[Reborn Black Lotus] [Self-Serving and Protective] [Punish the Scum] [Coercive Possession] [Scumbag]
Loving a man gets you flayed alive. Playing men gets you the position of empress.
Reborn, Jiang Liyi knows exactly which one to choose.
In her past life, she was infatuated with Yuan Linzhao and used a cup of drugged wine to make herself the young mistress of the Yuan family.
She paid for it after marriage.
Left alone in an empty room, stripped of her dowry, and forced to watch her maid get killed, she was locked in the Yuan family's back courtyard, where rats and insects gnawed at her. She lived like something less than human.
Yuan Linzhao took her dowry and spent ten years pursuing Su Yanshuang, treating Jiang Liyi like dirt.
Then, after the Jiang family fell and her elder and younger brothers died one after another, he tossed her a divorce letter and ordered her to make way for Su Yanshuang.
Heartbroken, she sent the wretched couple to their deaths with a pot of poisoned wine, only to suffer death by a thousand cuts herself.
As she lay dying in agony, she learned she was living inside a story, cast as the vicious female supporting character.
She was merely a stepping stone on the heroine Su Yanshuang's path to success.
How ridiculous.
When Jiang Liyi opened her eyes again, she looked at the wretched couple pledging eternal love, glanced at the spiked wine, and turned away.
This time, she would make Su Yanshuang and Yuan Linzhao pay for their blood debts.
But first, she needed an ally.
For now, her household's "Third Brother" had yet to reveal his true identity. He was merely a long-suffering illegitimate son, known as Jiang Jin...
A villain and a vicious female supporting character: just the pair to take on the heroine and her devoted lackey.
--
When Yuan Linzhao regained his memories, he intended to rekindle his old relationship with Su Yanshuang, only to discover that Jiang Liyi, who had once loved him to the death, had changed completely.
He watched coldly, certain the woman was playing hard to get again. He never expected that, after waiting and waiting, he would receive neither gifts nor attention, but instead face the dark and ruthless retaliation of another man.
