[A mad beauty is reborn and takes on her whole family vs. a tragic, powerful tycoon + marriage first, love later + retired Beijing military officer + mutual salvation + Sichuan-Chongqing sisterhood + intangible cultural heritage business warfare + satisfying period revenge + ensemble cast of women awakening]
In her previous life, Zhao Yutang, eldest daughter of a Sichuan brocade family in Sichuan City, was tortured for ten years in a psychiatric hospital before dying a miserable death.
For 37 years, her soul drifted through the world. She watched her mother's ancestral estate get swallowed up and her enemies prosper.
She hated them! Her hatred knew no bounds!
When she opened her eyes again, she was back in 1988, at a funeral hall, with a cup of poisoned tea being brought to her lips.
“Hahaha...”
Zhao Yutang laughed, laughing like a madwoman!
Fine! They all said she was crazy? Then she'd show them just how crazy she could be!
In three days of funeral rites, she emptied the Zhao family home. In one night, she returned from hell drenched in blood.
Her great-aunt claimed to be a devout vegetarian who spent her days praying to Buddha? Zhao Yutang tore away her “Bodhisattva mask” with her own hands and dragged her into hell.
Her father wanted to seize the family fortune? She turned the tables and sent him to prison, where he begged for mercy on his knees.
From then on, she killed gods and Buddhas alike, going completely mad and turning her back on everyone!
Everyone said:
“The eldest Zhao daughter really has gone insane!”
But she thrived, and along the way, rescued the group of sisters from the psychiatric hospital who had died tragic deaths in her previous life. Together, they formed the “Mad Alliance” and unleashed a bloody storm in the business world of the 1990s.
On her path to revenge, she crossed paths with the man who should have been a “stranger.”
This time, she sought him out herself.
“Lu Qichuan, want to work together?”
Later, Beijing's elite were left aghast.
That mad beauty in a qipao wielded Sichuan brocade like a sword and slaughtered her enemies, yet showed her soft neck only to Lu Qichuan.
He gripped her waist and kissed away the blood at the corner of her lips.
“Zhao Yutang, you hand me the knife when it's time to kill and pour oil on the fire when it's time to burn!”
“This time, I'll go mad with you to the very end.”
