Synopsis

In her past life, Shen Xi always longed for love and validation from her parents, members of the wealthy Su family. Unfortunately, the attention that she yearned for was stolen by the family’s fake heiress – her elder sister, Su Ruowan. As a result of Su Ruowan’s evil plans, Shen Xi was crippled, disfigured and eventually died of leukemia. However, in a surprising turn of events, Shen Xi was reborn. Returned to the time when she was a seventeen-year-old teenager, she’ll set things right and get her revenge against the Su family.

Chapter 1Passing Out

The pain woke Shen Xi up. The searing agony that tore through her flesh resulted in spasms across her body.

There were people speaking beside her.

"Dad, beat her to death. Despite Wanwan's kindness to her, she's a cruel b*tch and treated her horribly!" 

"Dear, I've already told you not to take her back, since you wouldn't understand the temperament of a child whom you haven't brought up on your own. Yet, you didn't listen." 

Gradually, everything went dark before Shen Xi's eyes, and her vision blurred. To her, the scene that unfolded in front of her seemed funny. 

The three people standing by her side were, in name, her blood relatives. 

Nevertheless, the looks they cast her were nothing but indifference, disdain and anger. They could not wait to get rid of her. 

They did not treat her as their kin at all. Instead, they regarded her as their enemy. 

The handsome, middle-aged man who carried a whip in his hand was her father, Su Yi. 

The beautiful woman next to him with a cold expression and a pair of bloodshot eyes was her mother, Li Jingran. 

There was another young man with a charming face yet a dangerous gaze in his eyes. He was her second elder brother, Su Muyan. 

She had undergone a rebirth. she returned to the place where it all began, back to the Su family that was bereft of love but filled with apathy and desolation.

This time, however, she was no longer the same Shen Xi who allowed herself to be bullied and humiliated. She was now a different kind of Shen Xi , one who was a force to be reckoned with and back with a vengeance! 

It was probably due to her prolonged suffering at the Su family's hands that she remembered the events that transpired very clearly. 

It happened on her seventeenth birthday. As the true heiress of the Su family, it was already the second year since she had been brought home to them and spent her first birthday there. 

Her birthday fell on the same day as Su Ruowan, the fake heiress of the Su family. The latter was five years older than her. 

The whole family had prepared for Su Ruowan's birthday party a month in advance to give her a surprise. 

Yet, Shen Xi's family members seemed to have forgotten about her presence. 

Yesterday, her eldest brother, Su Muxuan, tossed her a teddy bear. It had a pretty pink color. 

She was overjoyed and assumed it was a birthday gift from her eldest brother. As such, she treated it with love and care. 

Unfortunately, this morning, Su Ruowan snatched her teddy bear away.

Shen Xi confronted her and wanted her teddy bear back. During the argument, Su Ruowan slipped and tumbled down the stairs. 

Su Ruowan cried and explained that it was a misunderstanding, and she had no intention of snatching her belonging away. The newly bought teddy bear was dirty and she only wanted to clean it before returning it to her sister. 

See, such a magnanimous excuse and such a great elder sister who was always thinking of the younger one. 

Shen Xi's family pinned the blame on her and accused her of pushing Su Ruowan down the stairs. They condemned her for being evil and ungrateful. 

As if this was not enough, after coming home from the hospital, Su Yi struck her violently with a whip until she fell unconscious without saying another word. 

Coincidentally, Shen Xi was reborn the moment after she fainted. 

"Dear, I think she has fainted," Li Jingran commented with a frown as she regarded the girl, who was lying on the floor, with a look of disgust. 

She fainted after a few whips. Because of her, Wanwan broke her leg, and she dared to pass out! 

This daughter who came from the village was not raised by her. Li Jingran had no love for her and found her to be a pain. 

"Fainted? I think she's playing dead to wriggle out of this mess!" Su Muyan walked towards her with a basin of water in his arms. "Dad, excuse me, I'm going to wake her up." 

Why did she not die? It was all because of her that Wanwan suffered so much! 

Nobody noticed that Shen Xi, who was lying on the floor, opened her eyes without warning. Her gaze was chilly and determined, tinged with a blatant desire to mock those around her.

The Strange Groom's Cursed Bride

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A DEVIL FALLS IN LOVE? *** Alice was told that she was cursed. Perhaps she didn't need to be told. It was as clear as day. The only thing she wanted was MONEY. And she would do anything to get it. Even if it meant pretending to be her twin sister to change her fate. For one year. She didn't mind being a fake and marrying the Wildfire Heir. He would barely be around, she had been told. 'He doesn't seem like much trouble,' she had also been told. 'The third son, on the other hand, is crazy. Stay away from him.' 'As for the second son... avoid him at all costs.' 'Do not cross his path.' But she did. She crossed his path. In fact, she went right into his path herself. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the groom was changed at the last minute. To the Second Son! He was as hot as he was cold. A terrifyingly sexy man who looked like the man she always saw in her dreams. Was this all merely a coincidence? But that wasn't all. She hadn't expected pretending to be her sister to be this tough. First of all, she missed a very important detail: her sister was a Lawyer. She, on the other hand, was only familiar with "You have the right to remain silent..." Secondly, her sister was picky. She was vegetarian. She didn't drink. And... she was bullied? And just maybe... there was more to her sudden disappearance. Her life was about to get much more complicated. Especially with those scary blue eyes watching her every move like a predator on a mission. One year. Was the benefit worth it—worth putting her life on the line to deceive the Wildfires? She might die before the year was over. **** "Women like powerful men, Boss. They like to feel powerless when they are with a man." Hades had initially scoffed, but the idea had wormed its way into his mind. So when he saw her coming from the opposite direction, he decided to test this theory on her. Women liked to feel powerless? As soon as she saw him, her gaze sharpened, wondering why that madman was looking at her with a determined glint in his eyes. Should she run away? But he was already in front of her. "What are you—" He scoops Alice off the ground in one swift motion and drapes her over his shoulder like a sack of flour. All shocked eyes turned to the scene, but no one dared say a word, as they froze mid-air. "HADES!! YOU IMBECILE! PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT!" She thrashes wildly, kicking her legs and flailing her arms. Hades, however, remains unfazed, carrying her out of the place with a triumphant smirk. He didn't believe in love theories, but he had a feeling she would be falling in love with him after this. At the other end, three of his underling watched the scene. "I think Lady Boss is enjoying it. She looks… happy." One noted. The other underling tried to stare intently at Alice's upside-down face. "I think so... I've never seen her look so bubbly around the boss." The third underling was watching, slack-jawed. He facepalmed dramatically. This wasn't what he meant when he told them women liked to feel powerless. Meanwhile, Alice... (Still screaming) *** EXCERPT II: "She is not answering your calls and told you to STOP calling her. Boss, I think your little bride might be mad at you." He snorted. "You are so clueless." "What's your insight, Boss?" "If she keeps rejecting my calls, it only means one thing..." They all leaned closer to hear his powerful insight. "She wants my physical presence," he said with a smug look. One of them wanted to say he didn't think so, but he was too scared to say anything. "Should I go. Should I not go?" He contemplated with a bored look on his face. "GRANT HER WISH, BOSS!" The other clueless henchmen echoed passionately. He smirked. "If you say so," and then he stood up. "Get the car." **** Pleasee add to your library. A bit of dark and fluffy romance. 18+ Comedic. Makes you sit in the edge as Alice tries her best to never get caught (quite futile) See you in the comment section!
