[A Powerful Man Faking a Disability x An Ambitious Second Daughter]
After a car accident, Lin Yuheng, once the pride of the heavens, fell from grace and became bound to a wheelchair.
The business alliance between the Shen and Lin families needed a last-minute change of bride. Shen Zhichu, the Shen family's cast-off daughter, took her sister Shen Zhiwei's place and married into the Lin family.
In the eyes of outsiders, she was a sacrificial offering, forced to marry a cripple whose future had been ruined.
Only Shen Zhichu knew that this marriage, one everyone else shunned, was the stepping stone she had been planning to use for years.
After years of lying low, she had been kept under her family's thumb at every turn. To reclaim what belonged to her and take actual control of the Shen Group, joining forces with Lin Yuheng was her only shortcut.
On their wedding night, a contract was laid before them.
Shen Zhichu got straight to the point: "I need the Lin family's resources to help me take control of the Shen Group. We'll each get what we want, and leave feelings out of it."
The man in the wheelchair raised his eyes, deep-seated scheming hidden in their depths. "All right. But you must become my chess piece, too."
She thought Lin Yuheng was merely a discarded heir, trapped in a wheelchair and powerless to fight back.
Only after their repeated clashes did she gradually realize that the wheelchair was just his camouflage.
After years spent lying low, Lin Yuheng had already laid out an immense business strategy.
The two used each other and tested one another as they advanced side by side through the undercurrents of the wealthy elite.
As she edged closer to the heart of power in the Shen Group, she accidentally fell for her own stepping stone.
And the man hiding behind the wheelchair had long since seen through every one of her thoughts.
