Betrayed and murdered alongside her unborn child by her own husband and in-laws, Yibian learned a brutal lesson in a life where she only ever wanted to be loved: trust is a death sentence.

Yet, death gives way to a second chance.

Yibian awakens to find herself hurled back in time—right to the precise moment before the nightmare began, armed with the knowledge to dismantle her destroyers from the inside out.

“Mother. How does it feel to be thrown out by the son you love so dearly?”

Without mercy, she casts out the mother-in-law who once ruled over her like a tyrant. Next, she turns her sights on the man who discarded her.

“Did you really think I would ever love you? How laughable. Look forward to it—I’m going to strip away everything you own, piece by piece.”

To fuel her bloody vendetta, Yibian joins forces with a dangerous and captivating ally: Isen, a man equally ruthless and devoted to her cause.

“I’m here. To take back my beautiful lover.”

Having suffered enough from the illusions of affection, Yibian sets a strict boundary: no love, no attachments—only survival and ruin.

“Let’s promise not to love each other. Love… is far too exhausting.”

She was certain her heart was frozen for good. But as Isen watches her wage her war of retribution, his own cold composure cracks under the weight of an unexpected obsession.

“You are constantly looking for a way out. The moment your revenge ends, you plan to abandon me and vanish.”

“…That’s—”

“That’s why I’ve started hoping your revenge never ends, Yibian. The thought of losing you makes me want to burn this whole world down just to keep you by my side.”

The man who swore to be a mere weapon for her vengeance has fallen hopelessly in love—and he will tear down heaven and earth to keep her from walking away.
