Yu Wanwan is a maid, born with a captivating, alluring beauty.
The old madam of the marquis's household wants to assign her as a bedchamber maid to one of the younger members of the family. Everyone in the household knows about it, except the person involved.
One day, the old madam has her deliver some pastries to the marquis.
Yu Wanwan is nervous. Who doesn't know that the marquis is cold and aloof, treating everyone with icy indifference?
"My lord, these are custard pastries..."
As she bends over, her delicate figure gives off a sweet fragrance, and her alluring eyes brim with tenderness.
In Lu Jin's eyes, she is just another woman trying to seduce her way to the top.
He throws her out.
One night later on, Lu Jin corners her against a wall and coaxes her in a low voice: "Good girl, weren't you trying to seduce me? How about I give you that chance?"
Yu Wanwan doesn't know what to say. She only wants to earn enough money to buy her freedom. She never planned to rise in status.
After brushing him off, she packs her things and runs away.
When Lu Jin finds her, he wraps an arm around her waist and coaxes her: "What's so good about this miserable little village? Come back to the palace with me, and I'll make you empress, all right?"
