[Gorgeous, captivating top saleswoman x aloof professor who keeps everyone at arm's length]
[High-and-mighty beauty + alluring flirt + contract relationship + clear-eyed fall into temptation]
[Sweet romance]
Li Zhao is the top salesperson at a biotech company, and the secret to her success is... her beauty!
"Looks alone may not win over customers, but they're always the first ticket through the door in sales." That's her motto.
But even she, who has always wielded her beauty like a weapon, never expected to be rejected so thoroughly.
The man who rejected her was a handsome, wealthy young professor at a well-known university.
Li Zhao had planned to use her beauty to strike up a conversation with this wealthy client. Who could have guessed he would be the sort of person who kept everyone at arm's length and was incredibly petty? When they first met, he threatened to have her arrested and humiliated her.
But for the sake of her sales figures and her wounded pride, Li Zhao had no choice but to put on a brave face and declare that she would win this client over.
So Li Zhao deliberately kept showing up in front of him from time to time. But it barely helped, and she only managed to make an even worse impression.
Just as Li Zhao thought she'd failed completely, a chance encounter at a blind date arranged by their parents brought them together again. To both their surprise, they learned that they were each other's childhood sweethearts!
While Li Zhao was still marveling at the absurdity of it all, the usually aloof man said, "Miss Li, I'd like to ask you to pretend to be my girlfriend."
Li Zhao chuckled. "Professor Gu, people date for either money or the person. Are you saying you're offering yourself to me?"
At that, Gu Yansheng replied calmly, "Miss Li, I have plenty of money."
And so began their everyday life as a contract couple, with mutual benefit as the premise.
A sweet romance full of flirty tension and lighthearted everyday moments!
