A year later, she went to university in the city. At the opening ceremony, Ye Man saw Yi Yan standing on the podium, looking at her with a half-smile. Yi Yan easily kept Ye Man by his side with some tricks. Ye Man was world-weary, aloof, and always wanted to die, but Yi Yan always misunderstood her as some kind of resilient, innocent country girl. The first time she smiled was in bed, and the rich young man was so angry at her cold reaction that he went berserk. Yi Yan pinched her chin, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light: "Aren't you going to talk?" Ye Man looked at him with murderous intent, then met his gaze expectantly and asked, "Are you going to kill me?" Yi Yan gritted his teeth in anger and whispered in her ear, "Fine, I'll kill you here, does that count?"

   Reader note

   I recommend this book. In her past life, the female protagonist suffered from severe emotional bipolar disorder due to family reasons, the love-hate relationships of her parents' generation, and the original plot's tragic ending. Having no attachment to the world, she chose euthanasia. The male protagonist performed many good deeds and secured a second chance at life for them. In this life, the female protagonist knows the plot in advance but still lacks the motivation to live, only wanting revenge on those who hurt her. She stabs the plot's male protagonist twice, an event that alters the original plot, entangleing her with him again. The female protagonist's biological father is a very powerful high-ranking official (like a second or third-ranking official in the government). Her true identity is that of a prince, but due to her love-hate relationship with her mother and the pressures of the time, she was raised by her scumbag father (not her biological father). The emotional neglect she experienced from a young age, coupled with the devastating truth at the end, led to her destruction in her first life, just as the plot had predicted. Reborn... After surviving, she first learned from the original female lead that this was a story world, and then started the "creating death for everyone" mode. She and the male lead were former husband and wife. In the previous life, they didn't know about this part of the story, so they had little contact after their divorce. In this life, because the female lead stabbed the second male lead, the male lead was notified, and he immediately returned to the country to take over all of the female lead's affairs. The male lead had always liked the female lead, but he was older than her, and she didn't like him much and avoided him. So their marriage only lasted two years (their marriage was arranged by the female lead's biological father). In the previous life, the male lead chose to let go and let the female lead pursue what she wanted. In this life, after seeing the female lead's lifeless and world-weary state, he couldn't let go. So the two of them, one causing trouble and tormenting everyone, and the other cleaning up the mess behind the scenes, the male lead raised the female lead all over again, using patience, gentleness and love to make her have a longing for the world. To be honest, what touched me most about this novel wasn't the romance between the male and female leads, but rather the conflict between children and parents. The female lead's biological parents both wanted what was best for her, but they became the last straw that broke her back. As the female lead herself mocked, she had a scumbag father, a biological father, and a godfather. She should have had a happy life, but her biological father's arrogance turned everything into a mess. He was like a mass-produced father who could call anyone "dear," providing material things but not love. Like a plant that only gets watered but not given sunlight, it eventually rots at the roots and dies. Then there's the female lead's mother, whom I can only describe as a pitiful character. First, she was sent to infiltrate her biological father's family as an undercover agent, only to be caught in a honey trap. After the scheme failed, her father harbored deep resentment towards her, yet stubbornly refused to let go. The female lead's mother wanted to escape, but she didn't have deep love for her father (I think this is a good setup; no matter the circumstances, a woman shouldn't lose her sense of self-worth). She was then forcibly taken by her father, imprisoned, and forced to have the female lead (the novel explains the reason for the imprisonment; one aspect was to protect her from retaliation against her mother). The female lead is the rope that her father uses to tie her mother down. I have to say, the female lead's father is really despicable. But the female lead's mother hates her father, and by extension, she hates the female lead as well, and is indifferent to her. Actually, she doesn't really hate the female lead, she just hates her father. What the mother always wanted was freedom. She did love the female lead, but she suffered from postpartum depression and couldn't control her emotions, so she was pitiful. Later, the female lead's grandfather always looked down on the female lead's mother, and when the female lead's father wasn't paying attention, he let her go. The female lead was also forced to be given to her scumbag father to raise. This is the grudges and grievances of the previous generation. The novel's depiction of the female protagonist's daily bickering and magical battles with her biological father is quite amusing. Her mother later returns to China, still harboring feelings for the female protagonist. Another great point is that the female protagonist never completely forgives her biological father, even at the end. He still wants to have a passionate reunion with her mother, but the female protagonist always interrupts him with her magic, and they never end up together. [Laughing and crying emojis] The female protagonist is like that, stepping on everyone's heads, cursing her father when she sees him, cursing her grandfather when she sees him, no matter who comes, she curses them all until she's satisfied, and if they die of anger, she considers it a win.
