"​​Xia Anran married into the Gu family as a substitute for the Liu family's eldest daughter. The groom, Gu Xizhou—the Gu family's eldest son—had been left comatose after a car accident two years prior. Impressed by Xia Anran's quiet devotion in caring for her vegetative husband, her mother-in-law doted on her excessively.​​ ​​Xia Anran's motives were simple: be a dutiful wife, tend to her husband, embrace widowhood-in-life, and perhaps one day inherit his wealth if he passed away. She devoted herself to his care with meticulous attention.​​ ​​One day, arriving at his hospital room, she found the bed empty. Stunned, she assumed he had died—especially when her mother-in-law and the housekeeper approached with red-rimmed eyes. Xia Anran burst into tears, delivering a heartfelt speech to comfort her mother-in-law... only for Gu Xizhou to appear behind her, alive and well. Thus began their unexpected married life."
