Flowers from Evil Bones [Villainess]

[A growing villainess x an aloof beauty / gloomy lunatic / rugged, nurturing man]

-

Yan Zhiling grew up like a lonely ghost, reaching the age of eighteen.

A little fire always burned coldly in her chest.

When she was young, she would sometimes gaze at herself in the mirror late at night, feeling sorry for herself and thinking she'd been dealt a miserable lot in life.

No one cared about her from the day she was born. No one ever asked after her.

The blind fools floating in the sky and the bastards crawling on the ground all begrudged her any good fortune, bullying her at every turn.

She was born with the delicate body of a young lady, yet lived a harder life than the servants in the manor. She couldn't eat good food or wear fine clothes, and had to beg for even a single full meal.

What could she do? She could only fight back.

But she wasn't content with merely fighting back.

The little sweetness Jiang Jixue brought into her life taught her that the fire in her chest came from years of "hunger."

She was like a gluttonous beast that could never get enough, wanting to devour everything.

She wanted every good thing in the world:

Power, status, wealth, honor, love...

If Heaven wouldn't give them to her, she'd take them for herself.

She believed that one day, she'd have them all, one by one.
