Enticing Passion: A Delicate Scheme

[Strong Female Lead + Palace and Household Intrigue + Multiple Men + Satisfying Revenge + Ruthless]

Chen Cao'er never imagined that one day her own blood relatives would sell her to pay off their gambling debts. Why should I have to clean up the mess you made?

In the eyes of those in power, she is an ant, a worthless slave, even a plaything they can give away at will.

If escape is impossible, she might as well risk everything. In the eyes of outsiders, she is a woman with nothing but beauty, yet time and again, she slips out of their control.

-

I am Chen Cao'er, and I am also Su Zhiyao. You can call me Gu Hanzhang, too.

Perhaps I will have other names in the future, but they are all paths I have traveled to get here.

-

This world favors women who restrain themselves, obey propriety, and follow the rules.

They are likened to orchids and lotuses, graceful and lovely.

I alone prefer the fiery red lotus. I love its blazing heat, and how it consumes everything.

A bewitching beauty is my blade; a proud, enduring spirit is my shield.

-

My name may be Cao'er, but my life is not cheap.

-

Don't give me even the slightest opportunity, or I will do whatever it takes to climb to the top.

-

I set a fire in the hearts of men. Its flames roared, scorching everything in their path, until at last they spread across the entire city of Shengjing.
