[Crossover] A Lady's Ambition

The story of Shisan, part of the Elegant Lady series. My life has two parts. The first is dark enough to serve as the tragic backstory of any rags-to-riches protagonist. The second is domineering enough to qualify me as the wicked female rival in any romance drama. It wasn't until the old man Yuan Qianshan picked me up from under a park bench and took me home that I realized Cinderella stories could actually happen in real life. But as Hitachiin Kaoru wisely said, a person should be content and find joy in what they have. So I've always felt that when it comes to little things like having a crush, it's best not to bother anyone. Just keep it tucked away in your heart. Unfortunately, it seems that even the person I secretly love doesn't feel the same way. [Reading Guide] 1. Part of the Elegant Lady series. For the prequel, visit the author's page and look for "The Elegance of a Lady." 2. A melodramatic romance, but it should still be adorable. 3. The heroine is extremely Mary Sue. 4. The cover was generously provided by the wonderful Xi Ran. Love her!
