Gu Xiaoxiao is a bit-part actress who juggles three jobs and sleeps in a storage room.
Then she stumbles into a drinking party and comes face-to-face with the famously cold-blooded, disabled CEO of JX Group.
With a single chime, the gears of fate begin to turn.
- Task one: Sign a fake marriage agreement to fend off his family’s pressure to get him married.
- Task two: Move in together and discover he never dares sleep in a bed, and that his back is covered in whip scars.
- Task three: Risk her life to protect him in a car accident on a rainy day.
She thinks she’s just a contract wife doing a job for money.
She never expects that this man, who grits his teeth and stays silent even when nerve pain leaves him drenched in cold sweat, would tear up for her.
“Sorry, I scared you.” He hurriedly tries to hide his scars.
But Gu Xiaoxiao hands him a bowl of oden. “Finished? Let’s go home and eat.”
It turns out his good-for-nothing act is a disguise, one that lets him quietly build up the strength to turn everything upside down.
And she is the only glimmer of light in his dark night.
It's all over, is there anything left? [Sending Hearts]
