For Zhang Qinyao, she was more mature than others since childhood. Influenced by her mother, she understood the importance of befriending the powerful and ingratiating herself with people who had backgrounds.
Her family was only considered middle-class in Binhai. From a young age, her mother instilled in her the idea that to squeeze into the real upper social circle, she must use her advantages, seize every opportunity, and claw her way up!
Her mother, when she was young, climbed up at all costs, but unfortunately, her abilities were limited. In the end, she was crushed and gave up, and then due to a very accidental opportunity, got pregnant by Zhang Qinyao's father and had to marry him.
Her entire life was resigned to fate, so she placed all her hopes on her daughter, hoping her daughter could accomplish the grand plan she couldn't achieve, break into high society, and bring her glory and triumph!
