The Imperial Concubine Spurns Love

Shen Qingmo, a favored imperial concubine, dies after drinking poison and wakes in the modern era as the wife of Lu Shiyan, the richest man. Moved by his wedding vows, she longs for monogamous love, but his mistress Lin Anran appears pregnant at a birthday banquet and demands her place. Shattered, Shen Qingmo hides her pain, graciously suggests bringing Lin Anran home, but secretly abandons love and focuses on protecting her status and interests. She joins Old Mrs. Lu, who holds real power, and holds a press conference, using evidence to destroy Lin Anran's sympathetic image and stabilize the Lu Group's stock. Lin Anran stages a fall; Lu Shiyan, deceived, accidentally pushes the pregnant Shen Qingmo, causing bleeding. Shen Qingmo gives the surveillance to Old Mrs. Lu and hides her pregnancy as a bargaining chip. To counter Lin Anran, Shen Qingmo plants Ye Yu, a clever, infertile woman, as Lu Shiyan's secretary to gather intelligence and provoke Lin Anran. Jealous, Lin Anran drives into Ye Yu at the hospital. Lu Shiyan is injured saving her; Lin Anran miscarries and loses her uterus. Tests reveal Lu Shiyan was secretly drugged by Lin Anran, permanently infertile. Lin Anran is jailed. Director Fang tries to seize the group. On the bid day, which is also Shen Qingmo's due date, she completes the bid, exposes Fang's crimes, wins the project, and gives birth to twins. She rejects the repentant Lu Shiyan. Old Mrs. Lu appoints her Chairman and CEO. The concubine now holds wealth and power, free from love, starting a new life.
