Shen Sangning, a modern-day mystic who could read people and fortunes and had exceptional medical skills, transmigrated into a book. She became the fake heiress and tragic heroine in a story about a false and a true heiress.
After the real heiress was welcomed back by the marquis’s household, she took offense at just one thing the girl said. In response, the heroine’s brothers abandoned her on Yujing Peak, where heavy snow had blocked the mountain roads. The original Shen Sangning had to amputate all four limbs to survive, only to be tossed into a woodshed and abused to death by the real heiress.
Shen Sangning, who had transmigrated into the book, declared, “I’m cutting ties. I won’t forgive them or make peace. I’ll repay every person who bullied her, one by one.”
Everyone in the marquis’s household thought Shen Sangning was throwing a tantrum. They were certain that once she left, she’d have to beg for a living and would eventually come crawling back on her knees.
But after she cut ties with them, why did Shen Sangning keep rising higher and higher?
Eldest brother: Why has my health been so poor lately? Because Shen Sangning stopped sending me medicine.
Second brother: Why is the treasury running low? Because Shen Sangning stopped subsidizing us.
Third brother: Why is the marquis’s household declining? Because Shen Sangning stopped helping us.
Cousin: Why do I keep losing every battle? Because Shen Sangning stopped coming up with strategies for me.
Childhood friend: Why can’t I win first place at poetry gatherings anymore? Because Shen Sangning stopped writing my poems for me.
Her brothers knelt and begged for forgiveness. “Ningning is the only young lady of the marquis’s household. We’re family, bound by blood!”
Shen Sangning: “Move aside. A good dog doesn’t block the road.”
