Back at the Duke’s Estate, I’m the One in Charge

[Strong Female Lead Revenge Story + Secret Identity + High IQ + Career First, Romance Second]

When Wen Youyun was five, her parents were murdered in a plot. Her uncle and grandmother joined forces to send her and her sister to a country estate, then seized everything belonging to the Duke of Rong’s household.

Now back at the duke’s residence, Wen Youyun swore to reclaim everything that was hers.

She would avenge her parents, and she would show no mercy to her uncle’s family.

Her goal was clear: a life for a life, a debt repaid, and anyone who stood in her way would be killed, be they mortal or god.

But as she pursued her revenge, she caught the attention of the regent, a man renowned for his brutality.

How could she be a delicate little flower by day, yet a ruthless killer by night?

Watching her stand in a pool of blood, the regent was bewildered. Which of them was truly the cruel and ruthless one?

Before he could figure it out, a petite figure crashed into his arms.

“Your Highness, I’m so scared...”

Well, it wasn’t her fault. Those people had attacked her, and she’d only acted in self-defense. The regent reassured himself.

Little did he know that her eyes were full of scorn. Love? What was that? Only strength was truly supreme.
