"Spoiled heiress × steady office worker"
1
Jiang Shihong had spent his whole life being ambitious in business. After a serious illness dulled his edge, he began dealing with the two things that weighed on him most.
One was his headstrong, capricious daughter who refused to marry. The other was the group, which had no one to take over.
Later, someone offered him a suggestion. Before leaving to recuperate, Jiang Shihong passed an appointment at a senior management meeting, making An Jin the new chairman.
At the same time, he announced the wedding between his only daughter, Jiang Yunhe, and An Jin.
Even Mrs. Jiang, who rarely left home, remarked that using An Jin to solve two age-old problems at once was a shrewd move, just what one would expect of an old fox.

From childhood onward, the person Jiang Yunhe couldn't stand most was An Jin. They went to the same school and had the same teachers, yet every report card he brought home showed him ranked first in his year.
Standing beside him as she faced Jiang Shihong's exasperated gaze, she wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.
She had led the effort to ostracize him at school. When she grew up and went to study in America, she ignored him. And now she was supposed to marry him.
After listening to the press conference, where the people it was about hadn't even been present, Jiang Yunhe watched Chairman An, dignified and elegant onstage, and shook with anger.
Hmph! Who wants to marry him!

An Jin had been raised in the Jiang household from the age of ten. He was always gentle and taciturn, and no one around him had ever seen him truly happy.
Except on their wedding day. When Jiang Yunhe, dressed in embroidered traditional Chinese wedding robes, walked toward him, An Jin's lips curved into a rare smile as he reached out to support her.
That night, a friend asked, "Even if Jiang Shihong raised you for ten years, you've worked for him all these years. Isn't that enough? Are you really going to work for him your whole life? The group has the Jiang name, not the An name. You could earn that salary anywhere."
He raised his hand and took a sip of champagne, his gaze falling on his bride in her evening gown. "I'll work for him my whole life. I'm willing."
