Power in Ashes: The Ruthless Heiress Rules the Business World

Shen Jinmian is known throughout Haicheng's wealthy circles as the “villainess.”

Five years ago, she was accused of leaking secrets. Overnight, she went from the true daughter of the Shen family to a family traitor, forced into exile overseas.

Five years later, she returns, fierce and unyielding. She's not here to atone, but to collect her debts, seize power, and crush everyone who ever humiliated her beneath her feet.

Her second uncle is devouring the family business, her hypocritical cousin has usurped her place, the wealthy circles look on coldly, and Yun Que Elite Academy has set a deadly trap to make her look foolish.

With a usurper inside the family and powerful investors closing in from outside, she enters the fray alone, planning every move.

To the outside world, she is a ruthless villainess who acts without mercy and never lets an insult go unanswered;

But with her own people, she is fiercely loyal and deeply devoted. She protects the family business and trusts those closest to her. She is no heartless monster.

At school, she wins people over, builds her own following, and tears down every injustice and act of bullying;

In the business world, she matches wits with her rivals with thunderous force, tears apart their plots, and takes back her business empire.

He is Xie Wenxing, a top power broker working behind the scenes. He never steals the spotlight from her, never clings or pesters her, and never tries to upstage her.

When she charges ahead, he has her back; when she faces a dead end, he offers the move that breaks the stalemate. He is the perfect partner for an equally matched powerhouse.

Their journey is full of plots and twists.

She may wear the face of a villainess, but she stands for justice; though a woman, she commands the world.

In the end, she reigns supreme among the wealthy, takes the business world by storm, and has her beloved by her side and her trusted allies at her back, building a life no one would dare threaten.

A villainess in name, a goddess of power in truth.
