During the day, Wen Tang is an exceptionally capable personal secretary for Pei Heyan, attentively taking care of every little detail. At night, Wen Tang becomes Pei Heyan's secret lover, willingly investing all her youth even though it's a relationship that cannot be made public. Everything changes when Pei Heyan personally declares his engagement. Wen Tang chooses to resign and leave. However, a year later at a certain banquet, Wen Tang snatches a collaboration right in front of Pei Heyan. Unable to contain himself, Pei Heyan corners her in the rest room. "Secretary Wen, it's been a year, and now you dare to compete against me?" Wen Tang steps back, her expression calm, "President Pei, I've resigned a long time ago, have you forgotten?" The man moves closer, displeased, trapping her completely in his embrace, "Our relationship can only end if I say it ends." Provoking him means she has to take responsibility!
