Synopsis

After being misunderstood and hidden, Tang Su, a popular girl group idol, accidentally becomes the personal nanny of Huangfu Jue, the president of an entertainment group, after gaining more weight over 25 kilos.

The face-blind Huangfu Jue is unexpectedly the number one anti-fan of Tang Su! Then they embark on a "thrilling" love story.

Recap

Tang Su, 23 years old, desperately wants to know when her bad luck streak will end. Just a few months ago, Tang Su was the leader of the popular idol group SSR, hoping to become a top-tier celebrity. However, she became embroiled in a scandal and was forced to go into hiding by her company. Her former SSR teammate, Yu Mengmeng, not only took over all of Tang Su's work but also stole her potential boyfriend, popular celebrity Lu Yanzhi, becoming the biggest beneficiary of the scandal.

Even after leaving the group, Tang Su found herself being treated poorly because of her weight, even in small things like buying cookies at a convenience store. To make ends meet, she had to deliver food on an electric bike, but her bad luck continued to follow her. Tang Su delivered food to a luxury mansion and, unable to resist her hunger, began eating the food. However, halfway through, a half-naked, stunningly beautiful man wearing only a towel appeared before her and demanded that she take off her clothes for inspection.

Tang Su was shocked and embarrassed, not knowing what to do. Little did she know, the strange man in the mansion was actually the CEO of TIME Entertainment, Huangfu Jue. As a talented and successful businessman, Huangfu Jue had many female fans, but unfortunately, his thinking was as unusual as that of a Siberian husky.

Tang Su was still recovering from the shock of encountering malicious fans when Huangfu Jue unilaterally decided to hire her as a nanny. Become a personal nanny for malicious fans? Countless terrible scenes flashed through Tang Su's mind, and she was frightened. She stuttered and asked Huangfu Jue why he chose her. Huangfu Jue gave an inexplicable reason: "Because you're fat." Tang Su's mind flew off and imagined Huangfu Jue as the man-eating Hannibal, and her excess fat was just right for his taste. Tang Su refused to comply, but in the process of evading, she accidentally broke an exquisite antique vase. When Tang Su heard from Huangfu Jue that the compensation price was two million, her previous indignation dissipated and she instantly changed her attitude, using the name Su Tang to greet her new boss with a smile and began her days as a nanny for malicious fans. She thought her nanny career would be extremely miserable, but luckily Tang Su's skills were fully developed, and she handled it with ease. What really made her cry was a news item on TV: Yu Mengmeng and Lu Yanzhi announced their romantic relationship, and Lu Yanzhi even sent Tang Su, who had been out of contact for a long time, a "friendship card."

Tang Su was moved by Huangfu Jue's "boyfriend charm" and her heart was filled with little pink bubbles. Her boss was really handsome. But the happiness only lasted for three seconds. Tang Su's weight not only burst the bubbles but also injured Huangfu Jue's waist. The scene suddenly changed and Tang Su became Huangfu Jue's legs. However, Huangfu Jue was a difficult patient with endless demands, who wanted to hang onto Tang Su all the time. Tang Su had mixed feelings. On the one hand, she felt guilty because Huangfu Jue had injured himself to help her out. On the other hand, she felt suspicious because Huangfu Jue's waist injury seemed exaggerated like he was paralyzed. Just when Tang Su was doubting, the doctor confirmed that Huangfu Jue's waist injury was real. From then on, Tang Su willingly took care of Huangfu Jue. As a caregiver, Tang Su did an excellent job. She not only carefully prepared meals for Huangfu Jue but also placed various props to relieve boredom by his bedside. Her meticulous care surprised and delighted Huangfu Jue. Especially when she followed the caregiver's rules, and slept beside Huangfu Jue without undressing after a long day's work, Huangfu Jue was very satisfied with her performance.

Former friends have become someone else's caretaker. When Tong Yiwu learned the truth, she wanted to help Tang Su out, but was rejected. Tang Su gave five reasons why she couldn't accept the offer, but Tong Yiwu, who was in love, believed that Tang Su had fallen for Huangfu Jue. Although Huangfu Jue was Tong Yiwu's blind date, she showed no interest in him and instead fell for his assistant, Chi Ye.

During the blind date, Tong Yiwu tried her best to impress Chi Ye, nearly revealing Tang Su's identity several times. Tang Su was nervous and constantly reminded her not to get too excited. Huangfu Jue, on the other hand, was not interested in the date and only wanted to escape to the artificial sun island. Only Chi Ye took the blind date seriously.

Huangfu Jue used the excuse of being absent from work for a few days to end the date, and asked Tang Su to take Tong Yiwu around the company while he himself escaped like an ant fleeing a hot pot. The situation was awkward! At the same time, Tang Su finally realized that her boss was face-blind. To her, Huangfu Jue's face-blindness was a gift from heaven, and his family was like a safe haven.

When Tong Yiwu went to the bathroom, Tang Su accidentally entered the recording studio and saw the person she had been thinking about day and night, but was too shy to meet - Lu Yanzhi. Lu Yanzhi still looked elegant and had a melancholy demeanor, even under the studio's spotlight, he still shone like a brilliant star.

 

Before, Huangfu Jue rudely took Tang Su away in front of Lu Yan Zhi. But this did not make Lu Yan Zhi give up. He believed that there must be answers he wanted to know from this chubby nanny. He directly requested to meet with the Huang Fu family nanny, but Huangfu Jue refused and assigned Tang Su to accompany him for work, leaving her no time or opportunity to respond to Lu Yan Zhi's request.

Although "accompanying the boss to record a food show" was beyond the scope of the nanny's job, Tang Su was still quite touched by the fact that Huangfu Jue went to such great lengths to protect himself from Lu Yan Zhi's harassment. However, when they arrived at the recording studio, Tang Su realized that she was too naive. The guest on today's show was Tang Su's nemesis, Huangfu Jue's sweetheart, Yu Mengmeng. Tang Su was furious, realizing that Huangfu Jue had just brought her along to pursue a celebrity.

Being used was one thing, but if Yu Mengmeng recognized her, that would be a big problem. After weighing her options, Tang Su decided to try to conceal herself and get through the day. After all, she was just a small character hiding behind the CEO's back, and the flourishing Yu Mengmeng should not notice her.

But fate had other plans for Tang Su, and she spent the day like a rollercoaster ride. She was caught off guard in the bathroom and ran into Yu Mengmeng head-on. After barely getting through that encounter...

 

Yu Mengmeng had an unexpected allergic reaction in the variety show and had to be taken to the hospital. Tang Su once again lamented her bad luck and rubbed her injured arm alone at home. Meanwhile, Huangfu Jue hurriedly took Yu Mengmeng to the hospital and took good care of her, but was criticized by their manager. Yu Mengmeng pretended to be a victim and hinted that Tang Su was responsible for everything. Huangfu Jue became frustrated and wanted to find out the truth.

When Huangfu Jue returned home, he asked Tang Su if she had anything to do with the incident. However, this made Tang Su feel upset and hurt, thinking that Huangfu Jue didn't trust her. She turned to leave, but Huangfu Jue couldn't help but grab her arm and found out that it was injured. Huangfu Jue worriedly applied ointment to her arm, and the two finally opened up to each other. Huangfu Jue instructed Tang Su to stay at home and not go out.

Tang Su agreed to stay low at home, but received a letter from Lu Yanzhi, who wanted to help clear her name. After struggling with the decision, Tang Su decided to meet Lu Yanzhi, but she didn't expect that it was all a trap set up by Yu Mengmeng. Yu Mengmeng gloated as she explained her plan to frame Tang Su and claimed that Huangfu Jue would eventually fall for her. However, Yu Mengmeng suddenly screamed and covered her face with a burning pain.

 

Tang Su fell asleep and Huangfu Jue helped her into the house and laid her on the couch. Accidentally, he kissed her face and was stunned. Huangfu Jue watched Tang Su sleep by the couch after gazing at her for a while and kissing her again.

The next day, Huangfu Jue woke up and wanted to ask Tang Su to bring him a glass of water, but there was no response. He searched the house for a long time but couldn't find her. He found a note in the living room that Tang Su left, apologizing for leaving without saying goodbye and promising to see him again in three months.

Huangfu Jue showed the note to Chi Ye, who asked what had happened yesterday. Huangfu Jue told her that he had kissed Tang Su once, and that was all. Chi Ye thought that Tang Su left because Huangfu Jue didn't do anything else. She reminded Huangfu Jue of the incident with Yu Mengmeng that had caused a drop in the company's stock price and warned that the shareholders would become dissatisfied if such things continued.

Huangfu Jue thought of exposing Yu Mengmeng's scheme, but decided against it as it would only create more trouble with the shareholders. He asked Chi Ye to find Tang Su and promised not to make her do anything she didn't want to do if she returned.

Huangfu Jue collected all of Yu Mengmeng's posters, feeling that he had made Tang Su do things she didn't want to do, which led to her leaving. He promised not to make her do such things again if she came back. When he heard a noise, he thought it was Tang Su and hugged the person, but it turned out to be someone else.

Chi Ye thought that Huangfu Jue wouldn't recognize the mistake, so she hired a new maid for him and planned to switch back if Tang Su returned. Huangfu Jue didn't want another maid and expressed his disappointment with the song that Lu Yanzhi had written for the company's fifth anniversary. He told him to rewrite it and didn't let him see Tang Su without permission.

Lu Yanzhi was angry and left. Chi Ye stopped him and reminded him that Huangfu Jue had given him many opportunities to succeed. Huangfu Jue arranged a party and received a call from Chi Ye, who had found a famous weight loss center. Huangfu Jue rushed there and found Tang Su. She wanted to lose weight before facing Huangfu Jue again and showing him her best self. Huangfu Jue promised to wait for her.

Journalists found out that the assistant who helped Yu Mengmeng during her allergy attack last time was a nanny from Huangfu Jue's family, and they are speculating if there's a connection between them. When Huangfu Jue arrived, the journalists asked him if he had any involvement in the incident and also mentioned that Yu Mengmeng was rumored to have depression. Tong Xiaowu came over and said that this wasn't the first time Yu Mengmeng had been rumored to have depression and that she was tired of playing the same role over and over again.

At the company party, Tang Su also came but no one recognized her because everyone was wearing masks. Lu Yanzhi approached her and asked if she was an employee of Time Entertainment and if she would like to tell him her name. Huangfu Jue also arrived and thought that Lu Yanzhi's approach was too cliché.

Tang Su quickly left and met Tong Xiaowu, feeling scared because Lu Yanzhi and Huangfu Jue were over there. Tong Xiaowu said she was trying to help Tang Su with her love troubles and that it was only a matter of time before they recognized her.

Tang Su went outside to take a breath of fresh air, and Huangfu Jue came over and said that his nanny had run away, even though they agreed she would come back after three months. Huangfu Jue wanted to hire Tang Su as his nanny and said she could smash any of his vases if she wanted, and asked why she didn't want to go home.

Huangfu Jue pulled Tang Su aside and said he had learned the dance she taught him last time. Tang Su asked how he recognized her since he had prosopagnosia, and Huangfu Jue was surprised too, realizing that Tang Su was important to him. Huangfu Jue wanted to see Tang Su's face, and just as she was frightened, Tong Xiaowu came over and pulled her away.

As Tang Su was about to leave, Yu Mengmeng suddenly appeared and asked if she was planning to return to the entertainment industry now that she had lost weight, and said that Tang Su had found herself a wealthy backer in Huangfu Jue. Tang Su said she only had Huangfu Jue as her support and wanted to prove Yu Mengmeng wrong. Huangfu Jue overheard and quickly left. Tang Su said that if Yu Mengmeng hurt Huangfu Jue, she wouldn't let her get away with it.

Yu Mengmeng said she came to seek justice and publicly revealed that the employee who disappeared for three months was Tang Su. Tang Su appeared and provided evidence that she orchestrated her own disappearance. Huangfu Jue showed the video and the chocolate with peanuts, and Yu Mengmeng shifted the blame to the assistant and even unmasked Tang Su in front of everyone.

Huangfu Jue pulled Tang Su away, and she said she wanted to tell him the truth at a more appropriate time. Huangfu Jue asked if she enjoyed playing games with him, sacrificing herself to become his nanny, just to use him to return to the entertainment industry.

Huangfu Jue kissed Tang Su and said he wanted to make an equal exchange. Tang Su was so angry that she pushed Huangfu Jue away and ran off. When Huangfu Jue returned in a daze, Tong Xiaowu thought it was because Huangfu Jue said he hated Tang Su, and so Tang Su did not dare to reveal her true identity to Huangfu Jue. Tong Xiaowu believed that names cannot represent everything and that it was raining outside, so she urged Huangfu Jue to quickly find Tang Su.

While it was raining, Lu Yanzhi came over and said he should apologize to Tang Su for what happened before, and gave his clothes to Tang Su. Huangfu Jue happened to see this and rushed over to attack Lu Yanzhi, but Tang Su stopped him. Huangfu Jue wanted to take Tang Su back, but Tang Su directly pulled away from him. Tong Xiaowu also arrived and took Tang Su away.

Tang Su felt that she kept making mistakes no matter what she did and that people always misunderstood her. Tong Xiaowu felt that Huangfu Jue cared about Tang Su, or else he would not have fought for her. Chi Ye gave Huangfu Jue some medicine. Huangfu Jue said he should stop working with Lu Yanzhi. Chi Ye Said he was too sensitive towards Lu Yanzhi.

Yu Mengmeng made a phone call and said she had sent the photos to the person, and if they wanted exclusive information, she would send it to them tomorrow. Lu Yanzhi went to see Yu Mengmeng and found that she had taken a lot of medicine and could not be woken up. He quickly took her to the hospital.

The next day, Tong Xiaowu woke up and found that Tang Su was gone. Huangfu Jue happened to call, so she told him. Tang Su went out to buy things and met a suspicious person downstairs. Someone shouted that this person had stolen their things. Tang Su chased after the person, but the person sprayed Tang Su's eyes with a spray.

Huangfu Jue arrived just in time and subdued the thief, then sent Tang Su to the hospital. Tang Su realized it was Huangfu Jue and he reassured her that she had nothing to fear as long as he was around.

Tong Xiaowu and Chi Ye also arrived, and Tong Xiaowu said that Tang Su didn't dare to speak up because Huangfu Jue didn't like her. She also said that if anything happened to Tang Su, she wouldn't let Huangfu Jue off the hook. The doctor said that Tang Su's eyes had been cleaned, but it was still unknown whether there would be any lasting damage to her vision and would require further observation.

Yu Mengmeng woke up and told Lu Yanzhi that she didn't do those things, it was her assistant who took the fall for her. Lu Yanzhi ran into Huangfu Jue and asked him if he liked Tang Su, to which Huangfu Jue admitted. Lu Yanzhi then asked if Tang Su liked him back.

Huangfu Jue pretended to be a volunteer to take care of Tang Su, claiming that his name was Huang Yousu and even spoke in a silly voice while pinching his nose. Tang Su thought that Huang Yousu was a play on words for Huangfu Jue and that his voice was too ridiculous. Tang Su kept giving orders to Huangfu Jue, and he obediently followed each one.

Tang Su talked to Huangfu Jue about her situation, explaining that she had been misunderstood by others and that no one believed her. She had even been forced to work as a maid for someone who hated her, but that person had given her a place to stay. Tang Su explained that she had not meant to deceive anyone and asked Huangfu Jue if he would forgive her if he were in that person's shoes. Huangfu Jue gently patted Tang Su's hair.

Tang Su tossed and turned in bed, and Lu Yanzhi came to visit her. Lu Yanzhi left briefly, and Tang Su followed him secretly. The nurse thought that Miss Tang was very fortunate to have so many people caring for her and said that Lu Yanzhi had been working hard there for many days. Tang Su thought that Lu Yanzhi had been taking care of her during all these days.

Tang Su's eye bandage was removed, and she was able to see again, but Huangfu Jue did not come to visit her, and she felt a bit disappointed. Huangfu Jue came to pick Tang Su up from the hospital with flowers, but then he heard Tang Su thanking Lu Yanzhi for taking care of her during all these days. Huangfu Jue sadly walked away, feeling that no matter what he did, Tang Su always thought of Lu Yanzhi first.

Mr. Luo told Yu Mengmeng that she needs to restore her reputation and it's safer to keep enemies close than to keep them far away. He asked her if she wants to keep Lu Yanzhi. Yu Mengmeng asked Mr. Luo what he needs her to do.

Tong Xiaowu went to the hospital to pick up Tang Su but found out that Lu Yanzhi had already taken her away. Tong Xiaowu rushed to Tang Su and told her that she could take care of herself and asked Lu Yanzhi to leave quickly. Tong Xiaowu also told Tang Su that Huangfu Jue went to the hospital today and thought his face was injured by Lu Yanzhi. Tang Su thought it was impossible because if Huangfu Jue had met Lu Yanzhi, they might have fought again, and besides, he hadn't been around for many days.

Yu Mengmeng said she wanted to hold a press conference to apologize to Tang Su, and Tang Su planned to go see what Yu Mengmeng wanted first. Yu Mengmeng said that Tang Su didn't steal her boyfriend and that she had a good relationship with Lu Yanzhi. Tang Su was about to leave but was stopped by Yu Mengmeng who removed her mask.

Yu Mengmeng and Tang Su went to the "First Stage" and Yu Mengmeng said that Tang Su was already ruined and she just wanted her to see the contrast. Tang Su said that if Yu Mengmeng was afraid of her comeback, she would take back what she had lost. Tang Su went to see Mr. Luo and said that she wanted to come back, but Mr. Luo said he wouldn't give her as many resources as before, and she would have to start from scratch.
