Fortunately, with staff from the television station present to witness it, she was spared by the proctor and allowed to enter the exam room at the very last minute, ensuring her exam wasn't delayed. Her courageous and righteous deed not only earned her an invitation to participate in the filming of a special program called "Springwater Family" by the local TV station-where she earned her first pot of gold-but it also brought her into contact with the person she had harbored a crush on for a long time. The two met at the most beautiful age and spent the sweetest, most wonderful times together. However, after being admitted to their ideal universities, they were forced to separate due to a sudden change in his family's circumstances. Years later, to cope with her elders pressuring her to marry, she agreed to a contract marriage with someone else.

Just as she and Zhao Yuncheng negotiated the terms of the marriage and were about to sign the document, they were interrupted in an instant. With deep, brooding eyes and a hint of hidden anger, Gu Bin said, "A contract marriage-I am far more suitable than him."
