The three favorite pastimes of He Chengzhou, the newly appointed head of the He Group, are listening to opera, calligraphy, and tea.

Before they married, Jiang Yinong scoffed at them: What an old fossil. How boring.

[Synopsis for Silk-Tangled Hearts]

Chu Huan has been with Chen Yueqin for four years. Outsiders all say he keeps her like a caged bird. But that's not true. Chen Yueqin has never felt romantic love for her. If anything, all that lies between them is gratitude and kindness.

He keeps her as a bird not to possess her, but to help her strengthen her wings so she can fly higher one day.

Chen Yueqin is handsome and well-read, with an air of effortless elegance. He's the most sought-after aloof beauty in Nancheng. When she was at her darkest, he pulled her out of the abyss. Chu Huan can't help falling into the gentle web this man has woven around her. But she also knows that even if he is one hundred percent of her life, she can only ever be one percent of his.

She doesn't want to be just that one percent, so she walks away as soon as she graduates from university.

Two years later, after completing her advanced studies, she returns to the country and lands a job at Nancheng's largest venture capital firm thanks to her excellent abilities.

One day, while having dinner with a client, she runs into Chen Yueqin at a gathering with friends. Her heart, quiet for two years, begins to pound for him again.

After seeing her client off, she goes to find Chen Yueqin. He's alone in the private room. He pours her a glass of wine and wishes her a bright future.

They talk about many things that night. Chu Huan drinks one glass after another, and those drinks become the beginning of their entanglement.

"Chen Yueqin said a princess didn't suit me, so he taught me to be my own queen. Later, I became his queen, and also his princess.", Chu Huan
