Lured by money, they push An Ran into a seemingly endless, dark marriage—marrying her to Mu Tingchen, a legendary businessman who has fallen into a vegetative state after a car accident. Mu Tingchen was once a powerful and ruthless figure in the business world, with connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds, commanding respect and awe. However, an accident plunged his world into a deathly silence. After the marriage, her brother-in-law, Mu Tingyu, with malicious intentions, frequently harasses An Ran. To escape this difficult situation, An Ran, relying on her solid medical knowledge and unwavering perseverance, miraculously awakens her vegetative husband, Mu Tingchen. Upon awakening, Mu Tingchen initially strongly resists this arranged marriage and treats An Ran with icy indifference. But as they spent more time together, An Ran's gentleness and independence, like a ray of light, quietly pierced through the ice in Mu Tingchen's heart, causing him to fall completely in love. From then on, the cold-faced tycoon transformed into a doting husband, embarking on a sweet married life with An Ran and giving a resounding slap to those with wicked intentions.
