On New Year's Eve of the Year of the Snake, a contract changed the fate of two people.
In order to save her critically ill mother, ordinary girl Lin Wan signed a marriage contract and became the one-year contract wife of business emperor Lu Jingchen. The agreement is clear: on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the Year of the Horse in Bingwu, both money and goods are paid, and each has nothing to do with it.
But before the Lantern Festival lights went out, a well-planned business conspiracy tightly bound the two. At the beginning of the Year of the Horse, rumors of "noon and horse conflict" are rampant. Lu's empire's stock price fluctuates, and the mastermind behind the scenes is looming.
He thought that what he was marrying was just a chess piece, but she repeatedly broke the rules and showed amazing talents.
She thought she was marrying just Bingshan, but he came home late at night and cooked a bowl of hangover soup for her.
When the boundaries of the contract begin to blur, the dusty past quietly emerges - on a rainy night in the Year of the Horse twenty years ago, the Su family in Jiangnan suffered great changes, and the whereabouts of the real daughter became a mystery. All the clues point to the bride "bought" on New Year's Eve.
Family feuds, secret wars in the business world, and the mystery of one's life experience... In this year of the Bingwu Horse, where crises and opportunities coexist, contract marriages have quietly deteriorated. Is it just a joke, or is it fate?
"The contract can be ended," he stood in her path under the New Year's fireworks, with deep eyes, "but Mrs. Lu, I have made a reservation for your life."
