Grandpa suffered a heart attack and the surgery cost 800,000 yuan.
When lawyer Shen Muqing was desperate, Lu Yanzhou, the president of Lu Group, handed over an agreement - one year of marriage, he would pay to save her, and she would be the nominal Mrs. Lu.
She thought it was a cold deal.
After moving to his apartment, she found that the law book on the shelf was the version she had read in college, the green plants on the balcony were of her favorite variety, and he would always quietly replace the expired food in the refrigerator.
Everyone said that Lu Yanzhou was cold-faced and unfeeling, but he remembered that she didn't eat coriander, that she would forget to eat when working overtime, and that she said her defense in the moot court - six years ago, he was sitting in the audience and saw her for the first time.
He kept that photo for six years, with a line of words written on the back: "In November 2019, I saw her for the first time."
What she thought was "just right" was all his long-planned plan.
But Mrs. Lu's position was not easy to sit in - Xu Qinghe set up a trap, someone in the law firm stabbed her, and Lu's board of directors forced him to make a choice. When her lawyer's qualification was frozen, and when everyone advised him to protect himself wisely, he stood up and faced a table of directors and said only four words -
"She's my wife."
It took her a year to go from contract to sincerity.
And it took him six years to walk up to her and say the unspoken words.
