Lin Wanqing, who returned from studying abroad, had her wedding hijacked in public by her groom Shen Yan's sworn sister Xie Tang. Not only did Shen Yan condone Xie Tang, but he also used the Lin family firm as leverage to force Lin Wanqing to endure it. Lin Wanqing resolutely tore off her bridal veil to call off the engagement, turning instead to ally and marry Warlord Lu Huaizhou, who had secretly loved her all along. After marriage, the two joined forces to strike back against the schemes of the Shen family and Xie Tang, gradually uncovering the truth behind Lin Wanqing's father's shipwreck years ago, and finally finding out that it was a conspiracy plotted by Shen's mother and the third uncle. After the villains faced justice, Lin Wanqing took charge of the Lin family firm, reaping a happy ending with Lu Huaizhou in their mutual devotion.
