Consumed by a sea of flames, leaving not a single bone behind.
Only as she lies dying does Su Wan see how absurd her life has been.
She is the Su family’s real daughter, lost outside the family and finally returned, only to be neglected and treated unfairly by everyone. All eighteen years of affection had gone to Su Rou, the fake daughter who stole her place.
Her gentle, obedient younger sister is a white lotus hiding a knife. Her childhood sweetheart and fiancé, Gu Yanze, is a shameless opportunist. Even her birth parents are biased and foolish, personally pushing her into the abyss.
They drain her of everything she has to offer, take her family’s fortune, then burn her alive, letting Su Rou and Gu Yanze enjoy a bright future.
Carrying a boundless hatred, Su Wan is reborn in a storm of blood, returning to the day her college entrance exams end at eighteen, before any of the tragedies have happened.
In this life, she sheds her former weakness and becomes cold, ruthless, and fierce. Armed with knowledge of business opportunities over the next decade and more, as well as exceptional business talent, she is fair in settling scores and fiercely protective of her own.
The white lotus pretends to suffer to win affection? She tears off her disguise in front of everyone and crushes her at every turn until she’s exposed for who she is!
The opportunistic scumbag wants to use her to climb the social ladder? She decisively breaks off their engagement and cuts off every path forward, ruining his reputation!
Her biased parents try to guilt-trip and exploit her? She clears her head, severs their emotional ties, and draws firm boundaries, refusing to repeat her past mistakes!
The life stolen from her, the fortune taken from her, the dignity denied her: she will take it all back a hundredfold!
With a keen eye for coming trends and a precise strategy, she builds a business empire from scratch, rising from the cast-off daughter everyone looked down on to a legendary powerhouse who commands the highest circles of business.
Everyone thinks she’s a fearless loner with no one to rely on, but Lu Yuchen, head of a top reclusive family, has long since bowed to her and has her back.
In her previous life, he protected her quietly, unknown to anyone. In this one, he openly adores her and supports her every step of the way, all to keep her safe and help her reach the summit.
