[Business Queen + Fake Heiress’s Comeback + Everyone Gets Their Comeuppance]
[Historical Romance + Entire Story Told from the Female Supporting Character’s Perspective]
The night Shen Qingci died in a mass grave, wild dogs tore at her leg. The five men she had once loved were celebrating with her true-heiress sister.
They said she was a stain on the Marquis’s household, vain and ungrateful, and that she deserved to die.
When she opened her eyes again, she was back on the eve of being driven out of the Marquis’s residence.
In her previous life, she had knelt and begged her father not to throw her out. In return, he gave her a document severing their ties.
This time, she smiled at herself in the mirror, packed her things, and took the deeds to the Marquis’s properties along with them.
A voice in her mind told her to follow the plot and curry favor with the true heiress. Maybe she would survive.
Shen Qingci shut the voice off.
Curry favor?
She’d spent her whole previous life doing that, only to end up as dog food.
This time, she would make every man who groveled at the true heiress’s feet beg her for a bowl of rice.
A villainess reborn: this isn’t a hellish start, it’s a mouse falling into a rice jar.
Fake heiress reborn + business queen + overwhelming advantage + men fighting over her + everyone gets their comeuppance. The heroine isn’t love-struck: making money comes first, while the men line up begging to be kept. This isn’t a household-intrigue story. It’s a historical version of a domineering female CEO and her useless men.
