Three years ago, after their engagement banquet, medical sales rep Du Yu and Wei Hang, heir to Anhua Group, went their separate ways.
Three years later, a no-fault marriage contract was placed before Du Yu.
They would each get what they needed, with their responsibilities clearly defined. She would be Wei Hang’s wife in name only, helping his family cover up the scandal of a minor giving birth and protect the public image of its listed company. They agreed not to fall in love and to part amicably when the contract expired.
But while a cold contract could bind their identities, it couldn’t restrain the feelings of the past from stirring again.
Beneath their polished adult facades, undercurrents of rivalry ran deep. As they tested and provoked one another, an unexpected pregnancy threw all their plans into disarray.
Zhang Yunduo’s obsessive entanglement, layers of deception about their identities, and the storm engulfing the business world all closed in.
Caught between his late father’s dying wish and the group’s reputation, Wei Hang was at a loss. Clear-eyed and composed, Du Yu refused to give her heart away again.
Would this marriage, born of a transaction, become a source of mutual salvation or a prison that destroyed them both?
