Blurb: The rise of a devastatingly beautiful empress in the modern world. After dying, the infamous empress who had brought a kingdom to ruin transmigrates into Xiao Da, an overweight heiress who jumped off a building to end her life. She is also bound to a baffling Empress Atonement System. Xiao Da was kidnapped at five or six and only brought back to the Xiao family at sixteen. Her parents never cared for her; all they wanted was the shares Old Master Xiao had left her. The fake heiress who took her place coveted her fiance, Li Minglang, and used every kind of scheme, forcing the original Xiao Da to take her own life. It was bad enough that this infamous empress had ended up in the body of such a miserable person. But who could tell her why the person she had to atone to was her nemesis, Li Minglang, the man who had caused her two agonizing deaths? Heaven might play tricks on people, but this was going too far. I'm done with this! What? If she doesn't do the quests, she'll keep gaining weight until she bursts and dies! Fine! For the sake of getting slim and beautiful, she'll do it! She'll look after Li Minglang and make sure he's comfortable, and he'll lose, lose, lose weight! (The fake heiress of the Xiao family is alarmed: How has that fatso lost weight and gotten prettier?) She'll help Li Minglang climb the career ladder until he achieves fame and success, and he'll lose, lose, lose weight! (Her awful parents are alarmed: How did that idiot get so smart?) She'll help him find a good match, and Li Minglang will be satisfied... Huh? Why have I gained ten pounds? Xiao Da: Damn it, Li Minglang! I found you a gorgeous woman who's as beautiful as a flower, gentle, and considerate. What could you possibly be unhappy about? Li Minglang: You really don't know why? Xiao Da kicks him. Get lost! I died because of you. I'm not jumping into that fire pit again!
P.S. The heroine was no saint in either her past or present life. She's just a scheming black-hearted flower, so read with caution!
