A calm, clear-headed daughter of a military family versus a cunning, sweet-talking prince
In her previous life, she was blind to the truth. She gave up her rightful place as the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan and let the Fourth Prince manipulate her as he pleased. Then, as soon as he ascended the throne, the entire Shen family was executed, and she was sent off with a noose of white silk.
Only after dying once did she learn that the royal family had no love to offer, only schemes.
Reborn five years earlier, Shen Jinshu's head still ached, but her heart had hardened. This time, the princes could stay out of her way. No one was going to use her as a pawn!
She would protect her foolish parents and brothers, who were still alive, and expose every dirty trick being used against them behind the scenes.
The Fourth Prince, Xu Huaiyong, wanted to try his old tricks again? Sorry, Shen Jinshu wouldn't play along this time.
Anyone who dared touch the Shen family would pay in blood!
But then the Seventh Prince, Xu Huaiyi, appeared out of nowhere. On the surface, he was an overlooked, pitiful “little green-tea puppy,” always sidling up to her with red-rimmed eyes. Behind her back, though, this dog of a man was more calculating than anyone. Not only did he fend off her suitors and tear apart fake sweethearts, he shamelessly stuck to her and refused to be shaken off!
