In his past life, Lu Chen's cowardice led to Bai Yiyi's tragic death while saving him. Reborn on the very day of Bai Yiyi's wedding, he storms the ceremony and snatches her away—immediately provoking her fiancé, Jiang Chu. To win over Bai Yiyi's mother, Bai Lan, and recruit powerful allies like Chu Linglong and Lu Baiyue, he thwarts one conspiracy after another—first Jiang Family's schemes, then Shen Tian's plots from the Qilin Merchant Guild—transforming from a universally despised weakling into the undisputed sovereign of Yunhai.
