Miss Chi Yu of the Chi family has been plagued with misfortune since birth. She has endured car accidents, kidney failure, and experts predicted she wouldn’t live past eighteen. Fortunately, those around her dote on her excessively, indulging her bad temper and pampering her into a spoiled princess.

However, one day she accidentally opens a book and discovers that she is actually an adopted child of the Chi family, meant to serve as a scapegoat for the true heiress, the real Miss Chi born on the same day, month, and year as her.

They elevated her to the clouds, subjected her to public scorn and hatred, all to later declare that the “innocent” girl was the true heiress once she was gone. Desperate to change her fate, Chi Yu finds herself thwarted by a mysterious force—destined to die on her eighteenth birthday.

In her despair, Chi Yu turns dark. If she’s doomed to die a wretched death, then no one else will have a peaceful life!

She becomes increasingly ruthless and arrogant, forcing her deceitful assistant to apologize on his knees and disrupting her uncle’s multi-million-dollar deal. They are furious, enraged, and helpless. If they want the kitchen maid’s daughter to survive, they cannot touch her.

Everyone hates her, except for the newly hired bodyguard who brainlessly defends her to the end. “Miss, you’re spot on, brilliant, and absolutely infuriating!”

Chi Yu: Although he seems a bit foolish, he’s quite endearing, isn’t he?

As her eighteenth birthday approaches and she resigns herself to her grim fate, a prominent family from the capital arrives, claiming their lost daughter…

The Spoiled and Malicious Young Miss Awakens

"Cheng Huai is planning to switch careers?" Qi Chao's reaction mirrored Chi Yu's exactly.

On her second visit to Qi Chao's office, Chi Yu appeared more at ease. She casually picked up an orange from the tea table, peeled it, and fed half to Qi Chao.

"Surprising, isn't it? I also find it odd."

Qi Chao remained silent for a few thoughtful moments before deciding to share some recent rumors he had heard with Chi Yu.

"Not long ago, the Cheng family backed the wrong side, and Cheng Huai's father has since stepped back from the limelight."

Chi Yu was taken aback but still couldn't quite understand. "Even so, his father hasn't retired. Why make such a drastic change?"

Wouldn't having familial support be far better than starting anew in an unfamiliar place?

Ever since Qi Chao took over the Qi family, he had gained a comprehensive understanding of the intricate power dynamics in the capital. He knew far more than the average person.
