When reason and tenderness sign a contract, two people who don't understand love learn the algorithm of heartbeats in a countdown marriage.
Lin Xingwan signed a 365-day marriage contract in order to fulfill his mother's last wish of "being firmly chosen once". She carries a countdown book with her and silently counts the day of farewell in every sweet moment, adhering to the rule of "no emotions, no expectations, no regrets". What she didn't know was that at the end of this contract, there was an unfinished promise that spanned two generations.
Lu Huaishen needs a marriage contract to inherit the family business. Childhood trauma caused him to suffer from "emotional cognitive impairment" - he can accurately analyze the market value of trillions, but cannot identify for whom his heartbeat is accelerating. He defined marriage as a social function to be completed, until the night when he discovered her secret countdown, and the system popped up an unclassifiable alert for the first time.
This is not a simple marriage first and love later, but a two-way emotional experiment and healing journey:
· She taught him to name emotions: "This is heartache, not stomachache." "This is pride, not passing an evaluation."
· He broke the rules for her: silent porridge, customized starry sky skirt, and "she always has the right to choose" in the equity transfer document.
· They face together: family scrutiny, career crisis, ghosts of the past, and behind the contract, the "love issues" set by their elders with lifelong regrets.
When the countdown reached zero and she burned the contract and prepared to leave, she discovered the truth in the paintings left by her mother:
The so-called last wish is never to "wait to be chosen", but to "become a complete starry sky first, and then let people who know how to appreciate it move in."
And he finally developed an emotion recognition program exclusive to her. Under the starry sky when they first met, he spoke the first self-defined emotion word in a trembling but clear voice:
"Lin Xingwan, I have detected a persistent, directional, and irreplaceable physical and psychological connection. After checking all the databases, the closest name is - love you."
Intention: To love and be loved
