Chapter 1Chapter one:THE AUTUMN

As she stared from the window of her room, Sun-ri felt bad for the fallen leaves around the tree on an autumn night. It looked like they were similar to the fallen pieces of her soul. She tried to look clearly after wiping off the emotions which took a liquid form and exited through her eyes. She then whispered to herself, "if the autumn is to last forever, it's good to learn to be with it forever".She then got lost in her thoughts and slipped into a sleep haunted by nightmares of past

The chaos of the nightmares makes Sun ri wake up early or never really lets her sleep.

she woke up to a feeling of emptiness like every day and greeted the sun with a sigh !! here again!!

Sun ri lives alone in her small apartment. The biggest challenge of hers every day is to find the courage to pick up all her broken pieces and put up a smile to join her workplace.

she opens her closet with no enthusiasm to look great but just to dress up herself. she enters the kitchen to make breakfast and never really gets involved in the taste as she knows it is just for her survival.

His subordinates: "what are we then?"

"you guys are good enough to draw crazy lines on the wall like a kid"

The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite

Wenyan read a book in which a cannon-fodder character sharing her name was a false heiress. After the true heiress assumed her position, the impostor tried to secure her place in the wealthy family by drugging the eldest son and making a done deal out of a cooked rice, only to be unmasked by the Shen Family and end up committing suicide in despair. Wenyan was furious to see such an ending. How could one not survive without the backing of a wealthy family? Hadn't the family provided her with a luxury house and countless luxury goods? Just selling those off would fetch tens of millions. She was just a hopeless case! If she were the Wenyan in the book, she would have relinquished her position and just lived laid-back like a salted fish! But when she woke up from her sleep, she actually transmigrated into the book. True to her word, she stopped scheming. Overnight she packed her bags, sold her house, car, and bags, and looked for a job. - The entire Shen Family noticed the change in Wenyan, their adopted daughter. Not only had she moved out obediently, but she also never caused any trouble again. Even more bizarre was that they could now see her innermost thoughts! 【Dad, Mom, I never wanted to usurp your nest, but the DNA test results of the true daughter have issues. In fact, she's even more fake than I, the bogus heiress.】 Shen Family parents: ...... Then the long-lost 'daughter' who had been found was exposed as an impostor and taken away by the police for questioning. 【Big brother, that schoolmate of yours is no good, he's a corporate spy, the illegitimate child of the Shen Family's archenemies.】 Shen Family's eldest son: ...... Afterwards, the schoolmate got caught stealing confidential documents and was also taken away by the police for questioning. 【Second brother, you are such a pure and noble person, you mustn't be with the Qin Family's daughter, she's just using you, her heart is actually set on someone else.】 Shen Family's second son: ...... Thank you, I'll look into it. 【And third brother, fourth brother......】 In the end, nobody could have predicted that the Shen Family's most undistinguished adopted daughter would become the pampered daughter-in-law.
