A Calculated Marriage

Qi Xuanyan has secretly loved Shao Wanwan for years, but her feelings have never been returned.

Then Shao Wanwan's first love discovers that Qi Xuanyan's identity as the heiress of the Qi family is a lie.

To make matters worse, she ends up as the personal secretary to that playboy's first love.

To protect the secret of her birth, Qi Xuanyan is forced into an ambiguous relationship where she must swallow her pride and endure.

Chu Yun is a notorious second-generation rich kid in Shengjing, and there's a thorn in her heart:

The girl she loves is deeply in love with someone else.

There seems to be no cure for her heartbreak, until one day she discovers Qi Xuanyan's secret.

With keen interest, Chu Yun sizes up the new secretary in the board office. “Secretary Qi, have we met in one of those dreams?”

The sheets are hot and damp. Through the covers, Qi Xuanyan hears Shao Wanwan outside say, “A Chu, I...”

Chu Yun pulls the covers over Qi Xuanyan and presses a fingertip gently to her lips. “Shh, be good.”

[Little Scene]

Chu Yun: “I have a little gift for you.”

Qi Xuanyan: “What is it?”

Chu Yun: “Nothing special, just a marriage certificate.”

Only then does Qi Xuanyan realize that Chu Yun has been plotting for this moment for many, many years.

“Is the pomegranate the devil's fruit?”

“It's so sweet, it can trick you into falling into my heart.”
