Born with the Power to Govern My Family's Fortune

Meng Jiaoyue died suddenly in her sleep and was reincarnated. Fortunately, she still had the two little books, one black and one white, that let her control fate.

The Meng family is the foremost family of scholars in the Great Yu Empire, with centuries of heritage. Its Hanmo Academy has nurtured countless students, but generation after generation, the family has had no daughters. From the moment she is born, she becomes their one and only girl.

Her grandfather pays a fortune to have the empire's finest jade carver turn a piece of Lantian jade, bestowed by the founding emperor of Great Yu, into a pendant. At her hundred-day celebration, he places it around her neck himself and declares that whoever wears it in the future will become a Meng son-in-law.

She is truly the apple of the Meng family's eye.

At her hundred-day celebration, the four great families, the emperor, and all the prominent clans bring along their eligible boys.

Meng Jiaoyue receives a mountain of gifts and, though only a hundred days old, lays eyes on a whole host of handsome little boys who might one day become her husbands.

She thought she could lie flat from the day she was born, but soon discovers that life in the Meng family isn't easy. The world is far from peaceful, and its intrigues are even harder to deal with than the scheming she endured in her previous life, before awakening her spiritual root.

Most importantly, she finds that the little books that control fate aren't as simple as they seem. It looks like she can't go on living this way.

Everyone believes that any daughter raised by the Meng family is bound to become the model of a refined young lady.

As time passes, however, the Meng family's cherished daughter doesn't grow into the unrivaled lady everyone expected. Instead, she rides hard and acts as arrogantly as she pleases.

Her coming-of-age celebration is the opposite of her hundred-day party: not a single eligible young man attends. The jade pendant the head of the Meng family spent a fortune on has become something they all avoid like the plague.

But they don't know that Meng Jiaoyue has done it all on purpose.

Meng Jiaoyue thinks, “If they want to scheme against me, they won't find so much as a door or a window to get through.”

With beautiful mountains and rivers and a world teeming with life, how could she waste time on romance?
