They Wanted Me to Be the Cannon-Fodder Legitimate Daughter, So I Turned Around and Schemed My Way into a Better Marriage

[Revenge, both leads are each other's first and only, face-slapping, reborn, the whole family gets what they deserve] [The heroine won't fall for the hero at first. She's focused on revenge.] [A seemingly innocent but ruthless, obsessive chief minister VS a soft, lovely woman who always repays a grudge] In her previous life, Xu Yijin upheld the generosity and thoughtfulness expected of an eldest legitimate daughter. Her so-called blood relatives told her that sacrificing herself for the family would be the greatest honor of her life. Xu Yijin took their words to heart. When her father's illegitimate daughter came calling while her mother was gravely ill, she drove her birth mother to her death. For the sake of her father and brother's careers, Xu Yijin swallowed her pain and accepted the girl. She thought her life would be happy and smooth from then on. Instead, her maternal family was slaughtered, her aunt died young with regrets, and her fiance married someone else. Everyone but her got their happy ending. Xu Yijin fell from a cliff, leaving no body behind. She had handed over the fruits of more than a decade's hard work, and even the good reputation she'd built over the years had become a gift to someone else. How could she accept that? Reborn, she tears the white lotus apart and kicks her back into the muck. Anyone who dares run their mouth gets beaten until they can't stand. Anyone who dares walk all over her and throw their weight around can keep dreaming. … A little scene: “Yijin, you don't think I only want to be your brother, do you?” She tilts her head, puzzled. “Then what do you want to be to Yijin, Brother?” “The man in your bed!” Yijin flatly refuses and bolts. “Yijin, you'll never escape me in this life.”
