[Putting on a show anytime, anywhere] [A beauty-loving, spoiled little darling] [Multiple men] [Rivalry for her affection]
Su Muran is divorced, and her ex-husband turns around and marries someone else.
Su Muran grits her teeth and swears revenge.
She sets her sights on Shen Yu.
As the head of the Qiao Yuan Trading House, he could easily ruin her ex-husband's family's business.
Su Muran works hard to train him into her own dog.
Just as she's about to put her revenge into action, her ex-husband rises in status.
The woman he just married turns out to be the county magistrate's long-lost biological daughter.
Su Muran laughs in fury.
The next day, someone dumps a bucket of cold water on her along the prefect's usual route.
"Ah, that's cold."
She bites her lip and, at just the right angle for the prefect to see, lets one shoulder slip into view in a way that's so very casual.
Later, the prefect kneels at her feet, eyes clouded with desire.
"Ranan, I'll do anything for you."
Su Muran curls her lips. Excellent, here's her chance.
And then the chance slips away again.
Her ex-husband rises in status again.
An imperial envoy traveling south of the Yangtze takes a liking to him, and he enters officialdom.
Su Muran is numb with frustration. She's even snapped two fingernails, but that doesn't stop her from handing out porridge on the street the next day.
The envoy is cold and hard-hearted, yet still nods at Su Muran.
"Miss, you are truly compassionate."
Su Muran says, "The people suffer. I only want to do what little I can."
Later, the iron-hearted man turns gentle as silk.
"Ran'er, when will you take me to meet your father?"
Su Muran says it'll be soon, then vanishes the very next day.
Because that dog of a man has risen in status again.
Su Muran says nothing. She simply keeps making herself noticeable to the heir of the Boyuan Marquis.
Shunzi bends down to report, "Your Majesty, this young lady has staged her third heroic rescue of an old man."
Jiang Linzhou's phoenix eyes curve in a smile. "Not bad acting."
Su Muran is devastated.
She was clearly trying to seduce the heir, so how did she end up imprisoned in the palace by the emperor?
Can she still get her revenge or not?
