Synopsis
Seventeen years ago, two girls born on the same day were sent down completely different paths by an accident.
The real heiress, Yu Shu, went missing before she was two, and no one knew whether she was alive or dead. Zhou Shishi, the nanny's daughter, had been born on the same day. She became a source of comfort for the Yu family, who adopted her and renamed her Yu Shishi. Everyone in the family doted on her.
Years passed, and no one expected that the child everyone had thought was dead would suddenly turn up one day. The Yu family was overjoyed, but then learned to their horror that their daughter had been raised by an old charlatan and had grown into a little charlatan famous throughout the surrounding villages.
Yu's parents and older brother: "blacks out"
Yu Shu's master was a charlatan who relied on psychology for fortune-telling, geography for feng shui, and whose accuracy at divination was a whopping fifty percent. Ahem, I mean, he was a Taoist master. Yu Shu followed him in his work of helping (scamming) the world, guiding (conning) people, and learned every last one of his tricks.
When Yu Shu was seventeen, her master passed away. She was still lost in grief when a group of people showed up at her door, claiming she was the long-lost heiress of the Yu family. Her parents had searched for her for years, and if she went home with them, she would inherit a fortune worth hundreds of millions.
Yu Shu: ...What kind of new kidnapping scam is this? Trying to con a charlatan? Do you really think I haven't downloaded an anti-fraud app?
After a chaotic flurry of explanations, the Yu family finally managed to clear up the misunderstanding and bring home their long-lost biological daughter. From then on, a rumor spread through A Province's wealthy circles: the Yu family's real heiress was a little charlatan!
One day, a wealthy man was driven to distraction by ghosts haunting his home. He sought help from a group of masters of the occult. Yu Shu happened to be there and joined in to make up the numbers.
The vengeful ghost was so powerful that none of the masters could do anything about it. Yu Shu put down her melon seeds, clapped her hands, and calmly volunteered.
Yu Shu copied the other masters and began setting up a ritual altar. The masters frowned. Her stance was full of mistakes. As expected, she was a fraud.
Yu Shu took up a brush and drew a talisman. The masters sneered. The symbols were bizarre, obviously just another trick to deceive people!
Yu Shu finished her skill's windup, raised her hand, drew her sword, and struck the ghost with a speed that left no time to react! A flash of golden light, and the ghost that had given the masters so much trouble vanished into thin air!
The masters: ...???!!!
Yu Shu: All fear comes from not having enough firepower! And all I do is make other people afraid!
CP bonus scene:
One day, Yu Shu got caught up in an occult incident in the entertainment industry and ran into the hottest, most handsome top-tier star of the moment.
Yu Shu: Halt! I can tell at a glance you're a demon!
Fu Li smiled. I can tell at a glance that fate brought us together. Little Heavenly Master, want to date?
