A sweet-toothed pastry chef X a stern, aloof big shot
Strangers to lovers after an arranged marriage | The powerful one bows his head
To save her family's business, Lu Rong comes alone to Jiangcheng to fulfill her sister's marriage contract in her place.
Rumor has it her intended is an older, stern man, cold and dull. Marrying him would be no different from becoming a widow.
In an elongated black Rolls-Royce, Lu Rong meets the young heir. His face is handsome and cold, and he shows little interest in her, merely handing her a prenuptial agreement.
After they marry, they don't interfere in each other's affairs. They barely speak, and their only points of contact are home and work.
At home, they treat each other with respect.
At work, they pretend not to know each other.

Shen Yanqing, head of the Shen family, heir to a century-old clan, a powerful young master of high standing. Ruthless and sternly aloof.
Lu Rong, gentle and sweet, the youngest daughter of the Lu family, kindhearted and devoted to all kinds of charity.
No one would ever imagine the two of them having anything to do with each other.
One day, at a company event, Lu Rong is targeted and publicly humiliated. Her arrogant tormentor spreads rumors that she's being kept by some old man, and that all her designer clothes and jewelry were gifts from him.
In the confusion, the young woman steps back and bumps into a warm chest.
The boss, who rarely makes an appearance and is strict with everyone, shields her in his arms. His voice turns icy.
