Zhang Ying is young, beautiful, and widely recognized as a leading figure in the legal world.
Beautiful and accomplished women are never short of admirers, and even less so when she also happens to be the beloved only daughter of the richest family in the country.
Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, the heiress has never had to take a loss in anything. Whatever she wants has always been within reach.
Except for...
Pei Jueming, the dazzling superstar on the screen.
Zhang Ying and Pei Jueming met when they were young and had a passionate romance.
Now, they have been broken up for five years.
Their breakup was so ugly that it is no surprise their reunion turns into a heated confrontation.
The heiress wants to live freely and with dignity.
So after the breakup, she never once reached out to the ex she could not forget, and she never turned away any suitors who showed interest in her.

Zhang Ying's family arranged for her to meet a potential match.
She had just met with a client and was sitting in a cafe discussing case details with a senior she knew.
A pair of cool, jade-white hands appeared in front of her without warning and tapped on the table.
The moment Zhang Ying looked up, the person said, "Hello, Miss Zhang. I'm the marriage candidate your family arranged for you."
The person standing before her was none other than Pei Jueming, her ex of five years.
Zhang Ying arched a brow, amused.
He looked utterly cool and indifferent on the surface, but in reality, he was so jealous he was practically making himself sick with it.

Pei Jueming has a congenital heart condition and is pale year-round.
He avoids strong emotions, dislikes raising his voice, and cannot handle being startled or upset. The people around him almost all think he is terribly dull.
Yet this man has an exceptionally striking face, enough to make even Zhang Ying want to approach him.
And Pei Jueming is a master at acting like a helpless, scheming little green tea in front of Zhang Ying. They were once the perfect couple.
Five years was enough to turn a boy who had barely outgrown his youth into a national superstar.
Zhang Ying could tell that Pei Jueming had become much more bad-tempered since their breakup, his air of detachment and weariness with the world even stronger.
He was even more stunning than he had been when they were young, and he had once again captured Zhang Ying's attention.
Zhang Ying has money and more than enough connections and resources.
If this frail, fragile-looking superstar, her beloved white moonlight, is willing to marry her...
She thinks she can graciously agree to this so-called arranged marriage.
tips:
Everyone is pure, everyone. The male lead is an epic-level hopeless romantic. The man gets hurt, not the woman. The female lead has plenty of flirtatious prospects, and there will be countless rounds of men competing for her and tearing each other apart.
