Nan Buwan was a wage worker with “bad luck” written into her DNA.
Her life was a string of disasters: kicked out of her home, no education, cheated on, swindled out of every penny by a friend, and never married.
Finally! At thirty-seven, she bought a house. Just when she thought she was about to enjoy a good life, disaster struck again and she died.
When she woke up, she had been reborn in the body of a girl named Nan Wan. She also picked up a pitiful young man and, as a bonus, his little brother. After spending half her life alone, she was now embarking on a life raising kids.
All she had planned was to keep the two boys fed. She worked hard to make money, but then she got into a fight with a neighboring country's crown prince, and he enjoyed getting beaten up. She became best friends with a lovely young woman, who turned out to be a domineering empress and waved her hand, ordering Nan Wan to become her chancellor. And best of all, the pitiful young man she'd picked up had an extraordinary identity too. With tears in his eyes, he begged her to stay by his side.
Nan Buwan trembled. “Don't come any closer! I just want to live the way I want! Why won't you leave me alone?”
Later, this fiery, violent, foul-mouthed woman did things her own way, stubbornly refusing to be swayed. Shamelessly stealing other people's jobs and picking fights with anyone she couldn't stand, she ultimately became the unattainable first love of three emperors.
The person in question rolled her eyes. “Go cool your heels somewhere else. What's this nonsense about being someone's first love? The one you can't have is the one who becomes your first love.”
