"The biggest blessing in my life was meeting you. The greatest misfortune was hurting you." — Ye Feimo

On the night she finally confessed her feelings, Wen Nuan entered the wrong hotel room—and woke up in the arms of a stranger.

Drunk, confused, and heartbroken, she never expected that one night to bind her to the ruthless and enigmatic CEO, Ye Feimo.

To find her, he boldly posted a half-naked ad of her across the city. To own her, he made her sign a contract as his substitute lover.

She thought it was love. He only saw her as a stand-in.

When the woman he truly loved returned, Wen Nuan vanished without a trace.

But it was already too late.
Ye Feimo finally realized that the only woman he truly loved... was the one he let go.

The CEO's Substitute Ex-Wife

Artists discussed amongst themselves. "Beauty in the City" had been a big winner, yet Wen Nuan alone received nothing, which indeed felt quite awkward.

When reporters came for interviews, Wen Nuan behaved with great grace, always smiling. When asked about the opinions of other award-winning actors, Wen Nuan genuinely offered her affirmation and congratulations.

Peng Shuyao came over, a smile on her face, and said, with the wisdom of experience, "You've only been in the industry for a few months. Don't be too concerned about gains and losses. There will be many more such occasions in the future, and many more such awards. Just accept the challenge."

Wen Nuan merely smiled, unable to help but wonder if they all thought of her as fragile. She was indeed disappointed, but it wasn't that serious, was it? Even her senior colleague came to show concern.
