The Lu family has a young heiress, Lu Wu, who is famous in Shanghai's social circles. She is spoiled and radiant, loves spending money and handsome men, and spends every night at the city's most exclusive clubs.
A business marriage ties her to Li Yanci, the head of a top financial empire, rumored to be cold-hearted, desireless, and uninterested in women.
Everyone bets that this marriage of convenience won't last six months.
No one knows that this union is the result of eight years of careful planning by Li Yanci, who has secretly loved her all along.
Lu Wu thinks: I'll take the huge dowry, we'll each do our own thing, my husband will be a prop, and I can look at handsome men all I want.
Until she uses the enormous allowance her husband gave her to host a casting session for the entertainment industry at a club, only to be caught red-handed by Li Yanci, fresh off a flight.
The cool, noble man pulls her into his arms, his low voice tinged with jealousy. "Miss Lu, holding a beauty pageant without inviting your husband?"
In public, he is a ruthless business emperor. In private, his possessiveness knows no bounds. He coaxes her forward step by step, until the spoiled heiress who only wants to coast starts falling for him.
Lu Wu: "We agreed this was just a financial arrangement! How did you fall in love with me on the sly?!"
Li Yanci: "From the first time I saw you as a boy, my only goal has always been you."
