Transmigrated as the Chief Minister's Wicked Cousin

Xia Zhi transmigrated into the body of a noble family's legitimate daughter, raised in luxury and doted on by everyone. Her father was a court minister deeply favored by the emperor, her mother came from a fantastically wealthy merchant family, and her grandmother treated her like the apple of her eye. Her cousin would one day become the most powerful chief councilor in the land, a man even the emperor wouldn't dare contradict. She was the most envied woman in the capital, as long as she kept her head down and didn't get herself killed.

But Xia Zhi was arrogant and couldn't stand her cousin, the otherworldly young man living under her family's roof. She humiliated him at every turn, and even killed the little dog Banfan, the only companion who had stayed by his side after his family was destroyed. That exhausted the last of Sikong Yan's patience. Before long, the future chief councilor, ruthless and black-hearted, would have her thrown into a pond to drown. When the delicate young girl died, there wouldn't be a single patch of unbruised skin on her body.

Faced with this deadly plot, Xia Zhi could only take her soft little legs and nervously put one foot in front of the other, looking for every chance to win over her scheming cousin.

Soon, everyone noticed that the once domineering Fourth Miss had suddenly become the Young Master's little shadow. And the cool, aloof Young Master, as he grew older, began to show his cousin a very different kind of affection...
