Su Meiyan
She's the sole daughter of the Su family's main line in Jiangning—basically groomed from childhood to run the whole operation. Her grandfather, the family patriarch, pegged her as the third-generation heir because she had genuine business instincts, not just a name. That kind of responsibility fell on her early.
The marriage to Ning Yi wasn't a love story at first. It was a deal, a contractual arrangement made because of family agreements. She spent considerable energy trying to get out of it, which makes sense—being locked into a marriage for business reasons isn't exactly romantic. But somewhere along the way, she actually noticed what Ning Yi was capable of. His talent became impossible to ignore, and what started as two people using each other for advantage gradually transformed into something real. By the end, they weren't just partners on paper; they were devoted to each other.
Fans often note the shift in their relationship as one of the story's strongest elements—watching them move from cold calculation to genuine affection feels earned rather than forced.
