In her previous life, Su Wanting was praised by everyone as a gentle, refined legitimate daughter.
Obedient and sensible, she followed every rule, treated her stepmother kindly, doted on her younger half-sister, and gave her heart to the crown prince. In return, her dowry was stolen, her reputation ruined, her betrothal cast aside, and her name dragged through the mud. At last, her younger half-sister, whom she had raised herself, and the stepmother she trusted most conspired to frame her, drowning her alive in a pond. She died with hatred in her heart.
Only in the final moments, as the icy water swallowed her consciousness, did she see through everyone's hypocritical facade.
Reborn, she returns to the freezing night when she was fifteen and forced to kneel in the ancestral hall.
Back with a record of her previous life etched into her memory, she can see every secret scheme, every dirty trick, and every truth not yet exposed!
Her fake-sweet younger half-sister wants to steal her talents, take her betrothal, and ruin her life?
She exposes her in front of everyone, leaving her disgraced and made to suffer the consequences!
Her vicious stepmother wants to seize her mother's estate, control her life, and spoil her half-sister rotten?
She counters at every turn, tears off her stepmother's mask, reclaims her dowry and power, and takes charge of the marquis's household!
The scumbag crown prince thinks he can look down on her, discard her at will, and choose a better bride?
She strikes first, reveals his scandalous secrets, and personally shatters his dream of becoming emperor!
Everyone thinks she is still the same gentle, meek girl, easy to bully and manipulate.
But they don't know that the gentle legitimate daughter of the past is long dead.
The Su Wanting who lives now is sweet on the outside, calculating within, a born actress who never lets an insult go unanswered.
