Kan Teo

Li Helen, a nameless runaway in a small town, runs her own business, running a small but cheerful tavern. Arriving in Lin'an while pregnant and unmarried, Helen risked falling out of favor with the locals, but thanks to her kindness and cheerful disposition, she quickly settled in.

Despite her cheerfulness, the girl turned out to be tenacious and enterprising; after two years, even with a baby in her arms, she became a respected hostess throughout the entire district.

Only the closest maids knew that the Lady had fled. She had spent her entire life running from a man whose love was like death. The former concubine of the younger prince, Kang Teo, Mo Helen, was forced to flee palace intrigues and the younger prince's obsession with her. Having changed her name and hidden her daughter from her father, she prayed for a peaceful and inglorious life in a small town, far from Kang Teo.
