Episode 1

Li Xian works as a personal assistant, nanny, mother, butler to her boss, a hotel president in Thailand.  She had known her boss since they were in high school and even then he relied on her to get him out of trouble.  Nothing much had changed.

Lately, she had decided to wean him or over-dependence from her but she knew not at that particular moment when they were negotiating CEO Ning Cheng Ming.

Ning Cheng MIng was not a stranger to Li Xian because he was her professor in college and he can still be a subject of a nightmare for her.  She remembered him telling her sternly that C was not always the answer in a multiple-choice.

During the negotiation, he already said that he was not interested in merging with the hotel.

Li Xian knew how important this transaction was so she followed him unintentionally.

But when he noticed and went to confront her in her car, she immediately backed off and was driving away when she saw from her mirror that Ning Cheng Ming had become a victim of a hit and run.  A lorry had crashed into Ning Cheng Ming’s car.

Li Xian immediately went to help Ning Cheng Ming, who was unconscious.

At the hospital, she was told by the doctors that Ning Cheng Ming was lucky and seemed to have instinctive self-preservation because aside from bruises and trauma in some of his bones, nothing major had befallen him except for a few brain bumps.

But these brain bumps had an adverse effect on Ning Cheng Ming.  He can’t remember her and he doesn’t know who he was.

Taking advantage of the situation, Li Xian told him that he was NIng Cheng Ming and she is Li Xian, his girlfriend.  She further elaborated that she is more like his wife pending marriage.

Episode 2

Li Xian remembered all the times she went to beg Prof Ning Cheng Ming to give her another chance with her schoolwork works but he was unmoved.

Now she was thinking she will carry out her revenge.

Li Xian was talking to Gu Zhe on the phone and she was telling him how good he was, how clever and handsome sot to encourage him after a rough day at the police station.

Ning Cheng Ming did not like her talking with other men and told her to resign from her job.

Li Xian immediately changed the subject.

Episode 3

While Lixian was paying the hospital bill, someone got to Ning Cheng Ming’s room but the thug hurt the wrong guy.

Lixian was sure that the target was Chengming.  Knowing that it was so dangerous for him to stay in the hospital so the next day, she hurriedly dressed him and had him discharged.

Episode 4 & 5

Cheng Ming was curious about his relationship with Li Xian.

She thought that watching many Korean dramas will not go to waste, so she wove a very romantic relationship with Cheng Ming which he bought at first.

The Chinese assassin continues to haunt Cheng Ming which Li Xian noticed.  So she was protecting him from the killer and hiding her secret ‘life’ with Cheng Ming from Gu Zhe.

In the end, even the amnesiac Chengming realised that Li Xian was not really his fiancee.
