Xia Tiantian was the beloved daughter of a Shanghai tycoon, and everything had gone her way for twenty-two years.
She never imagined that after graduating from college, her family would force her into an arranged marriage with a man she'd never met.
Her match was named Shen Zejun. He supposedly came from a powerful family and was a renowned young gentleman in Beijing, with countless admirers.
His agreeing to marry into the Xia family was said to be a great honor for them.
That made Xia Tiantian even angrier.
Some young gentleman, whatever. She wouldn't have him.
Furious, she took a ride-hailing car to Beijing to break off the engagement, only to find she couldn't even get through the gates of the Shen residence.
As she stamped her feet in frustration, she heard that the Shen family was hiring an assistant, one who would even attend to Young Master Shen personally.
Xia Tiantian's eyes lit up as she came up with a plan.
She infiltrated the Shen household as Shen Zejun's personal assistant and did everything she could to seduce him.
Once Shen Zejun fell in love with her, she would persuade him to break off their engagement himself.
She planned meticulously, and Shen Zejun did indeed prove unable to resist her charms, gradually falling into her trap.
When they were caught up in the moment, Xia Tiantian curled up in Shen Zejun's arms and said pitifully, "If you really love me, go break off your engagement to that ugly woman in Shanghai."
Shen Zejun narrowed his eyes. "Isn't it a little rude to talk about yourself that way?"
Xia Tiantian: "???"
Shen Zejun lowered his head, their breaths mingling. "Had enough fun, Mrs. Shen?"
Xia Tiantian: "%#*^$+w...!!!"
Let go of me!!!

Shen Zejun had never been interested in the Xia family and had no intention of going through with the marriage alliance.
Then he saw the young lady of the Xia family take off her pretty dress, put on a plain white T-shirt, and come all the way to Beijing to work as his assistant, doing everything she could to flirt with him.
He found it amusing, so he went along with her plan and played along.
At first, he couldn't see through the young lady of the Xia family's motives.
Later, he finally understood: all her seduction today was meant to help her draw a clean line between them tomorrow.
Shen Zejun narrowed his eyes.
They could have stayed out of each other's way...
But now, he'd changed his mind...
