[A chaste, calculating, domineering CEO VS a bright, bold heiress who loves and hates without reservation]
[Marriage first, love later | The second male lead wins | Sweet romance | Age gap | Both leads are inexperienced]
Xie Zhiyi awakens to the truth: her entire family is full of hopeless romantics destined to become cannon fodder.
In this angsty romance plot,
she is the wicked supporting female character who won’t stop pursuing the male lead.
Her younger brother is the villainous male character who tries to force the female lead into a relationship.
And her mother is the wicked wife who stands in the way of the female lead’s mother, the mistress, taking her place.
Their final fates are as follows.
The male lead pushes Xie Zhiyi down a flight of stairs, leaving her to die in a pool of blood while pregnant with twins.
Her younger brother discovers that the female lead has been cheating on him with countless men, then jumps to his death in despair.
The mistress drives Xie Zhiyi’s mother insane, and she dies after being sent to a mental hospital for electroshock treatment.
Xie Zhiyi is furious.
My fate is mine to decide, not the plot’s.
To save her family from their tragic fate, Xie Zhiyi chooses the quickest shortcut.
Marry into power and latch onto someone influential.
Who knew she’d accidentally get involved with a truly, truly powerful man?

Who in the capital doesn’t know Zhao Yanzhou, head of the elite Zhao family? He wields immense power and is richer than anyone could imagine, but he’s known to be cold-hearted and ruthless.
Rumor has it that he has no interest in women and even hates them. Wherever he goes, no woman is allowed within three meters of him.
But before long, a brazen woman proudly shows her marriage certificate on a livestream.
“Hi, everyone. I’m Mrs. Zhao.”
“My husband’s name is Zhao Yanzhou.”
Everyone is in an uproar.
Zhao Yanzhou?
It can’t be the Zhao Yanzhou they’re thinking of. They must just have the same name.
But the very next second,
a refined, impossibly handsome face appears on the livestream.
“Hello, everyone.”
“I’m Zhao Yanzhou, CEO of Zhao Group…”
