A case of love at first sight sparks the tangled story of a marriage that begins before love. But one is too stubborn to speak, the other is a man of few words; one refuses to say "I love you," and the other can't feel the love.
Jun Shiqing is the second daughter of the wealthiest and most powerful Jun family. At eighteen, she falls for Si Yanzhi at first sight and marries him under the guise of an alliance while the Si family is in trouble. After three years of a respectful but distant marriage, she thinks he doesn't love her, while he thinks she'll leave sooner or later.
When Si Yanzhi trends online alongside his childhood friend and then attends a banquet with her, Jun Shiqing finally makes up her mind to divorce him.
The retired System sees how unhappy she is every day and decides to snatch a male lead from the Supreme System so she can have a sweet romance. Who knew it would be gone for nine months?
During that time, Si Yanzhi is in a car accident and left disabled. With his wife gone as well, he gives up on himself, refuses treatment, hands the company over to Jun Shiqing's younger brother to manage, and shuts himself away in despair.
Three months later, Jun Shiqing finally learns what happened to him.
Fear and worry win out, and she resolutely returns to Jiangcheng.
Because of his leg injury, Si Yanzhi signs the divorce agreement and agrees to let her go.
But Jun Shiqing refuses. He can't just decide whether they stay married or divorce whenever he likes. What makes him think he can get away with that?
Nine months later, the System finally returns, bringing along a perfect CEO from overseas. It excitedly tells Jun Shiqing that she can begin a sweet romance.
Jun Shiqing refuses and says she can give Si Yanzhi another chance.
The System is speechless. The System grumbles and curses. The System rushes off to get medicine from the Supreme System.
In its haste, it forgets to take the foreign CEO with it.
Is it a marriage that begins before love, a mutual secret crush, or a husband-chasing crematorium? None of the above, because President Si is still waiting in line.
