Yang Zijin traveled through time, only to find herself the owner of a brothel... dressed as a man. Then, ten years later, her father and step-mother find her. They're very high status, except her step-mother is more treacherous than she can imagine. Yang Zijin sets off to make herself rich and battle her step-mother. Everything is going according to plan until, she fools around with a Nobleman and gets more than she bargained for.
"Zijin, how do you think I should draw my eyebrows?"
"Come closer, Sister Chazi. Let me draw for you." Yang Zijin, dressed in men's clothing, held the charcoal pencil. She squatted casually down on the table and leaned to Chazi to draw her eyebrows.
There were Yanhong, Xunhuan, Junle, Youqing and Lvshui around Chazi. They were scantily-clothed with red faces and stared at the movement of Yang Zijin.
"Look! How about now?" Yang Zijin raised her chin with pride. She shook her hairdo, rolled up the sleeves of the black robe, picked up a box of face powder with a grin and said, "Now, who is the next one?"
"You little bastard! You wanna play the make on your sisters with no growing-up?"
Yang Zijin shook her head and said in earnest, "No, you're wrong, Sister Junle. I grew up in Spring Breeze and you're my mother's girls. So you're mine too, right? By the way, I'm 16 years old now. Why don't you come with me to the bed and see if I am grown up?"
Junle widened her eyes with a thin fan in her hand, and then laughed amorously with the fan covering her face. "Look, look! Our Spring Breeze's Young Master has known so much now!"
The girls all laughed, but Yang Zijin suddenly felt bored. She curled her mouth and came down from the table. Before she stood steady, she saw Lu'an rushed in with a badly beaten face.
Yang Zijin was so nervous and asked urgently, "Lu'an, what happened?"
"Young, Young Master, something terrible happened!"
"What?"
Lu'an said incoherently, "Front, in the front..."
Yang Zijin became serious and said while walking, "Stay here!"
When she walked to the front room of Spring Breeze, she saw Madam Yang and other girls kneeling down the stairs and shivering. There were two bloody male corpses lying on the stairs, and both were servants in Spring Breeze.
Looking up again, she saw a man holding a sword on the second floor, with his hair hanging down loosely. He only wore a robe, showing off his firm muscle lines.
Yang Zijin shook her head. It was not the right time to be infatuated with men.
"Sir, I don't know..."
The man suddenly raised his head. With only one glance, it shocked Yang Zijin.
It was Shuo Ling!
Shuo Ling was the youngest and coldest Lord in Jing City. Nobody dared to provoke him!
Few years ago, Old Marquis Shuo, who was famous all over the world, sacrificed on the battlefield. He left his only son, Shuo Ling, just 16 years old. The Emperor was sorrowful. And, he hated that he couldn't treat Shuo Ling who had inherited the peerage as his own son, so he just protected Shuo Ling very carefully.
It didn't matter. Most important was that Shuo Ling was famous for his neat freak and bad temper. In Jing City, nobody dared to provoke him. When encountered on the street, nobody dared to look at him.
And this Marquis Shuo also had a famous taboo, which was, never infatuated with women.
If anyone's daughter coveted his look or identity and wanted to have a sexual relation with him, she would be kicked or even killed. No matter what family she came from, she would be treated ruthlessly.
But, such a guy, why did he come to Spring Breeze?
And look at his absent-minded eyes. Was he drugged?
"Mom, call the doctor!" Yang Zijin whispered, and she kept walking backwards. "Sisters, close your doors, and stop discussing!"
"Zijin..." Madam Yang said with trembling.
But this word seemed to be piercing Shuo Ling's nerves. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Zijin, gazing a while, and then said hoarsely, "Come on."
Yang Zijin wanted to turn around and run as soon as possible. Who dared to stay in front of Shuo Ling at this moment?
"Come on now. If you don't, then your mother is the next!"
"I'm coming. I'm coming..." Yang Zijin bit her teeth bitterly. When she tilted her head, she blinked her eyes at Lu'an who was peeking at the door. Zijin saw that Lu'an ran out quickly, and then she had to step forward.
When she didn't reach the second floor, Shuo Ling suddenly flew towards her, holding Yang Zijin and lowering his head to kiss her...
Madam Yang screamed loudly, "Zijin!"
She had protected Zijin for 16 years. Since the day she found Zijin, she taught her to dress like a man and protected her carefully.
Madam Yang was afraid that Zijin would be molested by her guests in Spring Breeze. She was also afraid that Zijin would be like other girls, ending up her miserable life in the brothel.
Today, she was unexpectedly... by a man.
Although Shuo Ling was a noble Lord, he would slaughter all people in Spring Breeze afterwards.
Crackling!
Madam Yang didn't breathe for a while and fell to the ground.
At that moment, other girls gasped and panicked. They didn't know Yang Zijin was a girl. They just knew that they had seen something terrible. Marquis Shuo made out with the Young Master of Spring Breeze.
Screwed!
Yang Zijin was shocked. She was dressed like a man. No matter how strong the medicine in Shuo Ling's body was, he shouldn't hold her...
