[Female-dominant world + strong heroine + girlboss romance + two villains + raising him + devoted and faithful]

Chi Yuhua (Nan Yu) × Chu Cheng (Yu Nu)

(I)

Chu Cheng was the poisonous snake Chi Yuhua raised.

The two of them were partners in crime, doing every kind of evil.

Their names would go down in infamy together.

(II)

The Marquis of Dingjiang’s household was accused of hoarding military power and colluding with the enemy. The entire family was executed. Ten-year-old young lord Nan Yu and his grandfather set themselves on fire in the ancestral hall.

Chu Cheng lost his father at birth and was thrown into the Cold Palace to await death.

When the two first met, Nan Yu, consumed by hatred, nearly strangled Chu Cheng to death.

Seventeen years later, Nan Yu, now living under the name Chi Yuhua, set the Cold Palace ablaze. With the blood of the entire Chu clan, she dyed Chu Cheng a bright red wedding robe.
