After the Real Heiress Cut the Life-Stealing Thread, the Entire Family Fell into Chaos

On Jiang Wanning’s eighteenth birthday, her family forces her to tie a red string on the fake heiress, Jiang Yunzhi, to pray for her good fortune. They say Jiang Yunzhi is in poor health, so their biological daughter should give way. But only then does Jiang Wanning learn that Jiang Yunzhi has never been frail. Every year, she has been borrowing Jiang Wanning’s lifespan. For every year Jiang Yunzhi lives, Jiang Wanning loses one. Her biological parents tie the string for Jiang Yunzhi, her brother alters her medical records, and her fiancé bears false witness. Everyone says Jiang Wanning is making a fuss over nothing. Jiang Wanning cuts the red string on the spot and signs an agreement severing ties with her family. From that day on, Jiang Yunzhi rapidly withers, and one disaster after another strikes the Jiang family’s projects. Her biased relatives finally realize that the person they drove away wasn’t a burden, but the only one who could save the whole family. Later, they kneel and beg her to come back. Jiang Wanning looks at the red string burned to ashes and smiles. “Give me back my years. Keep your apology. I won’t acknowledge you as family.”
