In a scandalous twist of a high-society marriage arrangement, Yan Jingxi finds herself unexpectedly delivered to her fiancé's domineering uncle, Lu Muqing. When reporters burst into the room, they catch her nestled comfortably in his arms, smirking as she declares, "My fiancé isn't up to the task, so I'm switching sides." After the reporters leave, she high-fives him, sealing their secret alliance. "Thanks for helping me take down the trash," she says. But Lu Muqing has other plans, slipping a ring onto her finger: "Marry me, and we'll take them down together."
