[Arrogant, possessive young master from a top-tier aristocratic family VS a beautiful, dark-hearted swan who has endured for years solely to take revenge]
[Love seized by force + long-held secret love + unhinged personalities]
Everyone in Shangjing knew Jiang Shili was a mangy dog kept by the Lin family. She never fought back or talked back, and they could humiliate her however they pleased. They never treated her like a person, using her like a slave.
Her boyfriend, Gu Zeyu, was just as bad. He passionately kissed her younger sister right in front of her, clinging to her as if they couldn't bear to part. It humiliated her, yet she swallowed her anger and said nothing. Everyone looked down on her even more, thinking she was cheap, spineless, and useless.
But later, she personally destroyed the Lin family, leaving them ruined. Zhou Yanqi, heir to one of Shangjing's top aristocratic families, stood faithfully by her, cherishing her as if she were a treasure.

Jiang Shili had known since childhood that the Lin family, who had adopted her, were her enemies. But she was powerless and too weak, so she endured and waited for a chance to take revenge. She buried her hatred deep inside, disguising herself as a useless nobody as she slowly made her way toward vengeance.
She had no idea why Zhou Yanqi had set his sights on her. Step by step, he tore away her disguise and ripped off her mask, exposing the dark, twisted desire for revenge beneath.
Furious and humiliated, she wanted to kill him with her own hands.
To her surprise, he offered her the knife himself. His eyes blazed with a frenzied possessiveness as he flashed a roguish smile. “If you can't kill me, then you'll belong to me for the rest of your life. I won't let you go. In this life and every life after, you'll be entwined with me, never to part.”
What kind of bad ending is this?
