Synopsis:
Good news: I've been reborn as the daughter of the richest man in Jiangnan, with more money than I could ever spend.
Bad news: A countdown hangs over my head. In five years, my entire family will be executed.
To save herself, Shen Linlang is forced to make a habit of recklessly squandering money and making enemies.
Scene one:
She smashes an imperial jade Buddha in front of everyone and curses it for being ugly.
She expects her father to break her legs.
Instead, he declares that smashing it was the right thing to do, and the people of the entire city feast for three days straight.
Everyone: "..."
Scene two:
She spends a fortune on a barren mountain, claiming she only wants to see the plum blossoms.
She expects to be condemned as a spendthrift.
Instead, they discover a rich mineral vein in the mountain, multiplying her fortune tenfold.
Her refined fiancé: "Wait, how does she get to do that?!"
Scene three:
She forcibly brings a cool, aloof scholar into her household and humiliates him at every turn.
She expects to drive him to suicide so he can preserve his honor.
Instead, the scholar turns dark and becomes a devoted, clingy loyalist who gets jealous every day.
From then on, lofty ideals and noble principles are out of his life.
Shen Linlang sneers: "If this world won't let me live in peace, then let's all go bankrupt together!"
