Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge

"Mm, I won’t distance myself from you because of this, Youyou."

"Mm, Zhu Li, go have your meal." Knowing Zhu Li had misunderstood, she didn’t bother to explain.

After sending Zhu Li away, Shangguan You dived back into her room.

Her mind still foggy, Shangguan You concluded that the most important thing was to understand everything about her current body and why, at such a young age, she ended up alone in B City—withdrawn, stiff, and friendless—while her entire family was in Beijing. Living in a mansion, enjoying the life of a wealthy young miss, why was she so ordinary at school?

She booted up the computer. Looking at the time displayed, she was struck by a realization, her hands clenching into fists.

I’ve been reborn one year after my death; today marks the first anniversary of that event! Even if I wanted to return to Beijing immediately, what could I change now? Too many things have happened within this year, and this body’s memories of the past year are non-existent.

In this body’s memories, she was alone in her room every day, attending classes in a daze, wanting only to hide herself away, unseen by anyone. That was until Han Yachu appeared, like a burst of sunlight, giving her the sole thought to timidly follow his silhouette. At this thought, her lips curled into a bitter smile. In one year, that despicable couple, Shen Cheng and Wanqian, must have taken even better care of the Shen Family’s affairs. And Grandfather... how would he have reacted to the news of my death? That couple is probably rolling in the sheets right now, laughing at my naivety, enjoying all my property!

She fiercely suppressed the anger rising within her. The only thing to do now is to understand the current state of this body and then, gradually, take my revenge. I will reclaim every single debt owed to me. Those who have wronged me will pay double. Taking several deep breaths, she accessed the encrypted notepad with a memorized password. Upon reading the entries of the previous owner, Shangguan You was completely stunned.

If the original Wanyou was considered a wealthy heiress, then my current identity as Shangguan You is akin to that of a Princess among the wealthy, someone with an exceptionally prominent status. Compared to each other, one is earth, the other is sky. But what does it matter if I’m a Princess of a wealthy family? I was still driven away from Beijing because of schemes within that very world.

Withdrawn and self-loathing. It’s unexpected that this seemingly ordinary Shangguan You would have such a distinguished heritage and background.

The diary revealed that the original Shangguan You did not like her father; she hated him for marrying a malicious stepmother and having a hypocritical sister. In her original family, apart from her grandfather who genuinely cared for her, the other members treated her with superficial kindness. That stepmother and sister, however, were two-faced.

Moreover, due to an accident a year ago, the original Shangguan You had been so terribly frightened that her vivacious nature dimmed. She turned into a more wooden and dull person who rejected any form of companionship. As for what kind of accident, the diary didn’t specify. That’s why her family had her hide her identity and attend high school in B City, hoping she could blend into a school environment again.
