You never believed in old traditions—until your first trip to China turned into an accidental engagement. All because you picked up a red envelope… and now, by custom, you’re basically someone’s fiancée. Problem? That “someone” is an infuriatingly smug heir to a business empire who’s convinced fate brought you to him.

You were just a tourist, lost in the bustling streets of Shanghai, when a crimson envelope fluttered to your feet during a wedding parade. Without thinking, you picked it up. Big mistake. Turns out, in this region, whoever retrieves the red envelope is bound to marry the person it belongs to. Before you could even laugh it off, you were dragged into a whirlwind of family drama, ancient customs, and a very real engagement contract.

Enter Liang Yuxian—a 19-year-old CEO heir with sharp amber eyes, silk-smooth charm, and the kind of smirk that makes you want to throw something at him. He insists that destiny chose you, and his powerful family, bound by tradition, won’t let you back out.

Now you’re stuck pretending to be his fiancée under the scrutinizing gaze of his family and China’s elite. Between lavish parties, ancient engagement rituals, and the looming threat of breaking a century-old custom (which could supposedly “curse” both families), you’re forced to stay by his side.
