[1v1, Sweet Love] ‘The cool and domineering heiress x the aloof and decisive heir of the Huangpu family’ After returning to her homeland, Yanran Shangguan followed her grandfather’s advice and kept a low profile, treading cautiously at every turn. Yet, unexpectedly, she managed to offend someone from high society on her very second day back. What was she to do? Yanran simply shrugged—if someone comes looking for trouble, she’ll take them on, one by one! Isn’t that person so full of themselves?—Fine, she’ll take them down! Isn’t someone else plotting against her?—She’ll take them down, too! Isn’t another trying to impersonate her?—Take them down!
