After being dumped by the top scholar, Su Yuniang, the troupe owner, makes a name for herself in the capital.
Her biological father, now an official, weeps as he claims her? Su Yuniang says, "You cast me aside twenty years ago. Twenty years later, I'm not worthy of your family."
From a ramshackle troupe from out of town to performers honored by the imperial court, Su Yuniang sings her way into the capital's top-tier star circle.
But... why is that spoiled young master who always takes her side acting stranger and stranger?
He corners her backstage, all traces of amusement gone from his eyes. "Yuniang, your performances have captivated the whole capital."
"The next show should be A Phoenix Seeks Its Mate."
"Who else could play the male lead but me?"
