Meng Yu lost her mother when she was young and was left to fend for herself by her family. She grew up cold and aloof, yet also learned to go along with whatever happened.
She never fought or competed. If her family gave her something, she accepted it; if they didn't, she never asked.
That was until her stepmother's daughter stole her fiance, too. Her father told her to give him up, her grandmother told her to be generous, and everyone else watched gleefully from the sidelines. They all used the same excuse, "A harmonious family brings prosperity," to pressure her.
Meng Yu suddenly decided she wanted to slap every member of the Meng family in the face.
So she went to Xu Chizhou.
The man rumored to be decisive and ruthless.
This wasn't a beauty trap. It was an exchange of interests.
A reckless gamble with the ultimate goal of bringing down the Meng family.
Reader advisory: The heroine is genuinely calculating and cold-hearted. She will always love herself most.
