The Heir's Contract

On the day the founder of a Shanghai business empire dies, a small neighborhood bakery is given thirty days to pay off an impossible debt. Su Wanqing, a 27-year-old baker supporting her mother and younger brother, watches the family business slide toward foreclosure — until a stranger in a suit arrives with an absurd proposal: Gu Chengyan, heir to the Yunsheng conglomerate, must marry to receive his inheritance, and his grandfather's will names only one bride. Her. Six months of marriage on paper: he clears the debts, she saves the bakery, no one falls in love — it's in the contract. But between board inspections, a ravenous press, and a cousin who will stop at nothing to prove the marriage is a sham, the two discover that faking intimacy is more dangerous than feeling it. And neither of them read the last page of what they signed. A vertical microdrama about debts that aren't only money, photographs two families keep hidden, and a contract whose most important clause is the one no one saw.
