After transmigrating, Zhou Wei became a destitute young lady in the household of a treacherous minister, and was forced to bind herself to a Matchmaker System.
Complete matchmaking missions to earn Matchmaking Points and gain a happy marriage of her own.
Zhou Wei's response: Isn't building a career way better?
But when she picked up her old trade and resolved to make a living with her design skills, things took a strange turn:
The traditional-style headdress she designed unexpectedly won the princess's favor for the Grand Tutor.
The unique weapon she designed brought a martial arts dunce and a heroine general closer together.
The ingenious trinkets she designed even helped a closeted young prince win over an abstinent commander...
Zhou Wei had only wanted to scrape by, but somehow became the capital's “living matchmaker.” Not only did she earn a perfect Matchmaking Score, people also kept coming to ask her for advice about love.

Yu An, heir to the Marquis of Ningyuan, was as graceful as an orchid and a jade tree, and accomplished in both letters and arms.
But because fortune was against him, he was temporarily living in humble lodgings. Since he liked tinkering with handcrafted gadgets in his spare time, everyone naturally mistook him for a street artisan.
Yu An studied the bizarre design blueprint, lost his head for a moment, and agreed to take the order.
Who knew that from then on, the client would grow ever more presumptuous, repeatedly showing up with newly drawn blueprints to ask for his advice?
Did he have too little official work? Or did he look too poor?

Later, an imperial edict ordering the selection of a suitable match for the heir arrived.
Under pressure from imperial authority, Zhou Wei had no choice but to gather portraits of women and spend her days rushing around the marquis's residence.
But even after the threshold of the marquis's residence had been trampled twice, none of the candidates managed to please the young lord.
After much soul-searching, Zhou Wei reviewed her past experience, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and gathered a batch of men's portraits instead...
Yu An finally couldn't take it anymore and went to see her in person.
Zhou Wei smiled as if she'd expected it. “Have you finally made up your mind, my lord?”
Yu An answered with a question. “Can I truly choose anyone I want?”
Zhou Wei: “Of course!”
Yu An then calmly took out a marriage contract. Her name was prominently written in black ink on red paper. “Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Zhou.”
Zhou Wei: ...?
