Wen Jiujiu is the sole heir to the Wen Group, a wealthy heiress doted on by everyone around her. Her life is like that of a rose carefully raised in a greenhouse: beautiful and refined, but untouched by life's storms. Then her grandfather falls gravely ill, and his one wish is to see her married. To make him happy, she reluctantly begins going on blind dates, where she unexpectedly meets a mysterious man named Shen Qinghe, who claims he is simply “standing up for what's right.”
He is gentle and reserved. He brings her hot soup when she works late, quietly steps in when a suitor won't leave her alone, and offers just the right advice when she's lost. For the first time, Wen Jiujiu experiences the thrill of falling for someone, unaware that his approach has been carefully planned for years. Shen Qinghe has known since childhood that she was the bride promised to him, and has loved her in silence for twenty-three years. This is a sweet story of a longtime secret crush coming true, and a carefully planned courtship. At last, he can tell her openly the secret he's kept for so long: “You've been the bride I chose since we were children.”
