In this life, she directly turns evil: forming a "cannon fodder alliance," tearing up the script, kicking the male lead, and everyone going crazy creating fantastic plot twists! At the banquet, she smiles radiantly: "I'm not familiar with the young masters of the Shen family." But that night, she's pinned down in the shadows: "Not familiar?
