Shrouding the Heavens

[I'm planning to start this one next, so please bookmark it in advance!!!]

[1] The Fifth Young Lady of the Yongding Marquis's Residence was born without a legitimate claim to her position. She looks delicate, gentle, and kind, but is in fact a scheming beauty through and through.

With a life as precarious as duckweed and a fate as insignificant as a blade of grass, Shen Shili has to pretend to be innocent and play the victim just to get by while living under someone else's roof. She even takes advantage of her cousin Fu, who is madly in love with her, to escape the terrible crime of “killing her father.”

But after escaping with her life, Shen Shili is not content to bear Fu Zhiheng's children without a name or status.

As the Yongding Marquis's body is about to be discovered, her gaze falls upon the young nobleman of Prince Xian's residence.

[2] In the eyes of the world, Shen Shili is beautiful, elegant, and gentle, like a noble young lady from an aristocratic family.

But her first man, Fu Zhiheng, knows that Shen Shili seems to have only one purpose in life: to rise above her station and hold absolute power.

For this, she does not hesitate to abandon him, her “benefactor,” and turn the very methods she used against her enemies on him.

Fu Zhiheng resents her and hates her to the bone, yet he cannot stop himself from thinking of her...

[3] As the only legitimate son of Prince Xian, the future Crown Prince, Pei Zongqi had thought that, aside from a healthy body, he would be born with everything he could want.

That is, until he met Shen Shili, who kept him at arm's length.

Even after he had gone to great lengths to hold her in his arms, Pei Zongqi still felt he could never win her sincere affection.

He was not blind to her strange behavior. He simply loved her so deeply that he could not let her go, so he chose to let her do as she pleased.

A captivating, ruthless woman who will stop at nothing to climb higher × a possessive “ex-husband” who refuses to let go × a frail young nobleman who indulges her for love

A story about a beautiful, strong, and tragic heroine who is wholly focused on her ambitions, while the men want to talk about love.

Reading notes:

The heroine had an unhappy childhood and is psychologically twisted, but she also does good deeds and has a good side. All the other main characters have their flaws as well as their strengths. Feel free to criticize or discuss the story itself, but the characters' values do not represent the author's. Please do not make personal attacks.

Both male leads are virgins; the heroine marries a second time.
