Ye Qingwan, the Seventh Miss of the Ye family—a clan of former Qing Dynasty loyalists—was the most well-behaved young lady in Shanghai. Yet beneath her poised and beautiful demeanor lay a fierce, unhinged nature forged by years of oppression under the feudal family. On the day she was sent as a substitute for her elder sister to a ruthless supervisor who tormented and killed young women, she plotted a scheme herself: she seduced Du Fengqi, the powerful Young Marshal of Northern Province, luring him into becoming her willing devotee. With his support, she crushed the corrupt, feudal Ye family step by step. In this romance set amid the misty chaos of the Republican era, she thought it was merely a love game filled with ambition and exploitation. Little did she know, while she cast her line as bait, he had willingly taken the hook.
