Since childhood, Su Qingluo had noticed that everyone favored her father's illegitimate daughter, Su Miaomiao.
Everything that belonged to her was taken away.
Her father, her home, her jewelry, her clothes...
Even the guard she loved most had fallen for Su Miaomiao.
He concealed his identity as the heir to the title for her, lowering himself to serve as a mere guard.
He spent lavishly for her, just to win a smile from the beauty.
He even laid hands on Su Qingluo to avenge her.
At last, Su Qingluo gave up on love entirely and married the Nanyang Prince, who was supposedly on his deathbed.
She was ready to become a coldhearted, wealthy young widow!
But why was this supposedly dying husband still clinging to life?
As he kept gasping for breath, the aloof heir who knelt and begged her forgiveness was sent to the crematorium!
As he kept gasping for breath, children came running all over the prince's estate!
As he kept gasping for breath, she became empress!
Su Qingluo, wait! She'd been tricked!
The sickly man of the Nanyang Prince's household lived to be a hundred!
