This is a marriage that started as a transaction, but it hides a ten-year secret love.
Su Nian never thought that she would reunite with Gu Huaichen, who disappeared ten years ago, in the early morning when her mother was critically ill. He appeared at the door of the hospital in a black car, and what he handed over was not comfort, but a cold contract marriage agreement.
The curtain of the contract marriage opened. Su Nian moved into the apartment arranged by him, joined the company controlled by him, and carefully played the role of "wife" amidst the hostility of his childhood sweetheart and the scrutiny of his elders. That man who always had an expressionless face delivered hot porridge to the hospital when she was working overtime late at night, secretly prepared brown sugar water during her menstrual period, reserved a private restaurant for her birthday, and promised to "give it to you every year from now on."
This is a story about trauma and healing, pushback and retrieval. Two people with scars explore the shape of love in a cold contract, and learn to trust through countless misunderstandings and misses. From the contract of "no emotional expectations" to the promise of "I will wait for you forever", they proved in the most clumsy way: love is not a choice of weighing the pros and cons, but the instinct to run towards you for the thousandth time even if you push away ten thousand times.
