After transmigrating into a period novel as a cannon-fodder female character, Su Yao has barely given birth to a daughter when her father-in-law calls her a useless money-waster. Before her postpartum confinement is even over, he forces her to work in the fields.
Her mother-in-law secretly slips her a stack of cash. “Go find Zheng'er. This is all I can do for you.”
Clutching her newborn daughter, Su Yao flees her in-laws' home and makes her way to the military base.
Her cold-faced commanding officer husband feels nothing but a sense of duty toward her? No problem.
The orchestra's beloved star has her in her sights? No problem.
Su Yao is best at two things in this life: fighting back against manipulation and making that abstinent officer lose control.
