Once again, Chi Shui misses out at the three major film festivals. People mock her on Weibo, sneering that she's nothing but a pretty vase.
She pays them no mind. The Chi family's heiress entered show business just to escape lectures from her elders. The pay from one film is barely enough for her to snag a bag at an auction house.
But when she returns to China this time, Chi Shui is suddenly told that her family has gone bankrupt. She still has everything she needs, but now she has to worry about bringing in money.
The distinguished guest at her family's home reaches out to her. With a contract as their only bond, Chi Shui enters a flash marriage with a man she has met just once.
A marriage without love means neither of them has to answer to anyone. The man can give his family an explanation, while Chi Shui keeps her family afloat.
But she can no longer laze around. Forced to work hard at acting, she strives to earn enough to repay the man and get a divorce as soon as possible.

The hashtags "Chi Shui secretly married and had a child" and "Chi Shui cheated" hit the top of the trending list at the same time. The photos posted by gossip accounts look incredibly convincing.
She leaves an auction house holding the hand of a four-year-old boy. Her ring has been deliberately enlarged and circled. She and the man beside her behave like a respectful married couple before getting into the same car.
In another photo, she's wearing a mask and returning to an apartment with a male college student. A baseball cap hides his face, while a muscular arm beneath his T-shirt wraps around Chi Shui's shoulder.
With the shower running in the bathroom, Tan Yuzhou, the male college student, green brother-in-law, and the man who's been made to sleep in the study, risks his phone being confiscated. He takes Chi Shui's phone, opens Weibo, and posts a message.
"Yes, I'm married. We're still working on the little one."
"Both photos are of me."

- The male lead is five years older than the female lead. King x princess.
- They're each other's first love; marriage first, love later.
