At the Jiangcheng International Jewelry Exhibition, gifted designer Jiang Ruan was maliciously framed by her stepsister, Jiang Xue. Overnight, she went from rising star to plagiarism scandal, condemned by everyone. Her own family cast her aside, and an industry-wide ban loomed. Her life plunged into darkness.
Just as she hit rock bottom, Lu Zhiting, one of Jiangcheng’s most powerful men, appeared with irrefutable evidence. He cleared her name in front of everyone, then made sure her accuser was publicly disgraced.
He offered her a marriage contract, his voice cool but resolute. “Sign it. I’ll help you get revenge, reclaim everything that belongs to you, and reach the pinnacle of jewelry design.”
To fulfill her dream and take revenge, Jiang Ruan signed a one-year marriage contract and became the envy of the whole city, Mrs. Lu.
Everyone thought she was a clinging vine who had married into power, and waited for Lu Zhiting to cast her aside. But no one expected that
When her stepsister tried to harm her again, Lu Zhiting sent her straight to prison, where she could never make a comeback!
When her birth family tried to guilt-trip her, Lu Zhiting publicly tore into her biased parents and severed all ties for good!
When industry peers banded together to ostracize her, Lu Zhiting cut off all their resources and declared, “You have no right to criticize my wife!”
Jiang Ruan rose through the ranks on her own merit, going from an industry outcast to a top-tier star in China, then reaching the summit of the international jewelry-design world. She became a light everyone looked up to.
And the contract marriage that began as a transaction gradually strayed from its intended course.
When the contract was finally exposed, the whole internet erupted. In front of the global media, Lu Zhiting wrapped an arm around her waist and confessed passionately, “The contract was just my way of pursuing her. From the very beginning, my love for her was sincere, and long in the making.”
It turned out that, through all the years she knew nothing about, he had already held her close in his heart
