Luo J inran was once the darling of the heavens, until she uncovered the filthy secret between her fiance, Ye Pujue, and her illegitimate younger sister on the night of their engagement. Beneath the bloody moonlight, she was injected with a hallucinogen and thrown into a city of outlaws. But no one knew that inside the body of this gilded canary, raised in captivity by her family, lay the awakened bones of a phoenix.
Everyone says Gu Hansheng, the head of the Gu family, is a vicious wolf raised by Wall Street. But no one knows that, hidden in the deepest corner of his study, there is a yellowed photograph: eighteen-year-old Luo Jinran in a racing suit, leaning against a Koenigsegg, an acceptance letter to Princeton's Young Scholars Program clutched in her hand.
As she tears open the curtain on her revenge with thunderous force, the mysterious mastermind behind a top auction house is her, the "Ghost Dancer," at the top of the darknet's bounty list, is her, and the new underground ruler of the city of outlaws is her!
Gu Hansheng pins her against the blast-resistant glass of the particle collider lab, his breath scorching the phoenix tattoo behind her ear. "Miss Luo, care to make a bet? Those secret identities of yours..." His long fingers undo his tie and bind her wrists. "Will they be enough to buy a century-old family legacy from the Gu family as your betrothal gift?"
#She returns from the flames, making every move a calculated step. He plays the black pieces and overturns the board for her.#
#Through all those years you transmigrated alone across the galaxy, I had already forged my love into the paths of the stars.#
