To save her comatose younger brother, Shi Ning is forced into an arranged marriage with the eldest grandson of the Shen family. On the day of their engagement, she accidentally discovers that her fiancé has long been involved with his secretary—and is even plotting to have her “die in an accident” after the wedding.
Driven into a corner, she turns to his sworn enemy—Shen Lingchen, the most untouchable and dangerous illegitimate son of the Shen family. She approaches him step by step, testing his limits, hoping to use him to survive. Yet time and again, this cold-faced tycoon sees through her schemes… and still chooses to protect her.
What began as a calculated game slowly turns into real feelings. But she cannot afford to love—her marriage was never about love, only about saving her brother.
