[A cool-headed, sharp-tongued, clever, and theatrical young lady vs. a devoted, scheming, lovesick puppy of a stable boy]
She died tragically in her previous life, betrayed by the person at her side!
Reborn, she’s determined to trample the scumbags and put the shameless women in their place, leading her family to glory.
At home, she turns her enemies’ schemes against them and keeps her malicious uncle and sister-in-law’s family in check.
Beyond the household, she gets the shops in order and builds a fortune. Her achievements in disaster relief earn her the emperor’s favor.
In public, he’s the lowest-ranking stable boy, always at her side and clearing the way for her.
In secret, he’s the head of a merchants’ guild and a future general who will guard the nation. For ten years, he’s been plotting a great upheaval that will reshape the world.
At last, he stands at the peak and reaches out to her. “My lady, I’m possessive and cold. My love is heavy and stained beyond redemption. Knowing that, would you still take my hand?”
