Sunk in Obsession — The Price of Pride transcript

Sunk in Obsession

Ye Xinwan: The female lead. Her family went bankrupt. She is trapped by huge debts and her grandmother’s critical medical bills. She was once engaged to a wealthy young man from the Li family, but the engagement collapses amid family betrayals. Shen Yumu: The male lead. He comes from the powerful, wealthy Shen family based in Bangkok. He used to live a life of strict self‑discipline (“observing vows”), until he meets Ye Xinwan in India. She becomes his “karmic temptation”, breaking all his self‑rules. After her family’s collapse, Ye Xinwan flees heart‑broken to India and meets Shen Yumu by chance. Shen Yumu offers a transaction: he will pay off all her crushing debts, on condition she becomes his lover for three months. What starts as a cold‑blooded deal slowly turns into deep obsession. Shen Yumu, cold and reserved, struggles between his family’s expectations and his uncontrollable longing for Ye Xinwan. Ye Xinwan struggles with dignity, trauma and whether she dares to trust this dangerous powerful man. The story moves between Singapore and Bangkok: she travels back with him to face his complicated family, deal with her former fiancé’s harassment, and navigate power games between rich clans. The whole drama focuses on obsession, forbidden attraction, emotional tug‑of‑war, and whether two wounded people can save each other.

Sunk in Obsession — The Price of Pride transcript

English

Since you're here, drop the act. Is it your work habit, or do you want Lijia's contract,

or your worthless dignity? Pick one. Grandma's medical bills need 50,000.

50,000? You think I'm a money printer? That's Grandma. The doctor says if we don't pay today,

they'll stop treatment. I told you she's frail, why keep treating? It costs tens of thousands daily.

She's your mother-in-law! She's my life. She's also the backbone of the company. Isn't Lijia paying?

Go ask Li Sihan for it. That's pocket change. It's your lack of skill that ruined the ten-billion project.

It fell through like that. Can't even handle this. Do you have a brain? Now look,

no word from the Shen family. Dad, that Shen Yumu is insane. He treats Xiwan like she's nothing.

So what if he's a nut? If he wants a daughter, give him one. Chairman, Shen's on the line. Who? Young Master Shen?

It's his assistant, Mr. A-san. Assistant A-san. Yesterday Quanzi was out of line.

Young Master Shen is wise. Our Li family— Name it. Ten daughters if you want. Hear that? Shen loosened up.

Just need Ye Xiwan to go. That's not a big deal. Is it a marriage mandate? They're not even married yet.

This is major; that's trivial. Wait till I sign the contract. You've seen it all. No.

Tonight? Hospital? Tired? Mom partnered with Shang. Basically need you to see Shen once more. Say what you want.

This matters to Lijiao. First, trust me. He wants me to flirt. To secure the deal soon.

No problem. Next. Second, I want revenge. Your dad mortgaged that land.

That's your issue. No, I won't go. Agreed to him. Okay.

Pray you sign the contract. Miss Ye. Mr. Shen is in the dining hall. The young master waits upstairs.

This is your sincerity? Mr. Shen. Came for the project talk. About profit share.

Strip. Take off your clothes. What? Or perhaps

You'd rather get wet in that? I can play some temptation games. What? I'm here to work.

Since you're here, Don't just stand there. Work habit? Want the contract,

Or your worthless pride? Pick one. Come here. You broke my bracelet.

I fixed it. Eighteen beads. All scattered. I picked them all night.

Nine years of routine. Ruined in one night. This debt, How will you pay?

What does Mr. Shen want? If I can provide it, Form is not void, Void is not form.

Shen Yumo, Three months, Be my lover, Then the Ye debt's cleared.

Deal. Okay.
