Everyone in the capital said that Fu Rongcha had some nerve pursuing Prince Ling. She was utterly shameless.

The cool and noble Prince Ling had no interest in women. She'd picked the wrong man to climb the social ladder through marriage.

Rongcha ignored the mockery. Her bright eyes sparkling, she smiled. "Gu Xun, do you like me even a little?"

Prince Ling glanced at her, suddenly realizing he'd indulged her too much. "No."

When Rongcha had exhausted all her strength and still couldn't reach him on his lofty pedestal, she decided she might as well step back and stop trying so hard to pursue him.

Accustomed to seeing her adoring gaze whenever he looked up, Prince Ling's face darkened when it no longer rested on him.

To the shock of the entire capital, Prince Ling personally petitioned the emperor to arrange a marriage with Rongcha of the Fu family.

Only after their wedding did she learn that she was merely his second choice, the consolation prize he'd settled for because he couldn't marry his cousin.

After crying herself dry, Rongcha left overnight in a carriage with the help of a prince from a neighboring kingdom.

She put the eighteen talents she'd learned while pursuing Gu Xun to use and opened an arts academy.

Gu Xun searched everywhere for Rongcha, then flew into a murderous rage and led his army to conquer the neighboring kingdom's capital.

At last, in a small border town, he found Rongcha, confident and radiant.

For the first time, the imposing and imperious Gu Xun softened his manner and coaxed her in a low voice. "Come back home with me."

Rongcha gave him a cold glance. "Isn't it nice being admired here? Besides, you don't love me. Let's just leave each other alone."

Gu Xun's eyes turned bloodshot, and his hoarse voice trembled. "I don't just like you a little. I'm deeply in love with you."

The once-famous actress Dan Qing is drowning in debt and has also been betrayed by her first love.

After a misunderstanding, Qu Tiancheng, a powerful business magnate known as "the man everyone dreams of," mistakenly believes she likes him, and actually agrees to date her!

Thus begins Dan Qing's dramatic campaign to seduce him and get money to pay off her debts.

But somewhere along the way, she ends up falling for him for real.

When Dan Qing learns that he hates being lied to, she spends every day walking on eggshells, just short of digging out her heart and holding it up to him.

But she still can't keep the truth from him.

After learning what really happened, Qu Tiancheng sneers. "No wonder you're an award-winning actress. You sure can put on a good show."

Clutching his coat, she humbly begs him to forgive her. "I really do love you. I'm not lying this time."

Her sincere apology earns only a scornful glance and a check left on the floor.

"You got your money. What else do you want to scam me out of?"

Dan Qing hides the tears in her eyes, picks up the check, and rips it to shreds with a bitter smile. She packs her bags and leaves that very night.

Unable to find her, Qu Tiancheng repeatedly calls the number that never answers, muttering to himself, "Why didn't you keep up the lie to the end...?"

After leaving Qu Tiancheng, Dan Qing throws herself into making money and paying off her debts on her own.

She takes acting roles, endorsements, and commercial appearances, keeping so busy she's never around.

She even gets caught up in a dating scandal with a top-tier star.

At a charity gala, Dan Qing's entrance draws countless eyes. She's so dazzling she outshines everyone in the room.

Qu Tiancheng's eyes turn bloodshot as he watches the woman who used to tell him she loved him openly linking arms with a top-tier star and raising a glass to him.

His fingers tighten around the wineglass until they turn white, his eyes bloodshot.

After the gala, he corners Dan Qing in a quiet part of the ballroom and coaxes her hoarsely. "How about I give you all my assets?"

Dan Qing arches her phoenix eyes and smiles confidently. "Sorry, I just made the top of the Forbes Celebrity List. I don't really need it."

Theme: For love, the heroine strives to improve herself and learns many skills, eventually finding the courage to stand on her own two feet
