When Wen Qiao was forced to take on her younger brother's debt and nearly had her whole life ruined by her birth family, she was at the end of her rope. Then Lu Yanci, the head of a top-tier wealthy family, stopped her in front of everyone.
To resist his family's business alliance marriage, he casually chose her, an unassuming girl with a clean background. They signed a two-year marriage contract, agreeing to wed and stay out of each other's affairs.
On the day they registered their marriage, they moved into separate rooms. He was cold and distant, denied the marriage in public, and treated her as nothing more than a prop to appease his family.
Everyone laughed at her for clinging to power, a girl of humble origins destined to be discarded once their short-lived agreement ended.
But nobody knew that this absurd whirlwind marriage had won her the affection of the entire elite family.
The stern old master treasured her like the apple of his eye. His open-minded parents cared for her as if she were their own daughter, while his gentle older brother and witty uncle stood firmly in her corner.
The only exception was Lu Yanci, all bark and no bite, impossibly stubborn. At first, he watched coldly as she tread carefully and suffered alone.
His childhood sweetheart, the moonlight in his heart, returned to drive a wedge between them. Wealthy socialites joined forces to mock her, and her birth family kept tightening the screws. Misunderstandings piled up, and their push and pull never stopped.
When Wen Qiao had finally had enough, tore up the contract, and turned to leave, the cold-hearted CEO went completely mad.
He cast aside his pride and dignity and began a desperate, humbling campaign to win his wife back, confessing his love to the whole internet, doting on her at every turn, and giving her all his affection.
The entire Lu family took the heroine's side, gleefully tormenting their arrogant CEO: "You wouldn't stand up for your wife back then, so begging her now won't help!"
From then on, the aloof CEO became completely henpecked. With the whole family doting on her, an ordinary girl turned her fortunes around and was cherished for life, filling the whole city with sweetness!
