"It comes out of the mud but not stained, and when it touches the clear ripples it is not evil." This poem comes from Zhou Dunyi's "Shuo Ai Lian" written by Zhou Dunyi in the Song Dynasty.
Tianxiang Pavilion is a famous comprehensive entertainment venue in East Guangdong City that integrates catering, karaoke, chess and card games, and accommodation. In 2009, three young girls from different provinces and cities, Jia Li, Bai Xue, and Dong Jie, came to Tianxiang Pavilion and became the bartender princesses in the singing hall. During the days when they worked in Tianxiang Pavilion, fate intertwined three beauties with different educational backgrounds, family backgrounds, values and life experiences, and different stories happened. Due to different concepts, the three beauties each have their favorite objects. Jia Li pursues money and falls in love with real estate boss Wu Wenqing; Bai Xue is a college student and falls in love with university professor Wang Shizong; Dong Jie falls in love with Liu Shuang, a young Internet company programmer. Later, when Guangdong City launched an anti-pornography and anti-illegal campaign, Tianxiang Pavilion was closed down, and the three beauties had to find another way to make a living. Jia Li married Wu Wenqing and lived a life of a rich wife with no worries about food and clothing; Bai Xue helped Wang Shizong's legal consulting company; Dong Jie went to work in a company of classmate Liu Shuang and got married soon. As the anti-corruption work in Guangdong City deepened, Wu Wenqing's real estate company collapsed due to insolvency. Wu Wenqing was also sentenced for bribery. Jia Li also fell ill due to cheating after marriage. Jia Li, who was desperate for life, wrote a confession and committed suicide by taking medicine. Bai Xue married Wang Shizong and became the general manager of a legal consulting company.
Due to their different values, the three beauties had differences in their conduct and work, which ultimately led to their different fates.
A very realistic novel
