Blurb:
In her previous life, Ruan Zhao had been spoiled and domineering for sixteen years. Then she met Xie Xiuhuai and seemed to have been put under a spell, spending money and effort on him and even willing to give up her life for him.
Everyone in the capital mocked her for wishful thinking. Xie Xiuhuai loved her stepsister, Ruan Qingyi, but as long as Xie Xiuhuai said otherwise, she trusted him without question.
Only after Ruan Zhao lost everything and, on the verge of death, saw Xie Xiuhuai marry Ruan Qingyi with her own eyes did she finally wake up. She was merely a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a story, while Ruan Qingyi was the heroine.
When Ruan Zhao opened her eyes again, she had been reborn.
In this life, she kicked her scumbag ex to the curb and tore into the green tea schemer. She would take revenge on everyone and everything that displeased her.
Especially that Xie Jinyuan. In the story, he was the unattainable dream man the heroine could never have, the older brother Xie Xiuhuai respected most, and the aloof, ascetic beauty everyone admired.
Ruan Zhao was determined to break that flower.
She spent a fortune buying a love poison from Miaojiang and tricked Xie Jinyuan into drinking it. Then she humiliated him with her body.
"You worked so hard to build those pecs. Weren't they made for me to touch?"
"Why are you looking at me like that? You're enjoying this too, aren't you?"
"Useless. Is that all you've got?"
Xie Jinyuan's expression, which had never changed before, finally shifted. The corners of his eyes reddened and his lips pressed into a thin line. He must have been suffering terribly from the humiliation.
Ruan Zhao was very pleased. She patted the man's face. "This poison needs to be counteracted every ten days. If you don't want to die, remember to kneel down and satisfy me."
Xie Jinyuan had no choice but to obey. Whenever the love poison took effect, he knelt before her and parted his famously terse lips to pleasure her.
When he helped her counteract the poison, his movements grew rougher each time, as if he were on the verge of losing control.
Then Ruan Zhao happened to learn that the person who sold her the love poison had passed off an inferior product. The poison she had given Xie Jinyuan had already stopped working after its first activation.
That night, Ruan Zhao didn't let the man into her room.
Xie Jinyuan's voice came from outside the door, so calm he sounded like a demon from hell murmuring, "Zhaozhao, did I not kneel well enough?"
