Oh No! I Fell for You Before You Fell for Me

At ten, Yi Wanwan lost her father in a car accident and depended on her mother, a fashion designer, for everything.

At twelve, her mother remarried Yu Nan, marking the beginning of her descent into the abyss.

Her stepfather, Yu Nan, was a devil who pretended to be virtuous in public. When the Yu Group teetered on the brink of collapse, he used her mother's beauty and talent as bargaining chips, sending her to the beds of the powerful in exchange for a lifeline. When her mother resisted, he threatened her with Yi Wanwan, eventually driving her mad.

Any time Yi Wanwan showed the slightest defiance, she was beaten, made to kneel, or locked away. Hunger became a fact of life. Each of her attempts to escape brought even crueler torment. To protect her mother and avenge her, she put on a docile mask, playing the "good girl" in Yu Nan's eyes while secretly setting a trap to play the long game and catch the big fish.

At a wedding, she happened to save Xiao Yuan, the legendary chairman of the Fu Group, but an unexpected entanglement unfolded in his car.

From then on, she carefully plotted each move, drawing him in with calculated advances. She intended to use his power to bring down the Yu family, stir up the wealthy elite, and redeem herself and her mother.

But amid all her scheming, her heart slipped beyond her control. To stand by his side, she entered the world of jewelry design, breaking through class barriers with her dazzling talent and earning the right to be his equal through her own efforts.

Once her disguise falls away, can she break free of her stepfather's grip amid this tangle of love and hate? Can a relationship that began as a scheme ultimately give her both dazzling fame and fortune and an unexpected, genuine love at the end of her revenge?
