One sentence summary: The daughter of the Republic of China is not a canary, but a careerist.
When I was 18 years old, my aunt forced me to marry a 55-year-old tobacco and soil dealer to fill a house.
I backhandedly exposed the scandal of her using my betrothal gift to cover the shortfall of her parents' family.
"Either we break off the engagement, or the Wang family is finished together."
They all thought that concubines were easy to handle.
Little did they know that I was proficient in three foreign languages, secretly invested in a garment shop, and doubled my profits in three months.
Little did I know that the jade earrings my mother left behind contained the title deed to a prime location in the French Concession.
Until I met Zhou Zecheng at the Jockey Club——
The man who returned from Cambridge and holds the economic lifeblood of Shanghai.
Put on a plain cheongsam and pretend to be his Bai Yueguang.
He thought she was clinging to him, but he didn't know that she was using him as a knife.
Later, all of Shanghai saw:
• My "youth" domestic brand forced the Japanese to kneel down and beg for mercy.
• My Yunshang Pavilion has become an underground intelligence transfer station
• My sister-in-law who once bullied me knelt in the heavy rain and begged me to let the Shen family go.
And Zhou Zecheng kissed me in the hail of bullets:
"If I had known you were so wild, I should have taken you home and stamped you on your first meeting at the Jockey Club!"
