[The killing in the title is not literal murder. It means "killing the old self": the past identity is "killed" by reality, and the old self dependent on her family is "replaced" by a new, independent, powerful self.]
[Blurb]
Cheng Huiyao has loved three men: her father, her older brother, and her first love.
From them, she received money, fame, status, family affection, and... a blade lodged in her chest.
That wound constantly reminds her that a princess who has fallen from her ivory tower cannot wait for a prince to save her. She can only rely on herself, clawing her way back up step by step by any means necessary.
And so, she became Su Chengyue, and dealt the final blow that "killed" Cheng Huiyao.
