The novel version of “The Glory”: bullying, revenge, and a dual personality, with the satisfying thrill of biding your time.
At 28, Lin Wei hides her anti-anxiety medication behind the reference books in the library. She can't remember why she woke shivering from nightmares throughout all three years of high school. Was it the ice in the walk-in freezer seeping into her bones, or someone forcing her to her knees with a utility knife? All she knows is that the reflection in the mirror always wears an air of fear she can't shake.
Then the high school reunion invitation arrives like a bombshell. Jiang Ruoxue, the ringleader who locked her in the freezer, has become a beauty influencer with millions of followers. The rich heir who splashed sulfuric acid on her textbooks has reinvented himself as an investor. Even the “sidekick” who watched as her clothes were ripped off has married into a wealthy family and become a socialite. They joke on social media about being “grateful for the storms of the past,” never realizing that the prey from the abyss has already transformed into two blades.
“My name is Lin Mo.” Eighteen-year-old Lin Mo awakens with ten years of hatred, running her fingertips over the rusty utility knife among her old belongings. “I'll remember what you don't dare to remember. I'll settle the score for every revenge you don't dare take.”
