In her previous life, Shen Weiwan was the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, a woman who gave her whole heart only to see the entire Shen family sentenced to death. Her half-sister and the scumbag she loved joined forces to push her into a raging fire, where she burned to death.
Reborn on the eve of her coming-of-age ceremony, she bound herself to a Power and Favor Reversal System.
The System gave her everything: medical and poison-making skills, political cunning, insight into people's character, and immense power!
This time, she tore apart her scheming half-sister, kicked her faithless scumbag to the curb, and stirred up the imperial court. She vowed to protect her family and rise to the very top.
She meant to focus solely on her ambitions, but accidentally caught the attention of the regent, a cold-blooded man with power over the entire court.
He was ruthless toward everyone else, but obsessively devoted to her, protecting her without question. "Lay a finger on anyone who belongs to me, and I'll exterminate your entire clan."
She had someone powerful backing her as she crushed her enemies and someone to cover her back as she seized power. The scumbag who once treated her like dirt was now filled with regret.
Shen Weiwan smiled faintly. "Sorry, I'm already the apple of the Regent's eye. You're out of your league."
