[Gentle yet resilient, with a heart as refined as orchids, Ye Jinyu × warm and refined as jade, upright and self-possessed, Song Jinshu]
A modern orphan, Ye Jinyu transmigrates to ancient times and becomes the legitimate eldest daughter of a noble family. Unfortunately, her birth mother died early, and her stepmother rules the household.
Before Ye Jinyu can enjoy the riches of her noble family, her sweet-tongued but wicked-hearted stepmother schemes to have her killed.
Ye Jinyu escapes with her life and is taken in by the male lead’s family.
To make a better life for herself in ancient times, she reaches an agreement with the male lead: they will pretend to be husband and wife.
But, young master, we agreed this was a fake marriage. Why are you taking it seriously?
