A Mindless Farce Between a Doctor and a Security Guard

With the Lunar New Year approaching, the annual matchmaking pressure arrived right on schedule.

Su Qingyi, a PhD graduate from a prestigious university, was hounded by her family to get married. She was over thirty and still single.

On the campus of Jinghua University, she ran into Lu Yuan, a fellow hometown native and former soldier who now worked as a security guard. They were around the same age and in similar situations, both overwhelmed by their families’ pressure to marry.

To appease their elders and escape the endless blind dates, they hit upon the same idea and agreed to pretend to be a couple for the trip home over the New Year.

They took turns visiting each other’s families, fending off relatives’ questions about marriage. They thought they could call it quits after a few days and finally enjoy some peace and quiet.

But once the act began, it turned into a never-ending drama.

Both sets of parents kept pushing them to set a wedding date, while relatives took turns visiting them in the capital to gawk. Before long, their pretend romance had been pushed toward marriage.

Worn out by the pressures of love and marriage in real life, where will these two go from here...
