Lu Wan feels that her older brother has been acting strangely lately.
The Marquis of Yongning, Lu Pan, has always been so disciplined and bound by propriety that the rules of etiquette are etched into his bones. He would never fall for a poor girl of humble birth who is intent on currying favor with the powerful and has nothing to her name.
At the same time, though, Lu Wan has noticed all sorts of suspicious things about Lu Pan:
First, Lu Pan actually defended Jiang Wan in public.
Second, Lu Pan actually lost his temper with her again and again for Jiang Wan's sake.
Third, Lu Pan actually let Jiang Wan come and go freely from the marquis's residence, even into his study.
As the eldest daughter of the marquis's household, Lu Wan simply cannot stand to see her brother sink so low.
More importantly,
Lu Pan sternly forbids her from associating with a poor scholar, yet turns around and finds himself a woman even poorer than that.
A double standard!
Lu Wan is certain that every time Jiang Wan approaches Lu Pan, she has some ulterior motive.
But Lu Pan clearly doesn't think so.
In his eyes, Jiang Wan may be poor, but she has integrity. She loves money, but earns it honestly. Most importantly, Jiang Wan is truly beautiful.
So Lu Pan keeps creating opportunities for himself to be with Jiang Wan.
Does he really not know whether Jiang Wan is after the powerful?
He's right here, a powerful man in the flesh, and she hasn't tried to ingratiate herself with him at all.
How sad.
-
Jiang Wan is busy every day, doing everything she can to earn money and support her family.
There are simply too many people at home dragging her down, so she has to seize every opportunity, even sneaking into all sorts of high-society banquets to meet the powerful people of the capital.
Before she knows it, she's met the most powerful man in the capital.
Jiang Wan never meant to get involved with someone so important, but somehow the two of them keep running into each other.
Is this fate?
Then she'd better take it seriously!
-
Jiang Wan: Breathe.
Lu Pan: What a masterful move!
The leads are each other's one and only.

Abstinent elite CEO Jiang Jinbai x sweet policewoman Xu Qinghe
-
On the first day back after the National Day holiday, the entire stock market is in the red.
Xu Qinghe has just finished work. Staring at a screen full of disastrous red candlesticks, she instantly loses it. Her gains vanish overnight, and she's so badly in the red that she's on the verge of having an emotional breakdown.
Jiang Jinbai, who came along to have his statement taken, stands beside her and adjusts his gold-rimmed glasses. "Sell at a loss, or trust me this once?"
Under Jiang Jinbai's resolute gaze, Xu Qinghe takes his hand.
The next day, her heavily invested stock, which had been teetering on the edge of its daily limit, is aggressively driven up and hits the limit, its red figures dazzling.
After experiencing the wildest ups and downs of her life, Xu Qinghe makes the biggest decision of her life: she and Jiang Jinbai will marry in a whirlwind wedding.
-
Everyone knows that Jiang Jinbai, the heir apparent to the Jiashi Group, is young and accomplished. His aloof aura warns people to keep their distance, making him the unattainable dream of countless eligible young women.
Until the company's New Year's Eve gala. Snow drifts through the air, and the lights shine brilliantly.
With everyone's eyes on him, Jiang Jinbai takes the stage to give a speech, cool and dignified, commanding the room.
A murmur suddenly ripples through the audience.
Someone has spotted a wedding ring plainly visible on Jiang Jinbai's left ring finger.
For a moment, everyone in the company is asking: Which lucky heiress is she?
Only after the banquet ends does someone happen to see Jiang Jinbai, who had looked so composed moments ago, suddenly hurry over in a corner by the company's back entrance and embrace a stunning woman in a police uniform.
The beauty looks up, smiling with crinkled eyes, rises onto her toes, and plants a sweet, soft kiss on his cheek.
Jiang Jinbai gently strokes the top of her head, his eyes filled with barely contained passion and restraint.
"Good girl. There are too many people outside. We'll have a proper kiss when we get home."
-
Xu Qinghe presses her palms together: I hope that while I'm watching the market, a 188-centimeter hotshot investor in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses suddenly appears, gently takes my hand, and says, "Baby, buy this one."
Jiang Jinbai: Baby, buy this one. I'll push it to the daily limit for you.
-
"General Manager, we've found out why Madam has been suffering from insomnia and anxiety lately."
"Tell me."
"She's stuck holding another stock."
"Which one did she buy? Have our team push it to the daily limit."
-
Told from the heroine's perspective: marriage first, love later. From the hero's perspective: a long-planned pursuit.
Theme: They are each other's match and each other's salvation.
Ahhhh, Kaiwen Daji 😆😆😆
