Xiao Kai is a genius archaeologist who spends every day unable to tear himself away from ancient artifacts. His wealthy father has finally had enough and frozen his research funding. The only way to get it back is to get married.
Xiao Kai has no choice but to publicly advertise for a wife. Requirements: female, alive.
Yu Yan is the personal bodyguard of a wealthy young heiress. Her job is to escort the applicants to Egypt for interviews, then watch them flee one by one.
When nobody else applies, Xiao Kai is at a loss. Without a wife, his research funding will go down the drain!
When he sees Yu Yan climbing out of an excavation pit, his eyes light up.
Xiao Kai: "Miss Yu Yan, would you consider becoming my wife?"
Yu Yan: "..." She stares at the clause promising thirty million in divorce compensation and is tempted.
A year later, she regrets it. Why won't Xiao Kai's hands, which only love fiddling with ancient artifacts, stop clinging to her? He wants to peel away layer after layer, all in the name of "research!"
Isn't he only interested in inanimate objects? She's alive.
A cool, celibate archaeologist from a wealthy family x a sharp, clear-headed, cool beauty of a bodyguard
