Lin Wantang lived for forty-three years, and suffered for all forty-three of them.
Her younger sister drugged her before the college entrance exam, her stepmother hid her admission letter, her sister took her job, and her sister seduced her man. In the end, she was falsely accused of adultery and froze to death under a bridge.
Only as she lay dying did she learn that she was living in a period novel, as the female lead's foil.
When she opened her eyes again, she was eighteen.
Her younger sister came over with a bowl of mung bean soup and a sweet smile. “It's hot, Sis. Have a bowl to cool off.”
Lin Wantang smiled, took the bowl, then turned and splashed it in her stepmother's face.
“Whoever wants this soup can drink it.”
In this life, she wouldn't be playing a supporting role.
Her sister's sweet, tearful act? She'd tear it apart herself.
Her stepmother's mask of a virtuous wife and loving mother? She'd smash it herself.
The powerful-family fiancé who was supposed to belong to her sister? She stole him first.
The 1980s foil is ready to fight back.
