Scheming young stepmother × young master returned from abroad (childhood sweethearts × top with zero defenses × female awakening × devoted loyalist)
Her father dies suddenly, and creditors come knocking. Forced into a sedan chair and married into the Nian family, she becomes the concubine brought in to bring good fortune to the ailing, wealthy Master Nian.
The white funeral banners are still hanging when, deep in the courtyard, she runs into the Nian family's only son, Nian Shengyi, who has been away for eight years...
“It's been years. You've certainly... made something of yourself.”
“So you've become my father's little stepmother?!”
