Ming Zhen was sold into the Jinhe Marquis's household at the age of six, becoming a little maid who swept and cleaned in Madam Qin's courtyard. At twelve, she became a second-class maid to Madam Qin. At eighteen, Madam Qin arranged for her to become the heir Jin Tianhe's bedchamber maid. Not long after Jin He married, Ming Zhen served tea to the principal wife and became one of Jin Tianhe's concubines. At twenty-six, jealous of how much Jin Tianhe doted on Ming Zhen, the principal wife deliberately delayed getting help while Ming Zhen was giving birth, taking advantage of Jin Tianhe's absence from the household. Ming Zhen and her child died together. After death, Ming Zhen's spirit lingered around the marquis's residence. There, she discovered that Jin Tianhe, whom she had believed loved her deeply, merely replied, "I see," when he heard of her death. He never followed up, not even asking how she had died. After that, Jin Tianhe took one concubine after another, nearly all of them resembling Ming Zhen in some way. Everyone said he deeply loved the concubine who had died. Only Ming Zhen knew the truth: Jin Tianhe had never loved her. The only person he loved was himself. If she could live her life over, she would never fall in love with Jin Tianhe again, and she would never become a lowly concubine in his household. The moment she opened her eyes, Ming Zhen realized she was kneeling before the marquise. In the next moment, the marquise would assign her to Jin Tianhe, setting her on the path to a tragic and miserable life. This time, she chose the third young master, Jin Chenyuan, the man everyone feared and reviled.

Parents of children with autism often call their children star children. Fang Yu had a dream that she was the biological mother of the true young master in a novel called The Real and Fake Young Masters of a Wealthy Family. In nine out of ten novels, babies are switched at birth. The one thing that made this story different was that the unfortunate true young master who was switched out was her own son, a star child. Fang Yu scoffed, thinking, How could that possibly happen? Her husband's family, the Huo family, was one of the most powerful families in City A. Her own Fang family might not be as powerful as the Huos, but it was still one of the top families in the city. She had given birth at a hospital owned by the Huo family, in a private VIP room. The backgrounds of all the doctors and nurses were thoroughly checked, and even the bodyguards at the entrance had been carefully selected by the Huos. From the time her child was born until they left the hospital, he had been looked after by dedicated staff. How could the babies have been switched? But for some reason, Fang Yu felt deeply uneasy! In her dream, the fake child was showered with love by her and the Huo family, and had a smooth life. As an adult, he took charge of the Huo family and married the daughter of another wealthy family. Meanwhile, her real son had high-functioning autism. He couldn't speak or interact with people, and couldn't fit into society. He spent his entire life locked away in a Huo family care facility, living a miserable, pitiful existence. Fang Yu didn't want to believe it, but the dream grew more and more real. In the blink of an eye, she saw herself lying in a hospital bed. A woman she didn't recognize stood before her, laughing wildly with smug delight. She said Fang Yu was lucky to be born into a wealthy family, but that hadn't stopped her from leading Fang Yu around by the nose. She also said the Huo family had discovered long ago that the babies had been switched. But because Fang Yu's child was a lunatic, while her own child was lively and adorable, the Huos had decided to let things stand and leave her child out in the world. Finally, she said that the husband Fang Yu thought had treated her with mutual respect and loved her all his life had betrayed her long ago. He had always truly loved her, and had only married Fang Yu for an alliance between their families. The story of a first-time mother and her baby with autism growing together...
