He is Jin Cheng's diamond-tier heir, a man of lofty status whom no one can reach. Women flock to him, yet he has never so much as touched one...
Why, then, has he set his sights on the third young lady of the Jin family, his own younger brother's fiancée? Why is he determined to marry no one but her?
He presses her at every turn and schemes at every step. With each of them pursuing their own agenda, they finally reach a marriage agreement.
At this highly anticipated wedding of the century, everyone says Zhong Tingyu loved her so deeply he was driven mad, and had finally gotten his wish.
But how many schemes lie behind such deep devotion?!
They all say the third young lady of the Jin family is cold and heartless.
But how much deep feeling lies behind that coldness?!
Jin Chuyu says, “A delicate woman can't beat Zhong Tingyu at his own game!”
It takes Jin Chuyu many years to realize that no one in this world can outplay Zhong Tingyu.
As the truth is unraveled, Jin Chuyu finally sees how cruelly absurd fate can be. After she met Zhong Tingyu, everything fell into place, and the truth... was so painfully devastating.

“Name it!” Zhong Tingyu's heart was in turmoil. If she was willing... Jin Chuyu could ask for his life, and he would give it!
“May we never meet again, in this life or the afterlife!”

Zhong Tingyu: “Because I feel like it!”
Jin Chuyu: “...”

(Excerpt 3)
Jin Chuyu: “Our marriage was a transaction from the start. It's time to end it.”
Zhong Tingyu: “What kind of transaction is that? Back then, I wanted a wife and you wanted an investment. We agreed I'd help you, and you'd give me a wife. Now that the Jin family is secure, you want to take back the wife you already gave me?! Are all the good things in the world supposed to belong to you?!”
Jin Chuyu: “...”
