Synopsis

Wang Man Ling (Ady An) is a crass young lady who is the daughter of a wealthy pig farmer. When a failed attempt to get her longtime boyfriend Peter to propose marriage to her at a friend's wedding reception ends with him dumping her, she makes a promise to him and all their friends that she will find a guy wealthier and more handsome than him to marry her. Her first step towards finding such a guy is to have her best friend Gao Tou Wen, who works at a matchmaking service, introduce her to guys on blind dates, but none seem to fit her requirements and each date ends with her flipping the table.

Fan Jiang Yu (Mike He) is a second generation heir who lives off of his father's wealth. He lives extravagantly and does not have a care on how he spends his money. Due to his father's death, their company stocks drops overnight leaving him almost broke.

The two meet by accident when Man Ling thinks Jiang Yu is the absolute last blind date Tou Wen will set her up on, while Jiang Yu thinks Man Ling is an artiste that he has to piss off to cut ties with his parents charity. Wanting to prove to her dad and Tou Wen that this blind date won't end with her flipping the table, she holds her temper while taking insults from Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu, seeing how he isn't getting any reactions from Man Ling, decides to flip the table and end their meeting. Mad that Jiang Yu had insulted her, Man Ling decides to stalk him outside the men's room and give him a beat down.

Once their confusion is cleared that he isn't really her blind date and she isn't the artiste mooching from his charity, the two make a deal where he will teach her how to act and dress like the rich in exchange for her paying him.
