The client is an investment bank; the counsel is a lawyer. They’re sworn enemies who can’t stand each other.
Investment banking VP Ji Yanning is pressured by her family to marry. To get them off her back, she finds some “ordinary lawyer” and signs a fake marriage agreement.
Three months, mutual benefit, then divorce. What she doesn’t know is that the other party to the agreement is Lu Yanheng, heir to the Jinhe Group, and the most important client she’ll have three months from now.
Worse, before she finds out who he really is, she has already talked back to her client, insulted him to his face, and slapped a divorce agreement down on his desk.
Ji Yanning: “It’s been three months. Sign it.”
Lu Yanheng picks up his pen and signs something right in front of her: her application for permanent employment.
“Director Ji, I’m your client. Your divorce agreement is invalid.”
