"I want a divorce," Xia Yuqing declared, placing the signed papers on her husband's desk.

His response?

"Pay up 50 million for breaching the marriage contract.... or make my mother despise you."

Once a powerful empress in her past life, Xia Yuqing has now transmigrated into the body of a woman with the same name, bound in a loveless contract marriage. Fed up and desperate for freedom, she decides to do both: become a money-making machine and a mother-in-law's worst nightmare.

But her plans start to hilariously backfire when her cold, distant husband suddenly begins to fall for her.

And there's a catch—he looks just like the emperor, her husband from her past life.

Now, what will Xia Yuqing do when her cold husband demands a chance at their relationship? Will the once-powerful empress choose her freedom, or will she surrender to the love she never saw coming?

Xia Yuqing and Lu Jinchen were back from their honeymoon. They were warmly welcomed by Fei Ruyan, who practically beamed as she observed them.

Now, after a three-day break, reality had come knocking. Work was piling up. Lu Jinchen left early this morning for his office. Fei Ruyan also had matters to attend to, leaving Xia Yuqing alone in the big, beautiful mansion.

What did that man do to you?
