[Marriage Before Love + Marriage of Convenience + Powerful Family Alliance + Secret Crush Comes True + Career Growth]
[Clearheaded, independent jewelry designer × restrained, devoted, cold-faced heir]
The jewelry brand “Zhiguang,” left behind by her mother, is about to be sold off by the family, and Xu Qingzhi is being forced to surrender control of the business.
At the board meeting, everyone is waiting to see her driven out.
But Gu Yanheng, heir to the Gu family, pushes a marriage agreement in front of her.
“Marry me, and I’ll help you save Zhiguang.”
Right there, Xu Qingzhi changes three clauses: an independent career, separate finances, and separate bedrooms. After two years, they can divorce at any time.
Gu Yanheng doesn’t even look at it. “Fine.”
She has always believed this is simply a marriage alliance in which each gets what they need.
Only after the wedding does she discover that this famously aloof man remembers her ring size, knows what she’s allergic to, and even remembers design habits she herself has forgotten.
When her family cuts off her funding, he takes on the credit risk for her, but doesn’t interfere with her purchasing decisions.
When she’s accused of plagiarism, he doesn’t suppress the public backlash. Only after she presents her evidence does he declare in front of everyone:
“The Gu family recognizes only Xu Qingzhi, and only her work.”
At last, Xu Qingzhi begins to wonder:
Did Gu Yanheng really marry her only because of that agreement?
But what she doesn’t know is that, before their two-year marriage is over, a secret capable of sending their relationship completely out of control is waiting for her to uncover with her own hands.
