Only after Yan Xi died did she learn that she was merely a "fake heiress" who had taken the female lead's place in a novel.
Her only purpose was to make the female lead's "true kindness and beauty" shine by comparison.
And then she came back to life...
"This time, I'm doing things my way. Whether they acknowledge me as family has nothing to do with me."
But having been raised as the real heiress, she knew nothing about how the world worked, and it wasn't easy to strike out on her own.
So...
Start a company, hire talented people, find her childhood friend...
Get drunk, get bullied, find her childhood friend...
Onlookers: "What the hell, a childhood friend? Believe that and I'll believe anything."
Childhood friend: I'm not a childhood friend. I'm her babysitter...
Warning: The female lead may be a bit of a hypocrite, pretending to be virtuous while doing whatever she likes. If that's not your thing, don't read.
