[Running away from the wedding + both leads are devoted to each other + 1v1 + faked death + love-centered coercive romance + slow-burn relationship]
[The male lead is genuinely blind at first, but his power will return later.]
What's it like to have a betrothed you've never met?
Chen Xianhe's answer: absolutely awful.
To escape a loathsome arranged marriage, she followed her late friend's final wish and went to the village where her friend had once taught.
She never expected one bizarre incident after another to happen there.
A friend who had been dead for years comes back to life?
Her blind fiancé turns out to have been right under her nose, despite being so far away?
As the truth behind the betrothal gradually comes to light, the fate and karmic ties entangled in it prove impossible to escape.
With no other way to put an end to it all, Chen Xianhe reluctantly chooses to fake her death and disappear.
Years later, she makes a name for herself and becomes a highly sought-after new director.
Who would have guessed her fiancé would also transform into a top-tier star in the entertainment industry?
After a celebration banquet, he closes in on her step by step and pins her, unprepared, against the wall. His voice is hoarse as he says:
“Director Chen, didn't you say you planned to sleep with me to get ahead? Is that offer off the table?”
Chen Xianhe: ...I faked my death and ran away, and still couldn't escape him?
