Coaxing You Into Marriage

share time: 2026-02-10 12:30:49

Chen Ci, a 30-year-old advertising director, is driven to the brink by her parents' relentless marriage pressure. She runs into Song Yubo, her childhood friend who just returned from abroad—the boy she once called a "tag-along" is now a cold, suit-clad lawyer. Song Yubo offers a "fake couple" deal to help her fend off the matchmakers: "I'll get you out of this, but you have to do as I say." But as they spend time together, Chen Ci notices Song Yubo's "pretend" is getting more and more real: he brings her hot taro balls when she works late, slams the table and says "How dare you yell at my girl" when she's bullied by clients, and even shoves a ring into her hand when her ex comes back: "Want to try being real?" Just as Chen Ci lets go of her fear of marriage, she accidentally finds Song Yubo's old wallet—inside is her 17-year-old photo booth picture with a note on the back: "When I grow up, I'll marry you." It turns out this "pretend" is Song Yubo's ten-year plan to "coax" her into marriage. He was never "helping"—he finally dared to come back and turn his childhood promise into reality.
