A Love Beyond the Rules of the Rich

Shen Weiyang, the illegitimate daughter of the wealthy Shen family who grew up outside the household, is brought back to the family mansion by her father after her mother's mysterious death. She appears meek and submissive, but in truth she is perceptive and meticulous. Facing a stepmother who seems kind but is cruel at heart, an arrogant half-sister, and a clan full of relatives with their own agendas, she sees the family estate as a battlefield without gunfire: a modern-day palace drama. She has no golden finger, relying only on her keen understanding of human nature and careful planning. By exploiting conflicts of interest within the family and turning their own schemes against them, she repays every humiliation in kind. Along the way, she and Gu Beici, the head of a powerful conglomerate and the family's greatest business rival, who has his own secret plans for the clan, probe and use each other. In the end, they forge an alliance of interest and affection, uncover the truth behind her mother's death, and rise to the pinnacle of the family's power.
