She is Ji Cheng, the daughter of a wealthy merchant. Once innocent and carefree, her life takes a dark turn when she faces the threat of forced marriage by Zhu Jijun, an event that leads to her second brother being brutally beaten and left with a broken leg.
Determined to secure a better future, Ji Cheng resolves to marry into a powerful family.
Taking advantage of the sixtieth birthday celebration of the elderly Lady Shen, Ji Cheng moves into her aunt's home. From being a beloved and pampered young lady, she becomes an unwelcome guest living under someone else's roof, forced to endure humiliation and neglect.
Ji Cheng treads carefully as she navigates her relationships with the Shen family's daughters and the sisters from the Wang and Su families. Despite facing exclusion, envy, jealousy, and even schemes against her, she quietly relies on her wit and intelligence to overcome each challenge.
Her brilliance and beauty eventually attract the attention of several suitors, the young masters of the Shen family. However, these gentlemen remain reserved and do not openly express their feelings.
This allows He Cheng, a military officer, to take the lead and secure an engagement with Ji Cheng. Just when everything seems to be falling into place, the second young master of the Shen family, the notorious playboy Shen Che, disrupts the arrangement.
What are his true intentions? Will Ji Cheng be able to find a good marriage and secure her happiness?
