(One woman and multiple men + black-lotus female lead + stunning looks and figure + men competing for her in a battlefield of love)
Li Nian was born in a small town on the Yunnan border. Her mother’s gambling addiction turned their once-happy home into a mountain of debt.
After her father sold their home to pay off the debts, he became ill with rage and, unable to afford treatment, died with bitterness in his heart.
Her mother considered her a burden and promptly dumped her on her aunt before running off with a wealthy man.
Her father’s death, her mother’s abandonment, life under someone else’s roof, and bullying at school exposed her to every kind of cruelty the world had to offer.
She matured earlier than other people her age and saw the world more clearly than anyone. Only by having plenty of money could she survive; only by climbing high enough could she avoid being bullied.
Relying on her beauty and cunning, she advances one careful step at a time.
She works her way among a crowd of powerful men, blurring the line between truth and lies, reality and illusion.
Every man believes he is the only one she will ever love.
Only Li Nian knows the truth: in this world, she loves no one but herself.
