To pay off the debts of her gambling-addicted, drunken father, Meng Lingdang was forced to marry the young prince.
Years into their marriage, everyone knew the princess consort was jealous, since the prince had only one legitimate wife, but no one knew who she was.
At first, Lingdang thought the prince was protecting her, his common-born wife. But when his childhood sweetheart suddenly appeared, Lingdang knew it was time to leave.
As Lingdang left, the truth about her background gradually came to light.
The prince and his childhood sweetheart had feelings for each other, right? His mother liked her too. She came from a wealthy and powerful family, and the prince would surely be happy to acknowledge her publicly. The people would probably adore her, too!
Free from the prince, Lingdang built her own career with one hand and enjoyed her wonderful life with the other. Meanwhile, the prince wanted to win her back. “Little Lingdang, come home!”
Lingdang replied, “Home? I've been home all along.”
