It was only as Yu Heqi lay dying that she realized she was the book's ultimate villain, abandoned by everyone and destined for a tragic end.
In life, she climbed the ladder of power by any means, committed every kind of evil, and seized resources. She ruled the business world, effortlessly manipulating everyone around her.
Most people had little good to say about her. The one thing they did admire, though, was that she had supposedly built her empire from nothing...
Twelve years ago, Yu Heqi held He Kongzhi's hands and said, "Zhizhi, these hands of mine are going to win the world for you. (Black panther face.jpg)"
He Kongzhi: "Thank you..."
Yu Heqi later kept her promise, but He Kongzhi gradually drifted away from her.
They had countless arguments. The most heated one came when he picked up a knife and demanded, "Do you know what you've become? You're more terrifying than the devil! Heqi, can't you just let me go?"
Yu Heqi swallowed her heartache and answered coldly, "No."
Blood splattered across her face. She watched He Kongzhi collapse in a pool of blood.
He Kongzhi's attempt to threaten her with his life bought him only a week apart from her.
Because during that week, he was in intensive care.
Back then, she had put aside business deals worth hundreds of billions by the minute and kept watch outside his room all night, without even changing her clothes.
Now that their positions were reversed, he had not come to see her even once.
Lying in her hospital bed, she cried as she read the extra chapter about her death. The male lead, He Kongzhi, and the female lead, Song Fengju, overcame countless hardships and finally ended up together.
From the very beginning, she had been the villain in their lives, driving the young couple apart.
As Yu Heqi lay dying, she suddenly thought of the stubborn, obsessive life she had led and realized how pointless it all was.
Fame, fortune, resources, and her lover were all things she had taken by force when she was on top, and she lost everything when she fell from power.
She left this world with regrets. She had spent her whole life chasing fame and fortune, desperately clinging to someone who did not love her. If she could live again, she would no longer fight for love. She would just be an ordinary person who wanted nothing to do with the world, preferably staying far away from that seemingly perfect couple.
When she opened her eyes, she woke up at her desk, back at the age of fifteen, on the day she first met He Kongzhi.
He Kongzhi smiled darkly at Yu Heqi, his mind consumed with thoughts of possessing her. No one knew that after she died, he had hired someone to perform a ritual to imprison her soul, then slept beside her night after night for thirty years.
