[Step-by-step scheming + household intrigue + satisfying revenge]
Huaiyu was born with delicate, flawless skin and breathtaking beauty, making countless men desire her.
But her master offered her as a plaything to the brutal, lecherous Second Young Master. She refused to accept that this was her fate.
If she truly had to depend on a man in this life, she would choose Pei Yuanzhi.
She tried every trick she had ever learned. The man she wanted to seduce had a cold, imposing presence. He gripped her throat hard, his voice so icy it made her tremble.
“Trying to seduce me? Disgusting!”
Huaiyu’s heart died completely. She waited for her master to summon her and settle accounts.
Pei Yuanzhi was as elegant as an orchid and a jade tree, but had no interest in women. He had assumed Huaiyu was just like all those women who set their sights on climbing the social ladder, and rejected her harshly.
But after that day, it was as though he had been bewitched. In the dead of night, all he could dream of was the peach-blossom birthmark on her chest.
So he took her in and pampered her, while warning her not to get any ideas.
What he never expected was that she had been planning how to leave all along.
Only after she vanished did he realize how love could tear a person’s heart to shreds!
