[Arrogant, unhinged puppy-like younger man × great beauty]

Qin Jiangzhao, the second young lady of the Duke of Qin's household, waits years for her fiance after coming of age.

But at her fiance's victory celebration, she is saved by Prince Zhao Yunlang and becomes the subject of public condemnation.

With no choice, she takes the initiative to break off the engagement, and her circumstances grow difficult from then on.

By that time, Zhao Yunlang no longer loves and trusts Qin Jiangzhao like he did when he was young. After a sudden upheaval and a misunderstanding, he has resented her for years.

When they meet again, he warns Qin Jiangzhao: If you see me, stay out of my way.

He doesn't appreciate her kindness and even says cruel things to sever their relationship.

But in private, he's heartbroken and devastated. Only after learning that Qin Jiangzhao has broken off her engagement does he finally catch his breath. He goes to great lengths to marry her and bring her to his manor.

He hands over all his wealth and, without a word, prepares dozens of sets of rouge and powder, fine clothes, jewelry, and more for her.

Zhao Yunlang's ulterior motives are glaringly obvious, but Qin Jiangzhao still doesn't know.

At first, Zhao Yunlang remains awkward, but he's reasonably obedient. Still, when he gets jealous, he's more than she can handle.

Only later does she gradually realize that his possessiveness is nearly mad. Unfortunately, by then it's too late.

He Yunxi is a little princess cherished and spoiled by the emperor and empress. She fears nothing, except her dignified, reserved elder brother, the crown prince.

But when she is seventeen, she suddenly learns that she's a fake princess.

The Chu family girl who came to the palace under the pretext of attending a selection exposes He Yunxi's true identity. No, Chu Yunxi's true identity. She reclaims her position as princess and is treasured by the guilt-ridden emperor and empress.

Meanwhile, Chu Yunxi loses their favor completely in an instant, falls from the clouds into the mud, and is about to be sent back to the Chu family.

Her birth mother died long ago, and Chu Yunxi expects life back with the Chu family to be difficult.

The emperor and empress shut her out, so she turns to the crown prince.

Chu Yunxi kneels beside He Yuan's desk and pleads humbly, "Crown Prince Brother, can you ask Mother Empress to let me stay?"

He Yuan lifts her delicate chin with a ruler. His gaze darkens as he looks at the red corners of her eyes. "Who are you calling your brother?"

After returning from the crown prince's study, Chu Yunxi cries as she packs her things that very night.

But early the next morning, an imperial decree from the empress arrives, allowing her to stay in the capital as a palace selection candidate in the Eastern Palace.

As soon as he walks in, he sees Chu Yunxi tugging at her collar and pointing at the conspicuous red marks on her fair neck as she cries to the empress, "Mother Empress, I don't want to be a palace selection candidate anymore. Crown Prince Brother bullied me!"
