Shen Tinglan's golden finger is turning her anxious overthinking into on-the-spot analysis: one chart lays out the whole process, and one sentence pinpoints the flaw.
She signs a six-month contract as a "girlfriend" for 108,000 yuan, with a clear goal: collect the money when the term ends and leave without paying a penalty.
But every time she earnestly makes a request, Lu Chenzhou, president of the Lu Corporation, mistakes it for a wish list. Other people hear orders; he hears her "acting cute."
With graduation around the corner, family debts, workplace prejudice, scrutiny from the family, and project crises come knocking one after another. As she practices her spoiled-girl routine, she also relies on her interview skills, contract records, and quick thinking to land projects and lead a team. Lu Chenzhou is used to arranging everything for her, so she crosses things off one by one: work is work, romance is romance, and neither of them gets to treat resources like a personal favor.
From student to studio owner, she doesn't rely on the CEO to pull strings. She can land projects and withstand criticism. He learns to replace "I'll handle it for you" with "What do you want to do?" She wants to break up, and he refuses to let go, but all he can do is wait for her to give him an answer herself.
When this contract romance expires, can it be renewed? She counts the money first, he falls for her first. In the end, who will crack first?
