The Reborn Story of a Branch-Clan Heir

Shen Jiyue was just like his name: bright and clear, with a heart untouched by worldly dust.

He had always wanted to put his abundant talents to use in the service of the emperor,

but before his official career could even begin, it was cut short by an imperial examination scandal.

He had thought his misfortune was simply bad luck. Only on the brink of death did he learn how treacherous people could be. His uncle from the main branch had blocked his future, his stepmother had cruelly taken his life, and even the person who had shared his deepest confidences had stabbed him in the back. How could he not hate them?

As Shen Jiyue closed his eyes in hatred, his only regret was that he couldn't live again and send every person who had plotted against him to their graves.

In a nutshell: A pristine white lotus reborn and turned into a sinister black lotus, then rises swiftly to success!
