Lin Zhao, a poor scholar who just won the top scholar title, is forced by his mother to marry Shen Wantang, his childhood betrothed. To his shock, Shen is the "Sugar King" of the Great Ning Dynasty, controlling half the country's sugar industry—wealthy, sharp-tongued, and cunning. Lin tries to call off the engagement, but Shen pulls out a letter about his father's wrongful death: "Want to clear his name? First, be my 'househusband'." Now, the top scholar is stuck as the face of her sugar shop, juggling officialdom intrigue and Shen's sweet-yet-sarcastic advances. When the truth about why Shen married him—hidden for ten years—comes to light, will their transactional marriage turn into true love or fall apart?
