In her first life, Qi Yu met countless people. As she died, the person she felt she had wronged most was Fu Juchao.
From the time she could remember, she had worked as her brother's assassin, killing one enemy after another to help him rise to power.
Her final mission was to assassinate Fu Juchao. Her brother promised again and again that he would quit once the job was done.
But after the mission failed, her brother cast her aside like a pawn. Fu Juchao, her enemy, unexpectedly took her in and patiently taught her right from wrong, helping her become a better person.
Up to this point, it could just about be called a story of "turning from evil to good."
But in her youth, Qi Yu didn't know any better and never felt grateful.
Fu Juchao took power at a young age and had countless enemies. Naturally, they brought him down. Qi Yu did nothing to save him, watching helplessly as he died a horrific death.
When she woke up, Qi Yu had returned to the day she was supposed to assassinate Fu Juchao.
She thought, this time, she would make sure he lived a long, long life.

Fu Juchao was the most distinguished young nobleman in Dongdu, born to a prestigious family, but sadly, fate was not kind to him.
His mother died when he was young. After he grew up, his father died in the line of duty, forcing him to shoulder the responsibility and succeed him as commander. His career seemed smooth on the surface, but was full of hidden dangers.
The future great demon king, whose name would strike fear across the globe, was currently weak, pitiful, and helpless.
For Qi Yu to keep him safe, she had to eliminate every unstable factor.
First, earn Fu Juchao's trust. Then, root out the traitors within. Finally, encourage him to consolidate his power and destroy his enemies.
Thanks to Qi Yu's tireless efforts, Fu Juchao did indeed avoid danger and eventually take all the power into his own hands.
But she herself fell into a trap.
Fu Juchao: "A Yu has been so good to me. How should I repay her?"
Qi Yu: "?"
Fu Juchao: "How about I give myself to you, starting tomorrow?"
Qi Yu: "???"
