She has a strong self-esteem, after her family fortunes declined, she’s still keen on face-saving, she believes that one day this misfortune princess will be able to turn over!

Background:
Kiong Kwiong was brought up in a wealthy family since childhood and is loved dearly by her parents, she sees her happiness as naturally. Although her parents looked impressive on the outside, but due to a mistake in investments, they owed huge debts that they were unable to pay back. The two concealed this from their daughter and ran away to escape the debts. Kiong Kwiong was completely in the dark all the time, until one day, she realized she was bequeathed by her parents. At the same time, she also found out that she’s actually her parents’ adoptive daughter!

Encounters
It turns out that Kiong Kwiong’s biological parents are overseas Chinese with a Japanese nationality. Because her father was an excessive drinker, her mother ran away from home with their two-years-old Kiong Kwiong. Sadly, her mother later died due to an acute disease. That time a wealthy couple without children just visited Japan as tourists. They encountered this lonely girl, thus they adopted her as daughter.

Kiong Kwiong lost her parents and living trust in one night, she also lost her identity. Luckily Yu Ji Yeng who she just met helped her solve her troubles, Ji Yeng even suggested her to live in his house, this way she was at least not as helpless and homeless. Kiong Kwiong had to adapt to the ordinary life of civilians which is not that easy. Ji Yeng took on the role of coach without hesitation, he had to educate Kiong Kwiong how to live a “civilian’s life”. This way, Ji Yeng accompanied Kiong Kwiong in her life’s most difficult days.

Ji Yeng would participate in a sushi competition and Kiong Kwiong followed him to Japan. Unexpectedly, this trip let her encounter Mou Yung Ching again, who is a strange tempered buyer at a fish market. Ji Yeng wanted to win the competition and asked Mou Yung Ching to be his master, but Mou Yung Ching strongly refused to accept any pupils. Kiong Kwiong did everything she could to convince him. During this course of events, Mou Yung Ching found out she’s actually his biological daughter.

After Mou Yung Ching got to know about Kiong Kwiong’s hated towards her biological father for being an excessive drinker back then and causing their family to be ruined and broken, he did not dare to tell her their true relation. However, Ji Yeng got to know this inadvertently. As a result, Mou Yung Ching agreed with accepting Ji Yeng as his pupil. Kiong Kwiong did not know that all this is because Mou Yung Ching is mindful of their father-daughter relation. After Kiong Kwiong finds out their relation, she couldn’t be released of the fact that her father caused her mother to die. Luckily, under Ji Yeng’s thoroughgoing pulling, Kiong Kwiong could also understand how Mou Yung Ching blamed himself over the years. Eventually she forgave him, the father and daughter reconciled.

Later, when Ji Yeng and Ji Hiu became enemies, Ji Yeng was demoralized. Kiong Kwiong did everything she could to help him return his fighting will. Yet she refused to admit her affection for Ji Yeng, and insisted that her relation with Ji Yeng can at most be called ‘more than friends, less than lovers’ only. This is because she always had a superficial and silly thought: only an outstanding young talent could match with her. Moreover she knows that in Ji Yeng’s heart Choi Shi Lung is his crush. She could only leave this love at the bottom of her heart, and be brother-sister with Ji Yeng.

It’s the Lunar New Year now!!

Character Information:
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Occupation: Maid in Wah Family

Character:
Straightforward, has her own opinion, principled, totally contrary to the virtues moral excellence from the four beauties; but because of these special characteristics, it deeply attracted the flirtatious scholar Tong Bak Fu.

Treats people sincerely, helpful, the most doted maid servant; considerate, kind-hearted, careful, patient, value family relationships, dedicated to love.

Background:
Chau Heung’s original name was Ho Chung Yan. Ever since she was young, she lost her mother, and only had her father with her to depend on. Actually her father Ho Ying Hung was the leader of a martial arts society. Chau Heung was deeply influenced by her father’s principles, and felt that there is a need to know how to distinguish between right and wrong. She was determined to inherit her father’s values, and so learnt martial arts from him at a young age, and trained up to be good in martial arts.

As a plague epidemic occurred, Ying Hung unfortunately was infected with it. Fortunately a philanthropist, Wah Hung San, contributed by donating his medicine, thus saving her father’s life. Ever since then, Chau Heung and her father regarded Hung San as their benefactor. When the Wah family was recruiting personal maids and guards, in order to show her gratitude, Chau Heung decided to take up the offer, and she then changed her name to Chau Heung. She was responsible for serving the first madam of the Wah family, and she was being doted upon.

Unlike the other ordinary maid servants, Chau Heung knew how to read and write, and she admired the talents and stylish writing of Jiangnan scholar Tong Bak Fu, and even regarded him as her idol. Because her father doted on her a lot, he even copied Bak Fu’s poetry anthology and gave it to her. Although the poetry anthology had several mistakes, but because it was filled with her father’s love, Chau Heung regarded it as treasure.

Encounters
Suzhou town council had the honour to invite “Tong Bak Fu” to display his talents impromptu. Being his fan, Chan Heung rushed to the venue to see when she first learnt about it, and later revealed that the “Tong Bak Fu” was an imposter which made Chau Heung feeling disappointed. Later, Chau Heung met the real Tong Bak Fu, and was completely ignorant of his identity though they had met three times, but she only unconsciously smiled at him three times. With the three smiles, this led Bak Fu to go crazy over her, and was determined to pursue her.

Bak Fu changed his identity as “Wah On” in order to get close to Chau Heung, but there were several misunderstandings which made Chau Heung disgusted with him. Later she found out that her good sister Sek Lau fell in love with Bak Fu, and her relationship with Bak Fu became more complicated. There was once Chau Heung was chasing after a thief, and she caused the collapse of the six art halls which was built by Gam Yat Tim. Because of this, she was caught in a lawsuit crisis, fortunately Bak Fu managed to resolve it, and therefore Chau Heung had a change of impression towards him.

At this time, Emperor Jing Duk was visiting Suzhou. A treacherous official exerted pressure on Wah Hung San to offer Chau Heung as a gift to the emperor! Chau Heung hated when people abused their powers, and refused to approve, but yet did not want Wah Hung San to come to any harm; Fortunately Bak Fu had a plan in his mind, he taught Chau Heung to display her martial arts skills in front of everyone as this would scare them. Having to get along with Cha Heung, Jing Duk had a good impression on her, and wanted to take her as his concubine……

Chau Heung initially rejected Jing Duk. On the surface, she resisted, but the fact was she was secretly in love with “Wah On”, just that he did not know about it. Just when both of their relationship had gone one step further, suddenly “Wah On”’s true identity was discovered! Chau Heung realised that “Wah On” was actually Bak Fu whom she had always admired, and she was unable to accept it.

When Chau Heung witnessed Bak Fu repeatedly refused to join Jing Duk and Prince Ning, she felt that Bak Fu had no ambition and that their values differ. Even if Hung San wanted to show his thanks to Bak Fu, and chose Chau Heung to be his wife, but it was only a tentative marriage contract for one year.

Wah family faced a crisis whereby the entire household had to be beheaded, Wah Hung San asked Bak Fu back for rescue; In order to repay Prince Ning, Bak Fu was invited to the palace to help him out with an investigation, and requested to bring Chau Heung to take care of him, Chau Heung was forced to face Bak Fu once again. Chau Heung and Bak Fu carried out with the investigation, and along the course, they had to find the “white tooth” information. This caused them to develop feelings for one another unknowingly.

When both of them discovered that Prince Ning had the conspiracy to revolt, Bak Fu felt that it was best to avoid and escape first. However Chau Heung did not think the same way as him, she felt that it concerned the country’s turmoil, and she insisted Bak Fu to stay low in order to rescue the country’s calamity. Chau Heung finally angered Bak Fu, and eventually touched Bak Fu! In this case, Chau Heung found out that Prince Ning’s daughter, Ting Yuk, was fond of Bak Fu. But she was also stunned to learn that her father had joined the “Heaven and Earth Alliance”, because he wanted to restore Emperor Wai’s legitimism……
