Xiang Xingchen is a jewelry designer who grew up in the alleys of Baihuazhou Road in the old city.
After graduating from college, she opened a handmade jewelry shop of her own in the neighborhood. Her designs are distinctive, and her store has a unique style. But tucked away in an old-city alley, the shop gets little business. Her family all urge her to start livestreaming and selling online, but she's always been stubborn. She insists that her creations should go to people who feel a connection to them.
What's so great about selling through livestreams, anyway?
Before long, the little shop is on the verge of bankruptcy.
She falls into a slump in her business, and at the same time, problems arise at home, forcing her to close the shop and put it up for sale.
Just then, a woman in a red dress walks into the shop. Smiling, she says, "Your shop is pretty interesting. It'd be a shame to close it. Why don't I invest and become the owner? You can keep running the shop. How does that sound?"
Xiang Xingchen looks at her suspiciously.
The woman is brimming with confidence. "In less than three months, not only will your shop be thriving again, but this whole street will be back on its feet."
Xiang Xingchen's proud, stubborn face says it all: "I don't believe you."

Three months later...
On an old street now bustling with far more visitors, the usually haughty Xiang Xingchen finally bows her head to her. "Good day, Boss Li!"
Li Mingyue steps closer, gazing straight at her as she says, "What kind of boss am I in front of you? You're the boss here."
Xiang Xingchen: "..."

She and the Green Mountains
Yue opera star x heir to a wealthy family
Synopsis:
When Yun Qingshan was thirteen, she met Jing Qiuhe for the first time.
On the Yue opera stage, she played a nameless maid. In real life, she had neither parents nor family, and was adopted by the troupe at the Grand View Garden. Jing Qiuhe, twenty-seven, was said to be a wealthy young lady who had returned from studying abroad and the future heir to the Jing Group, with a bright future ahead of her.
She spotted Yun Qingshan in the crowd at a glance, and from then on, Yun Qingshan became a rose she nurtured with her own hands.
Over the next seven years, Yun Qingshan blossomed into a refined young lady and a celebrated Yue opera star, dazzling onstage.
Tickets to her performances were almost impossible to get, and countless powerful and wealthy men wanted to keep her for themselves. But she obeyed only Jing Qiuhe. In return, she brought Jing Qiuhe connections and resources, helping secure her position in the Jing Group.
But good times don't last. The family feud flares up again. Her second uncle gets hold of evidence and deals Jing Qiuhe a fatal blow, forcing her to leave the Jing Group.
Only then does she realize that the rose she nurtured with her own hands...
Had always been a thorn, waiting for the chance to pierce her...

The jewelry store opened in Baihuazhou alley, sigh. . .
Stop it now, I'll watch [Cat's Claw] tonight. Come on.
The author is very young! Words are light and airy
I also think the heroine is too soft. It's not the first day she knows who her family is. Now she is basically financially free, but she still wants to rely on unreliable people.
"Playing abuse" is a big bug for the author~ banter
Such a powerful aunt didn't teach her anything through words and deeds? And her grandma, what do lawyers do for food? Even if you pay in advance, you can't let your three sons really give up, right? Even if she has a mother-in-law and grandson, she can't be taken advantage of 💔 If she doesn't meet another heroine, she has to go out to beg for food. If you start a business and go bankrupt, you have to resign and take care of the elderly to pay medical expenses and repay loans. . . Crying without even crying (no malice)
