Love? Hate each other? Check.
Ran Xi is like a cannon-fodder heroine from a storybook.
In her previous life, she was a tool her legitimate elder sister used to win their father's favor. Afterward, her sister killed her with a cup of poisoned wine.
Reborn, Ran Xi sees both of her fiances, the newly crowned top scholar and her childhood sweetheart, die mysteriously one after the other, just before their weddings.
Ran Xi thinks the matter is behind her, but her scumbag father still uses her as a bargaining chip in his career, offering her up as a plaything to his superior.
Ran Xi fakes her death and escapes the wolf's den, only to be recognized by someone. The icy tip of his knife points at her heart, and blood wells up at once.
Ran Xi tells herself it's fine. The short-lived man won't be around for much longer.
