In her previous life, Lu Xiwu lived in Majia Village with Shen Yanqing. They weren't childhood sweethearts, but their parents arranged their marriage when they were sixteen.
After they married, Lu Xiwu treated Shen Yanqing terribly. She forbade him from studying, forced him to do hard labor in the city, and even spent the money he earned on other men! She abused and humiliated him at will!
The eight most powerful families in the Jing Kingdom included the Cui and Shen families. The youngest daughter of the Cui family's main line and the eldest son of the Shen family's main line had both been stolen away as children, an unspeakable source of pain for their families.
After Lu Xiwu had tormented Shen Yanqing for two years, he suddenly transformed into the long-lost eldest son of the Shen family. From then on, he rose to prominence in the capital and basked in admiration, becoming someone Lu Xiwu could only look up to.
And because of how she had treated him, Shen Yanqing took revenge on Lu Xiwu. She was exiled to the Southern Islands, where she died miserably.
*
When Lu Xiwu opened her eyes again, she had returned to three months before Shen Yanqing was found by the Shen family.
What should she do? Admit her mistakes and win him over now?
Lu Xiwu felt that after bullying Shen Yanqing for two years, even if she gave him half her life over these three months, he wouldn't soften toward her.
In that case, she had no choice but to find another way.
The eldest son of the Shen family was certainly precious, but the youngest daughter of the Cui family was also cherished by the entire family.
She would become the Cui family's lost pearl, get everything she wanted, and sever ties with the past she hated.
Reader's note: The male lead is not Shen Yanqing. The two are true enemies. This is the story of a scheming woman who refuses to accept her lot and becomes happier the more she stirs up trouble. Readers with high moral standards for the heroine, stay away!
