The Real Heiress Came Back to Life After the Story Ended

Cen Shihua died in an accident. Only after her death did she learn that she was a cannon-fodder supporting character in a CEO romance novel.

As a disposable character, her death was never explained in the story. But she knew who had killed her: her best friend of many years, the novel's female villain, who had posed as Cen Shihua and married into a wealthy family as a fake heiress.

Cen Shihua watched her friend pretend to be her and enter the wealthy household, furious but helpless, just a wandering spirit.

She had no idea when her drifting existence would end, so she could only watch the story unfold as it had in the book.

Then, at the finale, just as the male and female leads kissed at their wedding, she drew a deep breath and sat up in the funeral home.

"You're awake?" Those were the first words she heard from Xu Lang after waking.

"I'll help you." Those were the words Xu Lang spoke when she decided to reclaim her place as the family's heiress.

Xu Lang held Cen Shihua from behind and sighed softly in her ear. "Cen Shihua, you should shamelessly take advantage of my love for you. I'm your loyal dog. I'll only listen to you."

His words sounded soft to Cen Shihua, like a promise, and yet they made her feel deliciously ticklish all over.

Who was Xu Lang? He was a villain who toyed with the male lead, a demon from the abyss. People feared and respected him, and some hated him to the bone.

But to Cen Shihua, Xu Lang was her lover, one of the few people she could trust after coming back to life.
