She was the legitimate daughter of a military family, the future Crown Princess, and a contender for the title of palace-intrigue champion. Yet on the eve of her wedding, her scheming half-sister and the scumbag Crown Prince conspired to frame her. One cup of poisoned wine ended her life.
When she opened her eyes again, she had become Su Nian, a modern office worker everyone could walk all over! Her colleagues ostracized her, her boss made things difficult, and her deadbeat boyfriend was emotionally manipulating her? Shen Qingli smiled. “You dare try those tricks on me? I've seen them all before.”
An office schemer throws coffee at her? She throws a cup right back, with a palace-grade package of humiliation included.
Her deadbeat ex begs her to take him back in public? One recording leaves him disgraced on the spot, while her classical Chinese insults make him question his existence.
Everyone waits for her to make a fool of herself, but she uses palace-intrigue-level cunning and a photographic memory to make a stunning debut at work. To her surprise, even the all-powerful chairman of a major corporation takes a special interest in her.
Gu Yanchen, the king of Shengshi Group, is cold, aloof, and never gets involved with women. Yet he alone pursues her at every turn, showering her with unparalleled affection. “Su Nian, how many more surprises are there that I don't know about?”
Just as Shen Qingli thinks she's finally thriving in the modern world, at a business gala she comes face-to-face with a socialite who looks exactly like her half-sister from her previous life. With her arm linked through that of a rival chairman, the woman smiles sweetly at her. “Sister, long time no see.”
The blood feud from her previous life has followed them into this one!
This time, she will be no one's pawn. She'll take back everything with her own hands and crush her enemies beneath her feet. And while she's at it, she'll turn that top tycoon into her very own devoted puppy!
