For three years, Lin Nian has been the least troublesome housekeeper in a wealthy family. She memorizes her employer’s dietary restrictions, presses every shirt until it’s wrinkle-free, becomes the one person the autistic young master depends on, and keeps the enormous villa in flawless order.
When her employer offers her triple pay and double the year-end bonus to stay, everyone assumes she’ll accept. Instead, Lin Nian resolutely hands in her resignation, leaving no room for negotiation.
After Lin Nian leaves, the Shen household descends into chaos. The young master cries and screams, refuses to eat, and smashes things. His domineering employer, who has always been in control, is at a loss, and replacing eight housekeepers makes no difference. Only then does Shen Shiyan realize that this seemingly ordinary housekeeper has already permeated every corner of the home and become indispensable.
An investigation brings a shocking secret to light: Lin Nian is the daughter of a once-wealthy family that went bankrupt. She concealed her identity to repay her father’s debts and gather evidence of wrongdoing. And his ex-wife was the one who ruined her family!
One remark, “She’s just a housekeeper,” shatters three years of warmth. A carefully planned infiltration concealed a blood feud. Is Lin Nian’s departure a complete severing of ties, or a counterattack from the brink of defeat? Can the domineering employer’s remorse bring her back? How will a daughter burdened by her family’s blood debt carefully maneuver under her enemy’s nose and get justice? This tangled tale of love and hate, scheming, and redemption has only just begun…
