In her past life, Shen Lingyao was consumed by a raging fire, full of resentment and unwillingness to accept her fate.
When she opened her eyes again, she had been reborn to the time before her mother's burial.
Danger lurks everywhere, and everyone wants her dead for the inheritance.
In this life, she refuses to let anyone trample her again.
She'll poison her enemies and outmaneuver the powerful. Even Pei Linyuan, the lofty heir of the Duke of Dingguo, is someone she'll dare to wager her life against!
Everyone says the young lord is cold-blooded and heartless, but they don't know that he visits her chambers every night, unable to get enough of her.
She calls him a madman. Gripping her chin, he says, "Shen Lingyao, you put this spell on me, so you should be the one to break it."
He once saw her as a pawn, but accidentally fell into her game.
He thought he could control her, but little by little, he went mad for her, becoming the sharpest blade in her hand.
"Pei Linyuan, I'm already steeped in sin. Sooner or later, I'll fall into hell."
"Then I'll tear down hell itself!"
When a vengeful legitimate daughter meets a ruthless young lord, this game is simple: whoever falls first loses.
