A long time ago, two babies were exchanged at birth. Liu Jiang Qing, originally the biological daughter of the Cui family’s merchant, was mistakenly raised as the Liu family’s noble daughter. However, driven by foolish pride and ambition, she forced herself too hard and ended up in a miserable end, all alone.

In this new life, she decides to be the generous and carefree daughter: Oh, what? You are the supporting female character?

You want to reclaim your noble birthright as the legitimate daughter of a noble family? Go on, take it back!

Desire my celebrated reputation as a talented woman in the Imperial Capital? Be my guest!

Fancy my promising and handsome husband? Sure, take your time!

What… you even want to foist upon me that sinister and ruthless Rebellious Prince you served in your past life? Hmm… there is really no need to be so courteous…

Brief Introduction: The ancient version of a bad boy second-generation pursuing the top student school beauty, with a face-slapping romantic journey.

Qiongnang, the FL, catches her husband with her sister - well, not really her sister but the „real daughter" of her family - in bed. She's enraged and even more enraged to find out that everybody seems to be fine with making her sister a concubine for her husband. Shortly thereafter she dies mysteriously. ... more>>
Spoiler

Well, not really mysteriously her good "sister" bribed a servant to push her into the pond.

[collapse]

Reborn in her younger years, she finds herself with her real/biological family. She realizes that her last life was filled with unease (she always felt like an imposer, thus worked hard to be "perfect"), hardship and lacking real warmth. She decides to live this life as good as possible, taking care of her family. But sadly the daughter she was switched with, and was also reborn, doesn't seem to want to let her off...

The story depicts her journey, her growth, her relationship with her family and also her relationship with the ML.

The ML is a prince, known for his sleazy, womanizing demeanor and she had already been entangled with him in her last life.

Spoiler

The ML is not really a womanizer but he is kind of an ass. At least at the beginning. Those who already read books by this author should have a general idea of the type of ML she writes about. He was already interested in her in his last life, he even proposed marriage, which she declined. For some reason he couldn't really forget her and kind of always kept an eye on her, sometimes protecting her (secretly) and sometimes cornering her and taunting to her about the empty and fake life she's living. In this life, he's also interested in her from the beginning.

They meet by accident (his carriage hurts her brother), he realizes she's a former noble he already meet and though to marry. Due to her changed status he directly coerces her to come to his manor as a servant. From there on their relationship begins. He is problematic at the beginning, there is no other way to say it. He's a person in power, a person who regards the life of others as less, or rather he feels like he can do what he wants. He wants her and he doesn't understands why she wouldn't want him. She actually gets away from him and he learns to respect her and treat her right.

He's also in a weird/dangerous situation, where hes a "King with a different surname" meaning although he has power and status, he is no descendant of the imperial family. In the eyes of others he's solely depending on the favor of the Emperor. But as soon as someone else becomes Emperor, his days won't be good...

[collapse]

ML's background:

Spoiler

He is the son of the emperor and his first love / true love, his cousin. ML's mother later remarried and the ML grew up, not knowing about his origins. As he finds out, he's deeply hurt and confused. The emperor doesn't necessarily wants him to be the crown prince, but he wants him to be a good prince and life a good, pampered life, therefore he indulges him.

[collapse]

The FL:

Spoiler

She's a intelligent, talented and positive person. She learned a lot from her past life and leaves the bitterness behind, which I found inspiring. She has a great relationship with her family. The FL is bold but not overly so, willing to work hard and strife for her goals. Although the ML tries to corner her, she finds her way out, she indulges him at times (also because she likes to be physical with him), but she puts her foot down when it comes to things that cross her bottom-line. For example at some point the ML does something really bad

Spoiler

He pushes her in a fit of anger and she hurts herself (while pregnant I might add) (for clarification he didn't do it on purpose and didn't realize that he hurt her)

[collapse]

and she decisively leaves

Spoiler

and divorces him, not caring that she's pregnant or that he's more powerful than her

[collapse]

There are several people who get the memories of their last live/ get reborn The FL, the former husband and the real daughter

[collapse]
.

The rest of the characters like her family, the princess, both of her brothers (the bio-brother and the one she grew up with), the Empress Dowager and to some extend the Emperor are written well and multi-demensional.

I liked the story a lot. <<less

The most I can give this is a three star. And I haven't finished the book yet but I have standards. One of them is I do not like male leads who sexually harass without consent obviously.

Let me correct a summary for you: "The ancient version of a bad boy s*xual harasser second-generation pursuing the top student school beauty, with a face-slapping romantic journey."

Of course the author is going to whitewash it for you but I still can't f*cking get over the fact that he ... more>>
Spoiler

blackmailed her into indentured servitude for pennies with an incident that he created to trap her and then kissed her while he was her employer twice without her consent. In a very almost public area. Pretty much not giving a f*ck about her reputation. So f*cking great. Just to clarify in case anyone wants to defend him in the future. Just because his bodyguard was the one who blackmailed her doesn't mean he is not of fault because he still had to nod for the bodyguard to be able to do that and be okay with that in the end. So his agreement with it is basically the same as doing it let's be f*cking real.

[collapse]
I literally can't. But the only thing that's keeping me going. And honestly this would be a one star because if I didn't enjoy the other parts of the book. But I really just honestly God, I literally am just looking forward to her vegetarian restaurant becoming successful. I am so s**ked into the business part of this LOL. I just want her to have a successful restaurant. I'm so easily LOL... I mean honestly once they divert from that and probably focus on the romance I will probably end up lowing my rating but whatever It really depends if the author will actually make the ML suffer for being an as*hole before. which I doubt. Seeing how things are being written right now.

Anyways yeah the ML not my favorite not even my least favorite just a sh*t person who has flavor that we're supposed to accept as an ML but whatever he loves her yay? So everything's okay. That's a sarcasm by the way. Anyways yeah I'm only interested in the business part. And the family part. Because I like happy families but I don't know how much we're going to get it so hopefully there's a decent part of it. The translations currently are pretty good I would say. Definitely increase the font size would be nice. But other than that I think it's good translations.

I just posted this review but then I continued reading and I can't justifiably give it three stars. Like he just did it again.
Spoiler

he emotionally guilted her And basically blackmailed her by saying "oh it's my bad that I had a misunderstanding and made you pay 5, 000 tassels but in order for me to properly give it back to you I need to give you a reward so you have to come cook for me for a banquet. Oh you're Right I should give you an extra thousand. Oh you don't want to? But your brother who borrowed money for you has all these loan debit people coming to his house all the time and his family is very unhappy with him I'm sure you wouldn't want that and then drops the money in front of her face not giving her an option okay see you later at the banquet bye bit*h you're mine you have no option I can't take no for an answer because I'm a prince and a guy and you're just a commoner bye"

[collapse]
I'm paraphrasing but that's basically what he said to her and I can't believe he just did that again to her and this is a romance that this is a romance. Yeah like f*ck no okay I just simply can't. Being coerced into a romance is never fun and I don't like reading it. Dnf. Someone With better patience than me will hopefully see if he ever gets punished for being an as*hole but unlikely. Anyways if you enjoy this good for you but I don't. <<less
