Synopsis

Shen Xi was the daughter the Jiang family had mistakenly taken home. After their real daughter, Jiang Xue, returned, Shen Xi’s foster mother asked Shen Xi to stay, hoping she could help Jiang Xue get used to life in the city as Jiang Xue had been living in the countryside all this while. Alas, everyone claimed that Shen Xi was clinging to the Jiang family because she refused to part with the family’s wealth. Her foster parents didn’t clarify this accusation. Then, Shen Xi’s fiance ended up getting engaged to Jiang Xue instead. One day, Jiang Xue killed someone when she was driving. Shen Xi’s foster parents knelt before Shen Xi, begging her to take the fall for Jiang Xue with tears in their eyes. Shen Xi agreed to their request to repay their kindness for raising her. However, she didn’t know that the person Jiang Xue had killed was her foster father, in other words, Shen Xi’s biological father! While Shen Xi was in prison, Jiang Xue even indirectly killed Shen Xi’s biological mother! In an instant, Shen Xi became an orphan.

Then, she detonated a bomb, sacrificing her life to take revenge for her biological parents. However, after the bomb exploded, Shen Xi was shocked to find herself returning to many years ago when Jiang Xue was first found, and Shen Xi’s identity of not being the Jiang family’s real daughter was about to be exposed. During this time, she was still a rich young lady dressed in expensive clothes as she sat in the Jiang family’s car on the way to her fiance’s birthday banquet. Shen Xi’s lips curled up slightly. A good show was about to begin. She wanted to change her fate and her biological parents’ fates. However, she never expected that both her parents were heirs to a large financial group.

Then, the paparazzi caught her on camera, entering a hotel with a rumored bigshot. The crowd gasped. Was this bigshot Shen Xi’s brother as well?

Well, first of all, they update the stories to fit contemporary values. Shakespearean plays were written in a different era with different social norms. Retellings in young adult fiction can make the stories more inclusive. For instance, in a retelling of 'The Merchant of Venice', the anti - Semitism might be addressed in a more modern and sensitive way. Also, the addition of elements like magic or science - fiction in some retellings makes them more exciting for modern audiences who are used to these kinds of genres. And the characters are often made more accessible, with their motives and actions being more in line with what modern young people can empathize with.
