Shang Miaoyan had been deeply troubled lately. After the monumental effort of usurping Fan Xuan's identity to get close to Pei Yuhang, she had patiently waited for Ye Liyuan to go into seclusion.
By all rights, Xiaohan should have been hers for the taking.
She never expected Lu Ruoxi, the defeated rival who had been knocked out of the running early on, to suddenly reappear and throw a wrench in her plans.
Still, Shang Miaoyan wasn't about to panic. 'Just Lu Ruoxi? A girl with no fighting spirit? A defeated rival who couldn't even take a few insults from Lin Qianyan without breaking down and shutting herself away? What is there to be afraid of?'
Besides, Lu Ruoxi couldn't stay in the Cold Palace Sword Mansion forever.
'In the end, Xiaohan is still within my grasp!'
What Shang Miaoyan hadn't expected, however, was that on the very day Lu Ruoxi left the Cold Palace Sword Mansion, Pei Yuhang's officially wed Dao Companion, Ye Liyuan, came out of seclusion!
