“This is your value as an adopted daughter.”
Betrayed, deceived by her most trusted relatives, and ultimately losing everything with no one left by her side, Yu Ran’s first act upon rebirth is to agree to a half-joking marriage proposal from Ji Yu, the CEO of her family’s rival company.
Ji Yu is a renowned “bad woman” in S City’s high society, having taken over the family business five years ago and used ruthless methods to build the company into the city’s leader. Yu Ran recalls the series of obstacles she placed in Ji Yu’s way for the sake of the Yu family, and her heart is filled with apprehension.
Indeed, every day after marrying the “bad woman,” Yu Ran feels like she is treading on thin ice.
- If she makes a mistake, she faces “household punishment” from CEO Ji.
- If she displeases Ji Yu, she gets kicked out of bed to miserably sleep in the cat bed.
To avoid angering the mistress of the house, Yu Ran can only dutifully and pitifully play the role of Ji Yu’s “pet little fox.”
Juggling academics, career, secretly working against the Yu family, and still finding time to soothe Ji Yu’s temper—the now-lucky Yu Ran, reborn with a second chance, is incredibly successful in her wicked deeds, moving forward like a powerful fox every day.
Soon after, the malicious Yu family from her past life is dismantled, and Yu Ran successfully reclaims her reputation and status. However, she can no longer tolerate Ji Yu and stubbornly demands a divorce.
Ji Yu is noncommittal. She simply runs her fingers forcefully over Yu Ran’s lips, her eyes holding an indescribably complex, dark emotion, “That is not what a good child should do.”
That night, Yu Ran was held down until her voice was hoarse from crying.
