Mu Zhaozhao's fiance took a concubine, and the scandal not only cost her her marriage but also got her sent off to Shu. She became a laughingstock throughout Yanjing.
Badly hurt by it all, she decides to close her heart to love and live a quiet life.
One day, a young man with a bruised and swollen face looks at her with watery eyes. She means to turn and leave, but the boy dares to grab her skirt.
Later, weary of a lonely future, she wants a child of her own.
To repay her kindness, the young man offers himself to her and swears that once he has helped her conceive, he will never bother her again.
She sizes up the handsome young man and, after weighing the pros and cons, agrees.
Only, the process of trying for a child... Mu Zhaozhao regrets it so much she could kick herself.
Just then, a letter from home informs her that her mother is gravely ill. She packs her things and leaves that very night, leaving the young man a large sum of money and a farewell letter.
The young man grips the letter, his thin lips pressed tight and his gaze dark and menacing.
Two years later, the spring examination results are announced. Her father beams as he drags her along to meet the new top-ranked candidate, a third-place palace graduate.
Mu Zhaozhao looks at the refined, distinguished young man and can't help swallowing.
Not long afterward, someone asks her about the newly appointed third-place palace graduate, and Mu Zhaozhao calmly replies, "We're not close."
That night, the palace graduate pins her against a wall and kisses her senseless. The man runs his fingers over her lips, his voice dangerous as he asks, "Big Sister, I hear we're not close?"
