[Brilliant strategist, reborn goddess] x [Fake playboy, genuinely inscrutable heir]
In her previous life, Mu Xin suffered a terrible betrayal, but was fortunate enough to live again. Bent on revenge, she met the playboy heir He Shiwei. He repeatedly sought her out to propose an alliance, and Mu Xin agreed, intending to use him.
She never expected him to turn around and sell her out!
She had always been one to repay every slight, so she immediately set a trap and turned the tables, making him taste the bitterness of betrayal for himself.
Along the way, she uncovered a gold mine and built her first business. She established the Pavilion of Fair Ladies, turning it into a blade for her revenge.
Once Mu Xin had settled every score in the world, she followed her father west to the deserts of Hexi. But in the endless sands, she unexpectedly crossed paths with He Shiwei once more, and old grudges and new feelings became entangled again. This time, however, the family he had fought with all his might to protect was still torn away from her...
These deserts concealed her long-buried past as a goddess, and all her lost memories of reincarnation returned. Knowing her fate, she remained trapped by the obsessions of love and hate, unable to reconcile herself with the past.
When her worldly ties were finally settled, she was unwilling to enter the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn, and she would not borrow a mortal body to live through another lifetime of sorrow and joy. In the end, she let go of every grudge and attachment, shed her human form, and became an ever-burning candle before the Buddha's hall. Year after year, its red flame flickered as she watched the world's meetings and partings with cool detachment.
As she became a candle, he stood alone before the Buddha, gazing at the wavering red flame and murmuring softly:
“Mu Xin, we've met again.”
