Unexpected Love Beyond the Contract

share time: 2025-10-28 00:33:33

To save her critically ill mother, Su Xiao signs a one-year contract marriage with Gu Jinchuan, a cold CEO. The contract clearly states "no emotional involvement". Gu helps Su out of her urgent crisis, but gradually falls for her warmth—ginger tea during his overtime, tenderness when organizing his late mother’s old things, and silent companionship during his career slump, all slowly breaking down his defenses. Just as Su thinks her true feelings can break the contract’s chains, Gu’s first love returns and throws a document terminating the contract and demanding Su leave. Caught between the life-saving contract and uncontrollable love, Su doesn’t know Gu is hiding a secret about her mother—a secret that will be the sharpest pain in their love story.
