Lian Yun is a celebrated young lady in Yangzhou, beautiful and radiant.
But her home is a rotten den of wolves, and she has no choice but to head to the capital and carve out a way to survive.
Just as her journey is nearly over, however
Lian Yun can't help drawing her dagger and stabbing someone in the eye in full view of everyone.
Yet she remains perfectly calm, wipes away the blood, enjoys a good meal and a sound sleep, then continues on her way...
A few days later.
A future powerbroker, quietly making his way along the path to success, sees the fierce young woman he once met briefly.
Now she is as sweet and delicate as a little rabbit.
What's more, she smiles sweetly at him and says, “Blessings to you, dear cousin.”
“If I want it, I swear I'll take it by force.”
From childhood on, Ji Chen has always taken what he wanted by force.
He thinks this time will be no different.
