She has a hundred ways to make someone disappear without a trace.
But on her first day back at the Jiang family home, she chooses to wait tables at a bar.
“The Jiang family’s real heiress? I heard she’s working at a nightclub.”
“Good thing the Qin family broke off the engagement. Who’d want to marry a woman with no class?”
No one knows.
The pen Jiang Ci used to sign the engagement cancellation agreement is worth six figures.
Its custom engraving reads: “Lifetime Chief Consultant to the National Academy of Sciences.”
The day her fiancé brings the fake heiress to break off their engagement, she is just about to say “Fine” when her phone vibrates.
The northwestern laboratory has sent word: someone used an overseas signal relay station to hack into its core database.
The signal’s source bears her father’s name.
“Fine,” she says.
That one word is her answer to the broken engagement.
It’s also her answer to the truth she is about to uncover with her own hands.
She isn’t breaking off an engagement. She’s stripping away the facade the entire Jiang family has put up in front of her.
Later, Lu Yan asks her, “Why did you agree to break off the engagement back then?”
She says, “I happened to be busy that day. I didn’t have time to play along with their act.”
Lu Yan falls silent for a long while, then says:
“So do you have time now?”
Two powerful leads + secret identities exposed + suspense + the man pursuing her. The heroine never cries from beginning to end. She only makes her enemies cry.
