Synopsis

[Fake and real heiresses, everyone speaks their mind, no romance for the female lead, revenge taken on the spot, a sharp tongue, incredibly powerful]

(This story pairs the female lead’s parents together in a middle-aged romance. The writing isn’t great, so proceed with caution if that bothers you.)

The youngest daughter of the Qin family, Qin Muge, went missing at the age of four, plunging the entire family into endless grief and gloom.

Then, one day, everyone in the Qin family received a mysterious text announcing Qin Muge’s return.

Mu Qingrui was forced to return to the country to become the captain of a special forces brigade. Her mentor had arranged all of this so she could reunite with her real family, the Qin family.

At first, Mu Qingrui was skeptical of this sudden familial affection and even resented the adopted daughter living in the household. But at her mentor’s insistence, she reluctantly returned to the Qin family.

The adopted daughter repeatedly plotted to frame Mu Qingrui, but nothing could faze her. In the end, the adopted daughter brought ruin upon herself and was kicked out of the house.

The Qin family’s deep affection gradually melted the frost in Mu Qingrui’s heart, and she began to accept this long-delayed family bond.

When the Qin family learned about everything Mu Qingrui had been through, they thought she was weak, pitiful, and helpless.

But as they spent more time with her, they were astonished to discover that she was no helpless little victim. She was practically a goddess!

Being a full colonel was only the tip of the iceberg. She graduated from the world’s top university at twelve with the highest degree in every subject, earned three first-class merits at fourteen, and was the queen of the world’s mercenaries, a hacker, a sharpshooter, a gambling king... Mu Qingrui had countless other identities.
