Xu Jingchun is forced into a stand-in marriage, becoming the “good-luck bride” everyone in high society is waiting to laugh at. Her husband is Shen Zhiye, an heir said to be on the verge of death.
On their wedding night, a strange group chat popped up in her mind:
[There’s something in the wine.]
[Your husband is faking it.]
[There are listening devices in the room.]
Xu Jingchun smiled. So she hadn’t married into a wealthy family. She’d walked into a high-stakes game of Werewolf.
While others put up with mistreatment in rich households, she gathered evidence while enjoying the drama.
When the family treated her like a pawn, she used the group chat to expose their secrets and send her enemies to court one by one.
When the Shen family used her to keep their succession plans on track, she turned around and flipped the whole table.
Only then did the wealthy families realize that their young madam wasn’t a pushover. She was a lawyer with a rock-steady kind of madness, bringing conspiracies, respectability, and secrets before the court all at once.
And her “dying” husband, Shen Zhiye, was frail and sickly on the surface, but secretly addicted to pulling the strings.
By day, they played a loving couple. By night, they tried to outwit each other.
From testing each other to joining forces and closing the net, they turned the entire world of high society upside down.
Everyone thought she had come to bring her husband good luck.
Only she knew the truth:
She had come to flip the table.
