Blossoms in Adversity

After hiding her true abilities for fifteen years, Hua Zhi believed she could live a steady life as the perfect young lady of a prestigious family. But when the Hua family stands on the brink of collapse, she has no choice but to reveal her sharpness and step forward to support her crumbling household.

Showing her face in public becomes the norm; riding at full gallop is nothing unusual. When pushed to the brink, she even goes so far as to carry a coffin with her younger siblings to force a desperate stand. Her fierce reputation spreads throughout the capital, making her someone not to be trifled with.

She steels herself for the possibility that her own family might one day turn against her and betray her, and prepares for a lifetime of solitude. Yet, the one thing she never expected was that someone would don his armor and, before heading off to war, promise her a lifetime together.
