Back to the 80s: Reclaiming My Name, My Family, and My Life

In her last life, Song Yao was dumped in a village slum. The girl who replaced her grew up in luxury, beloved by the parents who should have been Song Yao's. Cast aside by her biological parents and never truly accepted by her adoptive family, Song Yao spent her life desperately trying to please everyone—only to be betrayed in the end and drowned by the very "heiress" who stole her identity. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the night she was being forced into marriage. Staring at her greedy adoptive mother and the sleazy old widower, Song Yao merely smiled. In this life, she would rewrite her own fate. The same schemes that once destroyed her life would now be turned against her enemies. On the very night of the forced marriage, she flipped the situation entirely—sending her adoptive mother in her place into the bridal chamber. Meanwhile, Song Yao kept the key token that would lead her back to her true family, calmly waiting for her biological parents to arrive. Soon after, the Shen Family of Beijing welcomed back their true heiress. None of them realized that beneath her quiet composure, Song Yao had already begun laying her plans. The fake heiress once adored as the family's pearl fell from grace into ruin, reduced to a prisoner whose screams went unheard. --- A ‘rumor’ spreads through the elite class. The quiet bodyguard who never leaves Song Yao's side is the hidden heir to the most powerful family in the capital. He clears her enemies without being asked. He stands in every shadow she casts. And only before her does he bow his head.
