Shen Yuqing, born under the fate of a lone star, has always believed that people make their own destiny: be polite first, then fight back, and if someone won't listen, keep arguing until they do. If that doesn't work, just beat them into submission.
One day, she transmigrates into the body of another Shen Yuqing, a meek pushover who silently tortures herself over her family's mistreatment. Really, girl, you grew up with a father who didn't care about you and a mother who didn't love you, so how did you end up letting everyone walk all over you? Could it be that we just can't afford to be weak?
Shen Yuqing doesn't get it. She truly doesn't. How can anyone be such a doormat?
To her hypocritical eldest brother, who always handles things smoothly: "All you have is your position as heir. Easy for you to say when you're not the one suffering."
To her hot-tempered second brother, who is always at odds with her and can't stand the sight of her: "Every step I take on my own path matters!"
To her third brother, who confronts her the moment they meet, only to end up on his knees before he knows it: "We just met. You really don't have to be so polite."
To her youngest brother, who blames her for making everyone unhappy just by showing up, she immediately fires back: "Who gave you the right to talk to me like that? I may be starved for love, but I'm not some pathetic pushover."
To the timid little sweetheart, Shen Yuqing crouches down to meet his eyes. "A Yan, life is a long road. There's no need to rush. What's wrong with taking it a little slower? The slower you go, the steadier your steps will be. The road ahead may still be long, but we have all the time in the world."
