On the night of a lunar eclipse, Xie Wan was marked as the ill-fated lone star.
Growing up in a Taoist temple, Xie Wan returned home to find herself without her parents. She faced external threats from vicious wolves while dealing with younger brothers crying for food.
To make matters worse, her biased grandmother had her heart set on driving Xie Wan out of the residence.
A certain man said, "Enough with the preambles, get to the point!"
"Oh," Xie Wan smiled faintly, "the point is, I've taken a liking to someone. I'll plan step by step, enticing him, using his influence to establish my family's power, and employing his help to uncover the truth."
The man wasn't pleased, "Aren't you supposed to seize the opportunity and take me down?"
Xie Wan replied calmly, "No hurry, no hurry. What's in the bowl won't go cold, even if we wait to eat it later."
The man retorted, "I feel pretty urgent though."
Xie Wan: ...

The Marquis's Daughter Seduced the Prince, and He Can't Resist Anymore

The crowd turned their attention to the noblewoman who spoke up. Xie Wan remembered her as Chu Yun, the legitimate daughter of the prefect of Shuntian Residence.


Chu Yun looked at Xie Wan with a shy smile. “If Sister Xie doesn’t mind.”


Before Xie Wan could respond, another noblewoman nearby snorted. “Why would she mind? It’s already good enough if she can wear it. Besides, Sister Chu’s garments have always been exquisite. She probably hasn’t worn anything as nice in her whole life.”


To be honest, although Xie Wan grew up in a Taoist temple, the late Marquis’s wife treated her like a treasure, always providing her with the best food, clothing, and necessities. She only became poor after taking over the Marquis Residence.


Han Jing felt uncomfortable hearing those words. He wanted to speak up for Xie Wan, but Sun Xuan pulled on his sleeve.


Little ancestor, didn’t you notice that the Ma siblings keep trying to label you and Xie Wan with a secret relationship?!
