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."

Chu Yun looked puzzled. “But she even beat Heir Han, didn’t she?”

No one else came forward, and Xie Wan felt a little regretful. If she had known, she would have kept a lower profile, and perhaps she could have earned even more silver.


Li Yu withdrew his gaze from her face, put the jade bead back on his wrist, stood up, and turned to leave.
