In her past life, she died at the hands of someone she trusted.
In this life, she will make every traitor kneel and pay.
Shen Jinghong, eldest legitimate daughter of the General of the Nation’s estate, had her family fortune stolen by her second uncle in her previous life. Her cousin disfigured her and stole her marriage, while her fiancé, Xiao Jingxing, personally sent her to the execution ground. Only as she lay dying did she learn that behind every tragedy stood the powerful Empress Dowager Xiao.
And Gu Yehan, the boy she had forgotten in a corner, spent three years killing all her enemies. Then, holding her gravestone, he smiled and took his own life.
When she opened her eyes again, she was twelve.
There was still time.
She reclaimed the secret guard force her mother had left behind, started with a cosmetics shop, and rebuilt a business empire;
She plotted in secret, advancing step by step as her former enemies suffered the consequences of their own actions;
She found the battered boy and took his hand. “This time, let me protect you.”
But she did not know...
He remembered his past life, too.
From the very first day of his rebirth, he had been waiting for her.
Two formidable allies join forces to turn the tides.
Commerce as their blade, power as their shield.
Once a lonely daughter of a general’s house, now a woman of peerless grace.
As the truth came to light, layer by layer, and all her enemies knelt at her feet, she finally turned to look at the boy who had always stood behind her.
He smiled, tears at the corners of his eyes. “In my last life, you gave me a piece of pastry. In this life, I’ll repay you with a path forward, even if it costs me my life. It was worth it.”
This is a story of rebirth, revenge, protection, and redemption.
Heartbreak and sweetness intertwine, with thrills coming one after another. A devoted one-on-one romance, childhood sweethearts, and two people choosing each other.
