[Modern Sweet Romance + Rivalry for Her Affections + Top-Tier Wealthy Families + Seduction and Social Climbing + Satisfying Revenge]
Yue Fuguang was selfish and cold, born into humble circumstances. She was the campus belle of Jing University, worlds apart from the powerful men of the capital's elite circle.
When those powerful men asked her to make their relationships official, everyone thought she would be moved.
Instead, she played the perfect balancing act, taking pleasure in manipulating their hearts.
She trusted no men, only herself.
Because her mother, for love, had waited alone for a man for fifteen years, right up until she died.
Love had turned into hatred.
Carrying that same hatred, Yue Fuguang rejected her father's belated attempt to acknowledge her, got into Jing University, and carefully chose her targets, hoping to climb into high society.
She would rise to a place her father, who had abandoned his wife and daughter to marry into a wealthy family, could never reach in his lifetime.

The first to fall for her was the capital's princeling, Shen Moyan, the aloof and self-possessed campus heartthrob.
He broke his nineteen-year vow of abstinence for her.
But just when he loved her most, she left him a breakup letter and climbed into the arms of Fu Zheng, a colonel in the military district.
The two childhood friends turned against each other from then on.
No one thought she would be foolish enough to give up such a powerful connection, one that had lifted her to the top and let her cross class boundaries.
Yet after getting what she wanted and growing bored, she moved into a research institute overnight.
Gu Yanzhi, the mad scientist, really fell for it too, handing over the project he had poured his life's work into so she could practice on it.
But on the day he planned to propose, he was beaten to it by Zhou Yanbai, notorious for being a spoiled playboy.
He dismissed his entire harem and became forceful and dependable.
But Yue Fuguang still hadn't settled down...
Surrounded by her exes, she said, "I was just playing you. How did you all take it seriously? I never wanted to be anyone's canary in a gilded cage."
The corners of Shen Moyan's lips drooped, but when he met her innocent gaze, he suppressed his anger. "If you were going to fool me, why not keep it up for a lifetime?"
With a click, he locked the door in the dark room and closed in assertively.
On the other side of the door stood four other favored sons of heaven.
"Be a good girl, sweetheart. Open the door."
