Nie Zixuan was clever from a young age and had a real talent for embroidery. She vowed to revive her family's business through traditional craftsmanship, while her parents only hoped she'd get married soon and kept arranging blind dates for her.
Always a good girl, Nie Zixuan made her first rebellious decision: she invited Lu Ze to dinner and got straight to the point. "Let's get married."
Lu Ze raised his eyes slightly, shocked and somewhat disdainful. He thought she was no different from the people who had offered him their room cards and tried to get him into bed to climb the ladder to success.
Calm and sincere, Nie Zixuan took out a contract. "You need resources, and I need a live-in son-in-law. We each get what we need. Whatever conditions you have, put them in the contract."
At the time, Lu Ze had nothing, and he grabbed this only "lifeline" without hesitation.

The day after they got their marriage certificate, Nie Zixuan walked away without a backward glance.
It wasn't until three years later that she returned from her studies, ready to clean up the mess left behind by her father, who had mismanaged the family business.
What she hadn't expected was that Lu Ze, the live-in son-in-law who had once been an insignificant presence in her home, had become an acclaimed movie star, adored by everyone.
People with ulterior motives began making a big deal out of their marriage.
The contract they had signed had expired. To protect Lu Ze's image in the public eye, Nie Zixuan tore it up in front of him.
Lu Ze narrowed his eyes and braced one hand against the wall, trapping Nie Zixuan in the narrow space between them. He forced her to meet his gaze. "Nie Zixuan, you're so heartless."

To bring embroidery to the international stage, the company decided to invite Lu Ze to Paris Fashion Week.
For the sake of her career, Nie Zixuan had no choice but to lower her head to Lu Ze.
She cornered him backstage at the film set. "Lu Ze, what will it take for you to help me?"
He moved closer and drew her into his arms, speaking in a lingering, flirtatious tone. "All I've ever wanted is you."
She fell for him at first sight because he was handsome, while he had been laying his plans one step at a time.
Theme: Only by taking control of your own fate can you find the bright spots in life
