Zhao Qian is the only female entrepreneur in Nancheng with a name people recognize. She is nearly thirty, and still single.
To avoid the blind dates her family had arranged, she panicked and grabbed a handsome young man off the street, one who'd just been scolded by his boss, and brought him home.
She gave him a bank card and instructed him, "I don't like having people come to my house."
"So these, these, and these all need to get done while I'm out."
"The trial period is three months. If you pass, we'll get married."

Not only did the handsome young man have a face that could steal anyone's heart, he was also perfect at housework.
Ever since he moved in, Zhao Qian couldn't find a speck of dust on the floor.
As soon as the trial period ended, Zhao Qian married him in a flash.
She brought Qian Yanli home in triumph, challenging the old man who insisted she marry for an alliance.
But the old man looked delighted. "What? You've already registered your marriage with my fine young friend? Wonderful!"
Zhao Qian: "...What?"
*
Only after getting married did Zhao Qian realize this had all been a damn scam. The handsome young man supposedly scolded by his boss had merely happened to pass by a lunatic. And his supposedly perfect housework? He'd hired people to do it while she was out!
"Divorce!"
They had to get divorced!
Qian Yanli tenderly kissed the corner of her reddened eye. His harmless little bunny act from the past three months vanished, replaced by a different expression. "Be good. You'll never escape me in this lifetime."
Zhao Qian: "@#¥&*…"
Even an armored vehicle can't put on as much of an act as you.
