The Scheming Beauty

By chance, Gu Qingxuan, the young marquis of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's residence, went to Changzhou on official business. At his ancestral home, he met a maid who looked just like his cousin, Xue Hualan.

The maid was graceful and slender, delicate and demure, like a timid little white rabbit.

So lovely she made you want to protect her.

Gu Qingxuan was taken with her and began to consider bringing her back to the capital.

*

Su Mu had transmigrated.

To escape the fate of being a hereditary servant, she secretly set about seducing Gu Qingxuan.

When she heard the servants say she looked like the young lady, she imitated her at every turn, posing coquettishly, and successfully caught Gu Qingxuan's attention.

To win his favor, Su Mu went to great lengths to cultivate the image of a fragile little white rabbit who couldn't fend for herself.

She acted coy and pitiful around Gu Qingxuan, played hard to get, and used all sorts of calculated tricks, like swaying her waist and teasing him with her sash.

In the end, she made this aloof man, who kept his distance from women, consider bringing her back to the capital.

*

Everyone in the residence assumed she was trying to climb the social ladder.

Who would have guessed that Su Mu had secretly saved up enough money, then cleverly manipulated Madam Sheng, the marquis's wife?

She tricked her out of a free commoner status and a dowry, then took advantage of Gu Qingxuan's absence on official business to pack up and make a successful getaway.

With the skills she'd honed making silk flowers, Su Mu became a wealthy woman and lived a blissful little life.

Gu Qingxuan, who had been treated like a tool from beginning to end: “???”

This is unforgivable!!!
