Bright, outspoken, and never one to back down, the little maid × a scheming, sharp-tongued young master with plenty of tricks up his sleeve
Transmigration + doting romance + escape from disaster + farming + comeback and revenge + a touch of ensemble cast
Both characters have their own growth arcs.
After transmigrating into the body of a maid, Ye Xingyao doesn’t complain. She vows to live well and with dignity.
She wants to live well and prosper. But she never expected that a little maid like her would get caught up in a powerful family’s internal power struggle, where one wrong move could cost her life.
So she rescues the young master from danger, then finds a way to make her own fortune. Once she gains her freedom, she’s determined to make something of herself, but there’s always a shadow trailing behind her.
That shadow corners her. “You heartless woman. Have you forgotten who gave you your freedom?” It’s the thing he regrets most.
At first, the young master of the Lin family coldly tells little Ye, “Mind your own business. Don’t concern yourself with me, and don’t get ideas you shouldn’t have.” Later, when he realizes little Ye truly doesn’t care about him as her young master, he starts to panic. His greatest regret is letting Ye Xingyao go. He thought they were only comrades who had faced hardship together, but he had already fallen for her sun-warmed smile and could no longer help himself. His feelings ran deep, and he never even realized it.
In short, this is a story about two imperfect people warming each other’s hearts.
