Gu Xingcheng is the ultimate third-generation heiress, a top-tier playgirl who never catches real feelings and never takes responsibility for men.
At twenty-four, she goes with her girlfriends to check out a brand-new luxury private club. Gu Xingcheng is unimpressed, until she spots a man on the phone in the corridor.
Refined, handsome, and looking absolutely delicious.
Gu Xingcheng walks up and traces a finger down his collar. “If I’m not mistaken, you must be the most expensive man here.”
The man looks at her, his eyes growing more intrigued.
That night, sparks fly between them.
Early the next morning, they each receive a text from an unknown number
[Dear user, you have been placed on the list of misbehaving men and women under supervision.]
[Please immediately cease all playboy/playgirl behavior, including but not limited to flirting, sleeping around, leading people on, and emotional neglect, along with other scummy behavior.]
[If you can’t control yourself, the System will carry out Heaven’s justice and bring down divine punishment, such as broken bones, a limp, illness, or a bloody disaster.]
She swipes away the notification.
He deletes it without a second thought.
Neither takes it seriously. They carry on flirting and going on dates as usual.

He is Huo Jiao: born proud, he never dates and never takes responsibility for women. He’s the biggest playboy among the capital’s wealthy families.
He expects his carefree life to go on forever. Then his family informs him that they’ve found a suitable match for him and orders him to hurry up and get married.
Reluctant as can be, Huo Jiao finally goes to meet his arranged fiancée.
But when he shows up on crutches, he finds that she’s there too, with her arm in a cast.
They stare at each other for a very long time, separated by a frame of plaster casts, crutches, and shoulder supports.
Huo Jiao: ?
Gu Xingcheng: …
Wait, no. Why is it you?!
