a fit of impulsiveness, she agrees to his proposal.
They marry in a flash after meeting through matchmaking, but he falls deeply in love with her, fiercely protects her, and gives her all the affection and respect she could want.
She goes from resisting and brushing him off to gradually falling for him. Only after they marry does she learn that the impulsive decision she made was, in fact, destined.
The contrast between their public and private personas:
All of Zhou Buyu's friends and family say she's lucky to have married such a mature, dependable husband. Only she knows that Zhao Beixun is scheming and clingy.
Everyone in the design department at Nanzhou Beifang Architecture knows that President Zhao married a gentle, considerate wife. Only he knows that Zhou Buyu wants to be his queen.
In public, they're a model couple, perfectly in tune with each other. In private, they're a pair of bickering lovers who can't live without one another. The husband leading and the wife following is just for show; in real life, she leads and he follows.
