She is the second daughter of the Lan Conglomerate, a rich heiress everyone envies. Even the few people she casually names among her acquaintances are figures everyone clamors to meet. But when her boyfriend gets married, the bride isn't her, and this highborn young lady is cruelly dumped.
He is the chairman of the Qian Xun Group, the eldest son of the wealthy and powerful Huo family, a textbook rich heir. Who could have guessed that after he picked a wedding date, his bride would run away on the very day they were supposed to register their marriage, leaving him abandoned too?
The funny thing is, he is her almost-brother-in-law.
Seeing her furious and forlorn almost-brother-in-law, she suddenly mocks him. “We're both people who've been dumped. We might as well make a pair.”
He presses his lips together and says nothing.
But the next day, he takes her to the Civil Affairs Bureau with her household registration book and marries her, making her take the place of her runaway sister as his bride.

“Ruo Xi, I only just realized that I've always loved you. Do you know that you're all I think about, every moment of every day? I married her only so I could secure my position in the company.” Her ex-boyfriend holds her hand and quietly explains why he betrayed her back then.
Before she can do anything, a strong hand shoots out of nowhere and viciously seizes her ex-boyfriend's wrist. He cries out in pain, drawing the attention of everyone at the banquet.
Standing beside her, he wraps an arm around her shoulders and smiles tenderly. “Honey, tell him who I am to you.”
Looking at his handsome face and noble bearing, with two bodyguards following behind him, her ex-boyfriend suddenly seems to understand. His face turns ashen.
(The Spoiling Arc)
“Master, Madam said something very strange today.” The butler follows him, reporting on her daily activities.
“What did she say?”
“Madam said she wondered whether snow in June is beautiful.” After speaking, the butler carefully watches his expression. It's the height of summer in June; how could it possibly snow?
He presses his lips together again, says nothing, and quietly goes upstairs.
The next day.
She has just walked out of the main house when she freezes. The sun hangs high overhead, yet snow covers the vast courtyard everywhere, a blanket of white just like the depths of winter. Even the sky is filled with countless dancing “snowflakes,” a beautiful snowfall stretching as far as the eye can see.
