1 Year of Beginning
“Give me one year of your life and I’ll give you the money you need.” Feng Mian is a normal and down to earth modern woman. She just wanted an ordinary life, an ordinary job and find an ordinary man to marry in the future. (Yes, all should be ordinary). But when family matters took a turn for the worst, she faced a huge dilemma called shortage of money. Suddenly, a contract came due to a series of coincidences. Zhang Liang was fed up with his father's (yes, father not mother) matchmaking schemes for him. He wanted to have a peaceful year because this was his chance to expand his business overseas, yet his father didn’t seem to get the message. When an ordinary fresh graduate employee in his company accidentally saw a scene, he decided to take the chance. “Since she has a normal background with nothing remarkable, nothing should go wrong, right?” Browsing through the contract, Feng Mian gritted her teeth. 'Fine. It was just one year of my life anyway. I wouldn't lose a lot.' But was it true? Or would that one year turn out to be a ride full of ups and down for both of them? ... Story set in modern era in fictional country. This story is purely fiction, any similarities with real life's event is purely coincidence.

Asking for Her Hand
Zhang Corporation referred to the companies that Zhang Liang had. There were a lot of branches that Zhang Liang had because he didn't only manage the sweet company. That term was used when it was referring to the many companies that he owned.
Zhang Liang looked at Lin San. He sighed. "Madam, you realized?"
Lin San nodded. "When you aired the advertisement, I can recognize my daughter anywhere. That's when I found out that Zhang Liang is the name of the president who owned Zhang Corporation."
It would be a lie if she said that she was not surprised. When she saw that name, she could not understand how her daughter could be involved with him. But then again, the Sweet Company where she worked belonged to Zhang Liang. Even if the chance was slim, they could meet there.
She was sure that Feng Mian didn't lie when she told him that they were working in the same company. It was just, one was the owner while the other was nothing more than an ordinary employee.
