1vN along the way, ending uncertain. Rivalry among suitors, dramatic love triangles, and family feuds among the wealthy.
After her mother supposedly dies in an accident, He Wei is brought back to the He family ancestral home. Going from having nothing to having everything takes only a few men she can keep wrapped around her finger, waiting on her hand and foot.
She outsmarts her stepmother, puts her awful stepsister in her place, and cleverly wins over the family's “white moonlight.”
She thinks she has everything under her thumb, but forgets that high society runs on equal exchange.
No one gives without a reason. Someone who once loved you may hand you the most deeply wounding knife of all.
Like life itself, the story twists and turns again and again. When you think everything has settled down, in truth, it's only the calm before the storm...
He Wei draws on every resource she can, growing stronger as she uncovers the truth about her mother's death, until at last she stands at the pinnacle of the Forbidden City.
Every step she takes is made possible by someone's quiet help behind the scenes...
He won't pave the way for her, but when she is trapped in a desperate situation, he is always willing to reach out and help.
Because he once told her:
What the rose eventually becomes depends on what she wants to become...
