Angst! Angst! And more angst!! (Don't flame me for it. I already told you this story is full of angst.)
Shen Zhao, the legitimate daughter of the military Shen family, awakened memories of her past life at the age of thirteen.
In her previous life, she was an orphan named A Jiu, born male. Exceptionally talented in a wide range of disciplines, he nevertheless lived a lonely life, with no wife or children. As the memories flooded back, she thought of herself as a transmigrator who had taken over someone else's life. She kept her distance from the parents and siblings of this life, only willing to help them when necessary.
Only when Grand Tutor Liang Heng framed the Shen family for treason and had the entire clan executed did she, after her memories had fully merged,
realize that the family she had treated with such indifference were her own flesh and blood.
She hated her own cold-heartedness, and hated others' cruelty even more. Drawing on all she had learned in her previous life, she embarked on a long road of revenge. On the day she finally avenged her family, she returned to their graves, drew her blade, and took her own life, whispering:
"A Luan has come home."
