Crossing Time

Su Yuning was twenty-three when she learned the truth about her birth: she wasn't the Su family's real daughter, switched at birth and raised elsewhere. Twenty years ago, the Su family faced a crisis and deliberately exchanged her as a newborn to secure financial support from a business partner. Su Zhirou, who had been raised by the Su family for more than twenty years, was a pawn planted by that partner. Everyone assumed that after returning to the Su family, Su Yuning would yearn for their affection and fight to claim her place as the heiress. She couldn't care less. Her maternal grandmother's Fu family once held key patents, but the deal dragged them to ruin and their business was swallowed up. Armed with incomplete clues left behind by her adoptive mother before she died, Su Yuning enters the game alone. She stays clearheaded as she faces the Su parents' self-serving attempts to make amends, Su Zhirou's careful, feigned weakness, and offers of friendship from business figures on all sides. Relying on no benefactor and attaching herself to no one, Su Yuning gradually uncovers buried history, gathers evidence, and tears open the lies that two generations conspired to bury. She seeks only the justice denied to her for twenty years and the return of everything the Fu family should have had. Light romance, heavy on wit and power plays.
