Sang Tangwan was born into a family wealthier than the state, and her beauty was unmatched. She was every young nobleman's first love in the capital.
Unfortunately, she had been betrothed from a young age to her childhood sweetheart, Zhao Chengxi, Duke of Anguo. They were deeply devoted to each other and could imagine marrying no one else.
On the eve of their wedding, the emperor suddenly punished the Sang family.
The very next day, Zhao Chengxi, who had once cherished her like a treasure, tore up their betrothal contract in public. Their lifelong affection became a great joke.

Sang Tangwan picked up a cat and was planning to trick someone into ruining her business rival's trade.
But when the carriage curtain lifted, the person sitting inside was Zhao Chengxi, the former fiancé who had abandoned her three years ago.
Zhao Chengxi was as aloof and noble as ever, looking down on everyone. Without bothering to learn the truth, he robbed her of the silver she'd worked so hard to earn!
Sang Tangwan wasn't about to put up with him. She turned around and extorted more than ten times that amount from his current fiancée, then happily opened a silk shop.
From then on, she opened silk shops, grain shops, spice shops… her businesses spread across the world, with all kinds of goods shipped overseas. Her success became unstoppable.
On Sang Tangwan's birthday, a friend sent a whole line of the capital's most popular male courtesans to her residence.
Sang Tangwan let her fingertips wander over several muscular chests.
“I'll favor this one today, and that one tomorrow…”
Zhao Chengxi said nothing as he tossed all the male courtesans out.
Halfway through her wine, Sang Tangwan looked at him through bleary eyes. “What are you doing?”
Zhao Chengxi held her captive in his arms. “When will you favor me?”
