Shen Xinghe, a technology mogul, had a script in hand involving his family fortune being stolen, his return for revenge, and his rise back to the top. But he accidentally got drugged and slept with someone! The woman ran off right after, leaving him completely baffled.
"Tsk, tsk. What an old-fashioned setup! Next, the domineering CEO should search the whole city for her, then his wife will come back with a baby, right?"
Shen Xinghe, who was allergic to women, flew into a rage and smashed things in his office, ordering his most trusted assistant, Gu Qingmeng, to find the woman at all costs!
Gu Qingmeng wore a black pantsuit and wasn't affected by President Shen's mood in the slightest. As calm as ever, she asked, "What does President Shen plan to do once we find her?"
Shen Xinghe's face darkened. "Do? Hah. I'll teach her how to spell 'criminal law'!"
Gu Qingmeng nodded steadily. The moment she stepped out of the domineering CEO's several-hundred-square-meter office, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the floor!
Damn it!
Am I going to have to turn myself in for breaking the law?!
Before the truth came out, Gu Qingmeng submitted her resignation to Shen Xinghe.
Shen Xinghe flew into a rage. "Tell me, who's trying to poach you? I'll offer you double, and bring them down while I'm at it!"
Gu Qingmeng was used to his "When the sky turns cold, the company goes bankrupt" talk. She lied with a straight face: "The air here is bad. I want a change of scenery."
Shen Xinghe froze on the spot. His temper softened at once, and he took her hand, looking downcast and meek. "Is it because... I'm not clean anymore?"
Gu Qingmeng: "???"
Shen Xinghe was terribly aggrieved and tried to snuggle up to her. "Mengmeng, don't go, okay?"
Gu Qingmeng: "???" Since when did her CEO turn into a scheming little green tea?

1.
Lin Xianyu is famous in journalism for her breathtaking beauty and gentle sharpness. Her striking features are beautiful yet cool and distant, like a rare orchid blooming in a secluded valley. She entered the public eye through a news article that went viral across the headlines.
At the annual journalism awards, the organizers described her this way: "A celestial maiden has descended to earth. No one can stand beside her."
Then, during a livestream interview, a dingy plastic orchid ring on her immaculate ring finger sparked controversy, with everyone lamenting the celestial maiden's heartbreak.
Lin Xianyu raised the plastic ring and smiled openly. "I'm married. He's really wonderful."

As the sole heir to Rongcheng's largest conglomerate, Fo Guinan is cold and unapproachable. No news outlet dares send him an interview request, yet countless wealthy heiresses throw themselves at him. Unfortunately, no one has ever made the Buddhist prince break his vows.
People only know that the incredibly powerful man of the Fo family loves collecting agarwood prayer beads and rare orchids.
At a high-level business gathering, Fo Guinan wore a dignified, aloof, pure-black Italian handmade suit, with a plastic orchid brooch on his chest and a cheap red agate bracelet on his wrist. His friend found the combination novel and boldly teased him.
A smile suddenly stirred in the man's usually cold eyes. He rubbed the beads and said slowly, "My wife made it by hand."
The powerful people in their circle were all curious: Who exactly was this wife?
-
Some time later, his friend heard that he had spent a fortune at an auction on several rare orchids worth hundreds of millions, then driven up a mountain in the middle of the night and knocked on the door of the mansion where he lived alone.
But the usually buttoned-up Buddhist prince appeared shirtless, his eyes lowered and his expression deeply impatient. He had clearly been interrupted at a bad time.
His friend's legs trembled. Just as he turned to run, a delicate hand curled around the prince's neck and a woman laughed, "Don't be angry. You'll scare the kid."
Her voice was unbearably alluring. His friend looked over instinctively and saw a stunning face against the prince's back, damp hair, and faintly red eyes. In the lonely mountaintop mansion in the dead of night, she looked like an enchanting demoness who had lived for a thousand years.
Wait?
Wasn't this the aloof, otherworldly reporter who never got involved with the world?
[Short scene]
Fo Guinan, a prospective heir to a conglomerate who had spent all 28 years of his life working, had recently started leaving work at five on the dot every day.
His friend teased him when he saw this. "President Fo, does your wife keep you on that tight a leash?"
Holding his car keys, Fo Guinan gave a half-smile. "Can't be helped. My wife's busy with work, so I go early to wait for her to finish."
Later, after another interview made the gorgeous celestial reporter Lin Xianyu a viral sensation, countless people in the comments shouted, "Wife!" That very night, Fo Guinan registered an account, reposted her interview, and wrote: "Don't call her that. She's mine."
After meeting Lin Xianyu, his cold, loveless life was suddenly filled with an intense longing and desire.
He wanted to hide that orchid from the secluded valley somewhere on the mountaintop, where no one else could see her, and keep her all to himself.

Reunion after a long separation / marriage first, love later
"Buddhist prince" is just the male lead's nickname. Fo is his surname, and Lin Xianyu is his faith.
