Seven years later, she assumes a new identity as Tianyong City’s most celebrated courtesan, hoping to make a name for herself across the city and win the favor of nobles and royalty.

Who could have guessed that on the very same day, Lian Chen Ye, the Prince of Chonglin, returns to the capital? Rumor has it he is an idle wastrel, but the next day he wins the right to be her very first honored guest through sheer ability. One is the courtesan dazzling the entire city; the other is a prince of great renown. Which of them is the fate she cannot escape?
