Song Meiqi, an idol worn down by betrayal and quiet tragedies, has long stopped believing in something as fragile as love. Pushed by family and circumstance, the two enter a contract relationship—one built on convenience, not affection. But in a romance built on obligation, can two guarded, wounded hearts discover something real in what was never meant to be… and endure the challenges that stand in their way?

Olivia Chen has spent four years building a career at Hayes & Associates, sacrificing everything relationships, sleep, her mother's approval for a shot at junior partnership. When Declan Kane acquires her firm in a hostile takeover, she expects to be fired like everyone else. Instead, he offers her a position on his personal team. With one impossible condition: marry him for one year. Declan needs a wife to fulfill his grandfather's will and claim controlling shares of Kane Capital before his thirty-fifth birthday. Olivia needs money, stability, and a chance to save her career. The arrangement seems simple: live together, play happy couple in public, divorce quietly after twelve months. But living with Declan Kane means sharing his penthouse, his schedule, his secrets. It means watching the walls he's built crumble, one late-night conversation at a time. It means pretending to love him while desperately trying not to actually fall. And when his family's schemes threaten everything they've built, Olivia must decide: walk away with the money and her heart intact, or risk everything on a man who's never let anyone close enough to stay.

David, a quiet and unassuming young man from Katni, moves to Jabalpur for a job at a courier company. In search of accommodation, he meets Ana, who agrees to rent him her apartment. A friendship slowly begins between them. When David’s mother learns he has settled down, she visits him and insists he consider marrying Eva, the daughter of her friend. Though David objects, out of respect for his mother’s delicate emotional state, he agrees to meet Eva—but devises a plan to sabotage the proposal by appearing in dishevelled clothing and behaving frivolously. Eva is amused, but David’s mother is humiliated. The proposal is rejected, and she returns home in anger. David and Ana’s relationship gradually deepens. He learns about her troubled past: a missing mother and an alcoholic father. Just as a bond begins to take shape between them, David is transferred to Bargi, a rural town outside Jabalpur. Concerned by the change, Ana promises to visit him, reassuring both David and his mother. David moves, and in time, adapts to the slower pace of village life. In Bargi, David befriends an elderly woman affectionately called Old Mother. Known for her kindness, she quickly grows fond of David and invites him into her life. He also meets Sheila, her reclusive housekeeper, a woman weighed down by sorrow and silence. As David becomes part of their world, he learns that Old Mother’s son, Peter, lives in London and hasn’t visited in three years. Over time, David uncovers Sheila’s past and her reasons for living in isolation. One rainy day, Ana visits David in Bargi. Caught in the worsening weather, he takes her to Old Mother’s home for shelter. There, Ana is stunned to find that Sheila is her long-lost mother. A painful confrontation ensues. Ana accuses Sheila of abandonment, while Sheila explains she fled due to Ana’s abusive father. Old Mother urges Sheila to return to Jabalpur, but she refuses, fearing her past. Tensions escalate, and in the aftermath of a bitter argument, Sheila quietly passes away in the night. Ana is devastated by her mother’s death and blames herself. Old Mother consoles her and travels with her to Jabalpur to share the news with her father. Meanwhile, David, consumed with guilt for bringing Ana to the house, isolates himself. Weeks later, he quietly visits the large house and finds Peter, now returned from London, working in the garden. Old Mother thanks David for posting the letter that brought her son back—though David never sent one. Puzzled, he realizes it was Ana who had written the letter. Old Mother gently confronts David about his absence. Suspecting unresolved feelings between him and Ana, she misinterprets his silence as indifference. To clarify matters, she calls Ana to walk with David and explain everything. David is surprised to see her, and during their walk, Ana shares that she plans to go to London and become engaged to Peter. She attributes her decision to the kindness and support she received from Old Mother after Sheila’s death. David, heartbroken and unable to express his own feelings, quietly accepts the situation. As he prepares to leave the large house, Old Mother hands him an envelope and asks him to deliver it to a family in the village. When David arrives at the house, he is surprised to see Eva, the woman he once tried to avoid marrying. Their reunion is unexpectedly warm. As they walk together afterward, they laugh about their first awkward meeting.

Flora Bloom, who was betrayed and killed by her boyfriend in her past life, is reborn with a peerless spatial dimension back to the time before the crisis, hoarding food, raising a child, and tearing apart scumbag men and manipulative women. Originally, she just wanted to raise a child and low-key fight zombies and level up together with her family. But she discovered that she was unexpectedly falling step by step into a tender trap meticulously designed by a certain sly and scheming man. Flora Bloom looked at the vast space within her sea of consciousness; it had a farmhouse courtyard, fields, and a Spirit River, but it just lacked a bit of vitality. So, a fat, sky-flying mantis? Collect! A rare little white tiger that can discharge electricity? Collect! A behemoth spirit crocodile with its young? Collect! As long as it's alive and edible, collect, collect, collect them all! Endless scumbags and vile women, a shameless and deeply scheming leader, all wanting to use her to attack zombies and obtain more Crystal Cores for their own gain? Your shameless, worthless life? Hand it over.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
