After Tearing Up Her Marriage Contract, the Embroiderer Became Famous Across the Land

Synopsis

[While she was abandoned in a ruined temple to await death, her husband was spending his wedding night with his new love]

Su Wan gave her husband, Shen Zhiyuan, a marriage contract and a pair of gold bracelets to help him pass the imperial examinations and earn his title.

Yet on the very day he passed the jinshi exam, he branded her incurably ill, tossed her into a dilapidated sedan, and abandoned her in a deserted temple outside the city to fend for herself.

He had climbed into the favor of a high official's daughter, and she, the stepping stone he'd used to rise, had become the most glaring blemish on his path to success.

Three years of torment, her bones tempered in a cold hut.

With nothing but the skill of her ten fingers at embroidery, she rose from the ashes and founded the Sujin Embroidery House, making a name for herself across the region.

The man who had once cast her aside like trash suddenly returned. Kneeling before her piles of brocade, he wept and begged:

“Wan, I was wrong. Let's start over...”

Su Wan looked at his ragged, wretched clothes, the corner of her lips curling into a cold smile.

The fire that had once burned her heart to ashes had long since reduced their old love to nothing.

This time, she wouldn't just make him leave. She would take back everything he owed her, with interest, with her own hands!
