My fiancé became the top scorer in the imperial exams and won a princess's favor. He looked down on me, a country bumpkin, and wanted to break off our engagement. He even joined forces with his mother to humiliate me. Fine, let him break it off. I still have an emperor for a father and a childhood friend who's a young lord. Even if I end up alone, I can still win any argument. I went to the capital to reunite with my family and set the lovelorn princess straight. The real and fake princesses joined forces to punish the scumbag. After plenty of bickering and squabbling, I learned that Gou Dan, the boy next door, was actually the young lord. Gou Dan and I found our happily ever after. In the end, the scumbag regretted everything and wept bitterly. I smiled and said, “The world is full of distractions, so without powerful connections, you'd better keep your head down.”
