[Marriage first, love later + both leads are virgins + love grows over time!!!]
Shi Mian is used as a bargaining chip by her father and, in a daze, registers her marriage to a man from the Nan family. She spends three months alone in Moyuan, waiting for her husband, whom she has never met, and assumes he must be Nan Jingchu, her first love of three years.
At a Nan family banquet, emboldened by drink, she confesses her feelings to Nan Jingchu. Drunk, she mistakes the Nan family’s second son, Nan Xiaoche, for someone else, vomits all over his expensive suit, and even slaps him, creating quite a grudge.
Late that night, she returns to the villa where she lives alone, wrapped in a bath towel, only to run into the cold, haughty man she offended earlier that day. A security guard’s words, “Second Young Madam,” reveal the shocking misunderstanding.
She hasn’t married her first love at all. She married Nan Xiaoche, Nan Jingchu’s younger brother.
With her beautiful dream shattered, Shi Mian signs a cohabitation agreement with the thoroughly annoyed Nan Xiaoche. They agree to live separate lives and never interfere in each other’s private affairs.
But then her meddling mother-in-law suddenly shows up with an aphrodisiac bought overseas, personally trying to bring the two together. Her first love, Nan Jingchu, keeps appearing and stirring up old feelings in Shi Mian, making Nan Xiaoche fiercely jealous and eager to compete and keep watch.
Though Nan Xiaoche keeps complaining that Shi Mian has feelings for someone else, he silently shields her from her family’s difficulties, repeatedly crossing the boundaries they set.
Amid endless arguments and misunderstandings, this marriage of convenience, born of a mix-up, slowly wins the heart of the cold, domineering CEO.
