She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.

Shen Qingge has been having a tough time lately. On one hand, rumors about Shen's Jewelry's cutthroat competition are flooding the internet.

Shen's Jewelry's sales were significantly affected during the peak sales seasons of Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day.

The older brother was very angry, and the father even said that if the Shen family could not turn things around this time, the Shen family jewelry would soon decline.

Shen Qingge was dismissed from her post by her father.

She reassured her father that she had not been involved in these online events, including the previous plagiarism incident.

The work was all done by others, and she had no connection with those people who did it; everything was clean and simple.

Shen Zejun was still uneasy and ordered Shen Qingge not to go out unless necessary, and to stay at home and reflect on her mistakes.

Shen Qingge had never been treated like this before.

Her father always doted on her, and even when she made mistakes or acted willfully, he never really did anything to her.

This time the situation was serious, and Shen Qingge dared not throw a tantrum like a spoiled princess anymore. But she was furious inside. Ever since her brother Tingyu brought that Su Maiqi home, she hadn't had a single day of peace.

When Sun Jing bought the design draft last time, she never dreamed it was designed by Su Maiqi. She simply fell in love with the design at first sight and believed it could withstand the test of the market.

However, Shen's Jewelry is a large company and cannot afford to take risks, which is why she deliberately revealed the design company's information to Sun Jing. She knew that with Sun Jing's intelligence and operational skills, she would naturally be able to handle things properly.

That way, if anything goes wrong, the Shen family can escape unscathed.

Despite all her calculations, she hadn't anticipated that the design draft Sun Jing bought belonged to Su Maiqi, giving Bei Chenxing a major weakness. Fortunately, she had prepared in advance, preventing the Shen family from suffering a major setback.

Unfortunately, they were also threatened by the design company's boss. To get their entire family out of poverty, they had to bleed money again.

After two attempts, Su Maiqi has now been transformed into "Little Miss Y," which is such high praise. Shen Qingge has always wanted to become Miss Y's apprentice, but after making inquiries, she hasn't been able to contact Miss Y at all.

My private messages on Weibo are always read but never replied to.

Now Su Maiqi has climbed up to MISS Y under the title of "President's Wife," but what makes her so special?

Shen Qingge was sulking at home when the phone rang. She saw it was Haize, hesitated for a moment, and then answered it with a forced smile.

The man's voice on the other end was deep yet gentle: "Qingge, I heard from your uncle that you've been in a bad mood lately. Let me pick you up tonight to help you relax and have dinner together."

Shen Qingge did not like Hai Ze.

Haize wasn't ugly at all; in fact, he was quite handsome. He was 1.85 meters tall, with meticulously styled short black hair, and always kept himself impeccably clean.

His eyes were deep and bright, like obsidian that could see into people's hearts, and he often wore a cynical smile, as if the whole world was under his control.

He loved wearing all sorts of custom-made suits. When he stood there, his whole body and face exuded a sense of superiority. Shen Qingge didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that his gaze towards people was filled with contempt and a hint of provocation, as if he was silently declaring: no matter when or where, he was always the focus of everyone's attention.

When he saw Shen Qingge, his eyes certainly held admiration and joy, but Shen Qingge could still sense a hidden contempt. That admiration seemed more like an act, meant to annoy her.

Shen Qingge likes Gu Tingyu. She thinks that Tingyu is a very warm person at heart. Although he is also proud, he doesn't really look down on anyone.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingge felt a pang in his heart. He seemed to care quite a bit about Su Maiqi, as if it really didn't matter that she came from a poor background.

Because of Gu Tingyu, Shen Qingge would never be attracted to other men.

Even if she might fall in love with another man, Haize wasn't her type. She couldn't explain why, but being with Haize made her feel constantly tense, unable to relax at all.

Moreover, over the years, although Haize has been pursuing her and showing her affection in various ways, he has never stopped having other women around him.

But now Haize is her lifeline.

She agreed to get engaged to Haize in order to escape her current predicament.

She will no longer be Shen Qingge, who, in other people's eyes, lost the competition with Su Maiqi.

The Hai family's status in Haicheng is no less than that of the Gu family in Yuncheng.

In terms of wealth, the Hai family is even more superior.

Haize is the eldest grandson of the Hai family, while Gu Tingyu has an older brother, Gu Tingxuan, in the Gu family. Their biological father died young, and their uncle, Gu Tianze, holds the real power in the Gu family.

Haize possesses absolute strength in front of Gu Tingyu.

If you don't like me, I'm going to find a man who's better than you; it's not that I'm bad, it's that you have no taste.

A fierce glint flashed in Shen Qingge's eyes. "I'm going to marry Hai Ze. With the Shen family and the Hai family united by marriage, both my husband's family and my own will be powerful. I want Gu Tingyu to one day look up to me and regret his choice today."

She suddenly felt that she had a new goal and hope in her life.

She gently accepted Haize's invitation. With the marriage arranged, she needed to act like a girlfriend to secure Haize's position.

Besides, she's been cooped up at home lately and doesn't dare go out for fear of angering her father.

My father definitely won't object to me going out to meet Haize; on the contrary, he'll be happy and relieve some of the pressure. After all, the Hai family's strength is undeniable.

Afterwards, Shen Zejun heard that his daughter wanted to go on a date with Haize, and readily agreed, even telling his daughter to dress up nicely.

Haize's Cadillac quickly pulled up in front of Shen's house.

Despite the cold weather, Young Master Hai was still dressed in a standard custom-made suit, and of course, the car's heater was on full blast.

Shen Qingge wore a gentle beige knitted dress with a red, ankle-length down jacket over it.

Walking from afar, she exudes both purity and vitality.

Sitting in the car, Haize watched her walk towards him, a smirk playing on his lips: "This time, you can't escape."

He was wearing a thin suit. He got out of the car, opened the passenger door, and even used his hand to shield Shen Qingge as she sat in the passenger seat.

Shen Qingge felt very pleased. The brilliance and thoughtfulness of the young master Hai healed the frustration and depression that Gu Tingyu and Su Maiqi had brought her.

She kept saying "thank you," a gentle smile playing on her lips.

Haize, on the other hand, adopted a very gentlemanly demeanor: "With pleasure."

When Haize returned to the driver's seat, Shen Qingge had already taken off her down jacket; the temperature inside the car was simply too high.

Haize considerately bent down to help her fasten her seatbelt, but Shen Qingge suddenly felt her body tense up.

Aside from her brother Tingyu, she had never imagined being so close to any other man.
