Overworked office drone Shen Tang died suddenly after pulling an all-nighter at work. When she woke up, she had become the daughter of a low-ranking official in ancient times.
She thought she would have no choice but to lie flat and muddle through this life, but then she was bound to the Scumbag Comeuppance System. A huge screen appeared in the sky, forcing the people of the entire city to watch as the dark histories of the powerful were exposed.
The first to be livestreamed was the Crown Prince: once a down-and-out scholar, he had relied on his wife selling her jewelry to secure his future. After ascending the throne, he had her poisoned for “treason and colluding with the enemy.” The people's fury skyrocketed, and heavenly lightning struck him on the spot.
The second was a general. Beneath his devoted and faithful public image lay the truth of a body-double romance and a massacre that wiped out an entire family.
The third was the Grand Chancellor: he killed his wife to prove his Dao, a beast dressed in fine clothes.
Shen Tang hid in the crowd, occasionally saying a few things to “guide public opinion.” As she watched her enemies one by one suffer public disgrace, fall from power, and face heavenly retribution, she found life far more exciting than it had been as an office drone.
Until the screen announced its next subject: the mysterious regent who had secretly protected her all along.
The grudges of her previous life came to light, and the System forced her to make a final choice: complete the mission and return to the modern world, or stay for him?
This is not just a straightforward revenge fantasy. It's the story of a girl battered by life who finds inner peace between “letting go” and “forgiving.”
When watching the drama becomes part of everyday life and the Heavenly Dao steps in to enforce justice itself, see how the heroine can watch the show while rewriting her own life.
