[Dramatic, streetwise heroine X scheming, devoted hero] When Qiang Wu wakes up, she has transmigrated into a historical romance novel as its widowed heroine.
Losing her husband is bad enough! Why does she have to be poor and ugly, too?
Qiang Wu: Where's my protagonist aura?
Not only does she have no protagonist aura, but the transmigration bureau has also set her KPIs: become the richest person in the land and improve women's status in ancient times.
To get back home, Qiang Wu focuses on building her career. She rescues women trapped by the conventions of the day, all while running an inn!
The more money she makes, the prettier she becomes, and soon she's surrounded by a crowd of handsome young men begging for hugs.
Yet her eyes keep drifting to Leng Shenyao, her supposedly dead husband, who is hiding behind a secret identity...
One is the cold-faced prince of the Great Zhou, and the other is a general's long-lost daughter.
They each conceal their true identities and spar with one another, waiting to see who will be the first to reveal theirs.
Qiang Wu's daily joy is flirting with handsome men to make Leng Shenyao jealous. At last, the intensely possessive Leng Shenyao loses his temper and reveals who he is.
The cold prince's secret identity is finally exposed. He pins Qiang Wu beneath him. "I hear you think your husband is useless?"
Qiang Wu raises an eyebrow and kicks away his restraint. "It's not what I think. You really are useless!"
They have an intense night together. The next morning, Qiang Wu rubs her lower back and gives him a thumbs-up. "You can do it. You're really good. You're the toughest guy in all of Great Zhou!"
The gossiping crowd who spent all night listening at the wall: ???!!!???
The pretty boy kept by the innkeeper is actually her dead husband!!!
And he's even tougher than the innkeeper herself!!!
Theme: A woman focused on building her career is beautiful; women hold up half the sky.
