With the low status of a war slave, Lili must survive in the Great Qi empire. She has two choices. To live out the rest of her life with a new identity and throwaway her past, or take her revenge on the enemies who murdered her family. As Lili struggles to make these choices, her life becomes intertwined with the young General Xiao and the royal family, and she starts to question the feelings of hate she has bottled up inside her, and the significance of her existence in the empire of Great Qi.
Her revenge, her desire, the only thing she came back for.
Her father sent her abroad in order to protect her, however in the end he couldn’t even protect himself.
Now she comes back less innocent, less naïve, and with knowledge of how the world turns.
She doesn’t want anyone else’s help. It’s her own personal business. So why is it when Lawyer Han offers her his hand, she finds him so very attractive?
