[Reborn for Revenge] [Face-Slapping and Punishing Scumbags] [No Miserable Suffering, Straight to the Good Stuff] [Powerful, High-Ranking, Coolheaded Heir] [Reborn, Clear-Eyed Black Lotus Beauty]
In her past life, Jiang Yu gave her heart and soul to the wrong man. Imprisoned in a dungeon for who knew how many years, she was finally skinned alive and fed to dogs by her fake-sweet stepsisters!
Reborn, she tears off the sisters' hypocritical masks with her own hands. The pain of having her heart carved out and the humiliation of having her legs broken will be repaid a hundredfold.
She helps her mother sever her parasitic marriage to her scumbag father and rescues her older sister from her sadistic husband's family. This time, she will protect the loved ones she lost in her previous life.
When the Third Prince tries to claim the throne by stepping over Jiang Yu's corpse
"You want the throne? You think you're worthy? I'll make this realm your coffin and bury your entire clan!"
She has planned to go down fighting and live out her life alone, but the heir, famed for his cool restraint, presses his sword to her throat:
"A Yu, why dirty your hands by killing? I'm here to deal with faithless men."
The world calls him upright and refined, a noble crane among the clouds, a flower atop a sheer cliff. Little do they know he has two faces, sneaking through her window every night:
"A Yu, if you want to overthrow the old dynasty, I'll be the founding hero at your side. If you want to be the wicked consort who brings chaos to the realm, I'll be your treacherous minister."
Jiang Yu: Wait, what? We agreed this was just a partnership. How did we go from working together to you becoming bewitched and deciding you can't live without me?
