Synopsis

The heir of the Jiang Group, Jiang Muchen, is forced to marry Xia Yu, the granddaughter of his grandfather's comrade.

When Jiang Muchen sees Xia Yu, a village girl, he can hardly believe that this is the arranged marriage set up by his grandfather.

Recap

Lin Wanbai is a female celebrity, and for many years, there has only been one woman by Jiang Muchen's side. Rumors have it that she will become Jiang Muchen's fiancée. Xia Yu is a girl from a fishing village who enjoys a simple and happy life. She thinks she has good friends, but they always ask her to do the work while they go off to play. Xia Yu believed that she had a reliable fiancé in A Qiang, but he decided to marry another woman, A Zhen, because A Zhen's father could arrange a job for him at a factory in town. Xia Yu vowed to find a man who is a thousand times better than A Qiang and cried tears of sadness.

Jiang's Group is about to hold a shareholder meeting, and reporters are eager to interview Jiang Muchen to find out if he will become the successor of the Jiang family. However, Jiang Muchen did not say anything and went straight to see Jiang's father when he met the general manager who came out to greet him.

Jiang Anchen is the second young master of the Jiang family and has always wanted to compete with Jiang Muchen for the right to inherit the company. Learning that Jiang Muchen has secured the Qinghe Resort project, he feels even worse and is full of resentment. He intentionally criticizes Jiang Muchen, saying that he can take over the company in just two years. Jiang Muchen warns Jiang Anchen to be careful, but he did not expect that Jiang's father would require the successor to marry Xia Yu.

A Zhen stole A Qiang and insulted Xia Yu. Xia Yu hastily said that she would find Jiang Muchen to be her man, causing everyone to laugh. Unexpectedly, Jiang Muchen really came driving.

Jiang Anchen learned that he must marry Xia Yu in order to inherit, so he rushed to the fishing village ahead of time. Just as he was about to take Xia Yu's hand, Jiang Muchen arrived. The two brothers directly started fighting over Xia Yu in front of everyone, leaving the crowd stunned. In the end, Jiang Muchen's superior skills allowed him to force Jiang Anchen to retreat by making him lose ten million yuan per minute. He then picked up Xia Yu from the ground and asked her to be his fiancée.

After learning that A Zhen's father was only a small factory manager under the Jiang Corporation, and that she was bullying Xia Yu, Jiang Muchen didn't let her off the hook. He had A Zhen tell her father to come see him with a resignation letter the next day. A Zhen was humiliated and blamed A Qiang for the situation.

Jiang Muchen took Xia Yu into his car to go see his grandfather. Xia Yu didn't want to go, as they didn't even know each other. However, Jiang Muchen insisted that she become his fiancée. Xia Yu didn't know why Jiang Muchen liked her, but she could tell that he was determined to have her, so she confidently reminded him to control his feelings for her or she wouldn't be able to handle it. This caused Jiang Muchen to rub his forehead in frustration.

Despite being forced to leave by Jiang Muchen's threats, Jiang Anchen was still determined to win Xia Yu over. So, he purposely leaked information to Lin Wanbai, telling her to intercept Jiang Muchen at the Lin family's house.

Lin Wanbai had originally thought that Xia Yu was a great beauty, so she took out her best dress to compete with her. However, she didn't expect Xia Yu to be a little yellow-haired girl who didn't even have the courage to look at her directly. Lin Wanbai then grabbed Jiang Muchen's hand and walked away, leaving Chuanguan behind to lead Xia Yu to follow them to meet Jiang's father.

Jiang's father had very poor eyesight, and he thought that the person next to Jiang Muchen was Xia Yu. He immediately praised them for being a perfect match. But when he found out that it was actually Xia Yu, he could only say that she looked just like how she did in her childhood. He quickly left to let Jiang Muchen and Xia Yu get to know each other, but Jiang Muchen paid no attention to Xia Yu and instead walked away with Lin Wanbai.

Left alone and bored at home, Xia Yu tried to strike up a conversation with the servants, but they ignored her. She couldn't help but think that the family was very rude. Suddenly, she stepped on a wet spot that the servant had just cleaned, and she was about to fall hard when Jiang Anchen appeared and rescued her.

Xia Yu looked at the handsome Jiang Anchen and thought he was considerate and gentle. Jiang Anchen, in order to make Xia Yu like him, pretended that he didn't smell the bad odor coming from her and showed her his charming smile. Xia Yu was torn between choosing Jiang Muchen or Jiang Anchen, but before she could decide, Jiang Anchen couldn't resist any longer and they both fell to the ground.

That night, there was a banquet, and Jiang Anchen specially took Xia Yu to choose a dress, but she was never satisfied. At this moment, Jiang Muchen brought the dress that Jiang Anchen's mother had worn before, which had caused the Jiang family to lose face.

While Jiang Muchen helped Xia Yu pick out a good dress, he also carefully matched a bracelet for her. The salesperson couldn't stop complimenting Xia Yu's good fortune, as Jiang Muchen was really putting in effort for a woman for the first time. Xia Yu felt very happy inside when she heard this. After seeing Jiang Muchen, Xia Yu, who wasn't used to wearing high heels, accidentally twisted her ankle. Luckily, Jiang Muchen quickly held her, which made her blush and her heart race, and also gave her a different kind of affection for him.

Lin Wanbai wore a decent dress and held Jiang Muchen's hand to attend the banquet, leaving Xia Yu alone. Jiang Anchen received the news that Jiang Lao Ye no longer forced the heir to marry Xia Yu, so he lost interest in Xia Yu. Xia Yu waited until the shop closed and nobody came, so she had to wait outside. But by then it was raining heavily and the temperature had dropped sharply, making Xia Yu very cold. She tried calling Jiang Anchen but nobody answered the phone.

Feeling sad, Xia Yu walked into the rain and planned to walk back by herself. She didn't notice that there was a car coming from behind and almost got hit. The bracelet on her hand fell onto the road, but she didn't notice it. When Xia Yu saw Jiang Muchen coming to find her, she couldn't help but cry loudly while holding him.

Jiang Muchen came to find her, but his intentions were not pure. He only did it because if Xia Yu didn't appear in this dress, then his plan would be useless. Unexpectedly, Jiang Lao Ye announced at the banquet that he would hold Jiang Anchen and Xia Yu's engagement ceremony next month.

Grandpa Jiang announced the engagement of Jiang Anchen and Xia Yu, which surprised many people, especially Jiang Anchen himself. He didn't understand why his grandfather suddenly wanted him to marry Xia Yu. Lin Wanbai was overjoyed because now no one would compete with her for Jiang Muchen.

Jiang Muchen comforted Xia Yu and wanted her to attend the banquet before it ended. But the news of Jiang Anchen and Xia Yu's engagement made him change his mind. He saw a scratch on Xia Yu's hand, so he called his personal doctor to come to his house and took Xia Yu back to his own home.

It was the first time the personal doctor had seen Jiang Muchen bring a girl home, and he teased Jiang Muchen for making such a big fuss over such a small wound. If they had come any later, the wound would have already healed. After the doctor left, Xia Yu asked to go home, so Jiang Muchen drove her back to the village. They chatted in the car, and Jiang Muchen told her about Grandpa Jiang wanting Jiang Anchen to marry Xia Yu. Xia Yu didn't want that and believed that marriage had to be between two people who loved each other, and that she wanted to make her own decisions about her own marriage.

When Xia Yu returned to the fishing village, she found that the old house had been demolished and she had nowhere to live. She also found out from Manager Chuan that she had to pay for the new house herself, and she fainted. Jiang Muchen took Xia Yu back to his home and confronted his grandfather, questioning why he always forced people, including Xia Yu, to do things they didn't want to do.

Xia Yu moved into the Jiang family's house and looked at the big and beautiful room while wearing pretty clothes and lying on a soft bed. She thought for the first time that it was not bad to live in the Jiang family. The manager noticed that Jiang Anchen was in the room and quickly found an excuse to leave. Xia Yu was still enjoying herself and didn't know what was going on when Jiang Anchen suddenly appeared, scaring her.

Jiang Anchen believed that Xia Yu was given to him by his grandfather because he didn't want to sacrifice Jiang Muchen's marriage. He was not pleased with Xia Yu and deliberately acted as if he was going to violate her, hoping she would back off. This made Xia Yu feel particularly wronged and she had to refuse Jiang Anchen.

It was time for dinner, and Xia Yu had just come downstairs from her room when Grandpa Jiang arranged for her to sit with Jiang Anchen. Xia Yu was already afraid of Jiang Anchen, and he deliberately waved his knife and fork to scare her. She immediately sat next to An Muchen and mistakenly drank white wine as water to calm herself down, but ended up getting drunk. She accidentally entered An Muchen's room, who had just finished taking a shower, and he immediately carried her out and warned her not to enter other people's rooms.

Jiang Anchen came up with another bad idea and made Xia Yu work as a maid in the Jiang family to offset her accommodation costs. Xia Yu had no choice but to endure his mistreatment due to her financial difficulties.

Xia Yu was deliberately tricked by Jiang Anchen into becoming a housekeeper for the Jiang family, and she wanted to retaliate by making Jiang Anchen sickeningly disgusted with her. The way Jiang Anchen reacted that day made Xia Yu feel like he hated her the most, so she decided to observe his habits carefully, take notes on the implementation details, and start by creating opportunities for chance encounters, then apply a beauty spot near her eye and pretend to get drunk and fall into Jiang Anchen's arms.

Xia Yu knew that Jiang Anchen had a habit of drinking red wine every night, so she picked that time to chug a bottle of wine herself and soon fell asleep on the couch due to being drunk. Jiang Muchen wanted to explain the incident from that day to Xia Yu, but accidentally discovered Xia Yu's notes and thought she was trying to seduce him. When Xia Yu kissed his lips and called out Jiang Anchen's name, he was very angry and let Xia Yu know who he really was. Xia Yu recognized Jiang Muchen and felt embarrassed, so she couldn't bear to stay in the Jiang family and fled over the wall that night, but unexpectedly ran into Jiang Anchen who had just returned from a nightclub.

At this point, Jiang Anchen had already drunk quite a bit, and he was startled when he saw Xia Yu coming down the stairs and falling into his arms. Jiang Anchen found Xia Yu too heavy, while Xia Yu was shocked by the sight of him.

Jiang Muchen was upset by the kiss from Xia Yu just now and accidentally saw Jiang Anchen hugging Xia Yu downstairs, so he punched the glass door in anger.

Jiang Anchen noticed the bag on Xia Yu's back and suspected that she had stolen something. He wanted to escape from the Jiang family, so he dumped the contents of Xia Yu's bag and found that it was just a pile of old clothes in his eyes. He guessed that Xia Yu really wanted to leave the Jiang family, so he helped Xia Yu come up with ideas. When Jiang Muchen saw the two of them together, he was burning with jealousy and almost smashed the door.

Jiang Anchen escorted Xia Yu back to the fishing village and was afraid that she would return to the Jiang family, so they made a promise. Xia Yu took out her ID card and stayed at the guesthouse at the village entrance. She was seen by a fishing village woman who didn't get along with her next door, and she quickly told A Zhen the news.

A Zhen learned that Xia Yu was really sent back by Jiang Anchen. When Jiang Anchen got off the car, he gave Xia Yu a stack of money, thinking that she was despised by the Jiang family. So she conspired with several other fishing village women to teach Xia Yu a lesson.

When Jiang Muchen saw Jiang Anchen come back alone, he knew that Xia Yu had already left the Jiang family, but he thought that Jiang Anchen had driven Xia Yu away. He warned Jiang Anchen to treat Xia Yu better. Jiang Anchen realized that something was wrong with Jiang Muchen, so he deliberately provoked him and suggested that he marry Xia Yu. Unexpectedly, Jiang Muchen was actually provoked.

The fishing village women, under the name of A Qiang, arranged for Xia Yu to meet at the warehouse at nine o'clock at night. Although Xia Yu suspected that A Qiang had something to do with her, she still went to the appointment. In the warehouse, A Zhen and others humiliated her, pressing her head into a bucket of water until Xia Yu fainted, before quickly leaving.

Jiang Muchen learned that Xia Yu had checked into the guesthouse in the fishing village and disappeared within half a day. He also heard that several women were secretly following her. Realizing that something was wrong, he immediately ordered his subordinates to investigate the situation.

Jiang Muchen checked the time and found that it was already late. He urged the driver to drive faster and wondered where Xia Yu had gone. He rushed to the fishing village and anxiously called out her name while searching everywhere. Xia Yu, who was in the warehouse, heard Jiang Muchen's shout and quickly kicked a metal bucket to make a sound. Jiang Muchen heard the noise, kicked the door with all his strength, and finally opened it. He saw Xia Yu lying on the ground in a sorry state, and his heart ached for her. He quickly untied the rope from her body and comforted her to hold on. Xia Yu recognized Jiang Muchen in front of her and hugged his neck tightly, crying and expressing her fear and uneasiness.

Jiang Muchen took Xia Yu back to his home and ordered the head manager, Chuan, to call back Doctor Ji. Jiang Anchen was very surprised to see Xia Yu in such a state. When Jiang Muchen saw him like this, he became angry and warned him to pray that Xia Yu would be okay, or else he would make him suffer.

Xia Yu's body temperature remained too high, and Jiang Muchen stayed by her side all night until she woke up, finally putting his mind at ease. Jiang Muchen asked Xia Yu to tidy up and took her to a place. Xia Yu happily got in the car but was surprised when she realized they were headed towards the fishing village. The car stopped in front of the warehouse, and Xia Yu couldn't help but feel curious.

Jiang Muchen brought Xia Yu back to the warehouse. Xia Yu learned that it was for revenge on her behalf, but she didn't want it to happen. Jiang Muchen insisted, and his men had already captured the person who harmed Xia Yu that day. They prepared a bucket of water mixed with sewage for each of them and forced them to drink it. If they refused to drink it, their heads were forcefully pressed into the bucket.

Xia Yu pleaded for mercy for A Zhen and the others, saying that she was no longer angry. But Jiang Muchen did not allow it because he had warned A Zhen before, and he did not expect her to hurt Xia Yu again. He wanted them to remember this profound lesson. To take care of Xia Yu's feelings, Jiang Muchen threatened A Zhen with her father's position. He would demote A Zhen's father if she drank less than the others. A Zhen quickly lowered her head and drank the dirty water. The other two, fearing that they would be given more, drank desperately. Xia Yu pleaded for mercy again, and Jiang Muchen ordered his men to stop. He warned them that this was the last time, and if they offended again, he would make them wish they were dead.

Jiang Anchen thought and thought and realized that Xia Yu might become his sister-in-law. To make up for his mistake, he took several thugs to find A Zhen and the others and tortured them again before finally letting them go.

When Jiang's father learned that Xia Yu had been bullied, he arranged for Manager Chuan to take revenge on her behalf. By the time Manager Chuan found A Zhen and the others, they were already in a sorry state. Manager Chuan decided to let them go but warned them to show respect when they see Xia Yu in the future.
