   Although the male lead is ruthless, his interactions with the female lead are incredibly sweet. Chen Jiayi, a recent college graduate, has just started a new relationship, and her fresh start in life is about to begin. However, upon returning home from her graduation trip, she is told she must marry a man eight years her senior—almost three generations older—according to her parents' wishes. What a cruel joke! Although this man is handsome and composed, Chen Jiayi always gets the feeling that he's cunning and manipulative. The man Chen Jiayi is to marry, Pei Haoyong, is the illegitimate son of a powerful underworld family. When he was ten, his mother suddenly disappeared, and the helpless boy was taken home by his father. However, his father's wife, under the pretext of "training," sent him to Country A, one of the most chaotic and dangerous countries in the world, to fend for himself. But he, through his intelligence and strength, rises from the ashes and establishes himself in Country A. His father recalls Pei Haoyong from abroad to restructure his underworld business. Upon returning, he begins to uncover the secrets behind his mother's disappearance and embarks on a violent yet strategic battle for inheritance and revenge. [Smirk]
