Stealing Jade

Fu Lingyao was born with skin as fair as snow and beauty as brilliant as a flower, dazzling beyond compare.

She also came from a prestigious family in Jiangdong and had been cherished and doted on since childhood, raised in exquisite luxury.

But Jiangdong fell, her father's subordinates rebelled, and her wealthy fiance's family happily withdrew and broke off the engagement.

With no way out, she could only take her younger sister and seek refuge with her former brother-in-law, the head of the powerful He family of Yanzhou, He Tingzhang.

He Tingzhang was cold and rigid, known as a walking embodiment of frigid propriety.

He received his former fiancee's younger sister with polite distance and impeccable manners.

To avenge her father, she had no choice but to use the He family's name to socialize everywhere, becoming a dazzling jewel of high society and drawing the attention of wealthy young gentlemen.

But once the social calls were over and the banquets had ended,

in the He residence,

her rigid, reserved former brother-in-law would calmly grip her by the waist.

"Lingyao, isn't my power greater than theirs?"

A seemingly composed, rigid man who is actually a repressed, refined rogue, a mature man whose old heart finally catches fire x a dazzling beauty who knows how to read the room and is a little bratty
