ShenWuyin

The daughter who was lost too soon and remembered too late was Luo Xinyi.

At sixteen, she returned to the Zhou family in her first life, only to be greeted by icy looks, whispers, and four brothers who treated her as an outsider. She made an effort to win their affection. She made an effort to be the ideal sister. However, her adopted sister Zhou Yuxi, the same girl who betrayed her, her trust, and eventually her life, buried all of her hard work beneath her lies.

Luo Xinyi has no desire to reprise her role after being reborn only a few days prior to her return to that frigid mansion. She will not plead for love this time. She refuses to cry in private. She also isn't going to allow the past to happen again.

Luo Xinyi is prepared to change her destiny because she has the knowledge of her first life, a keen intellect, and the hacker and healer skills that the mysterious boy who once saved her taught her.

However, fate has other ideas. Something changes when she meets Gu Yichen, a guest lecturer whose eyes seem to recognize her soul. He is composed. Nice. And oddly familiar.

Luo Xinyi must choose whether to allow the hurt of her past to harden her heart as family secrets come to light, suppressed feelings surface, and love blossoms in unexpected places. Or let herself be loved at last?

This is the tale of the girl they once disregarded, who rose again to be remembered and loved rather than to exact revenge. and never forgotten.

Rebirth: Loved Too Late

Qinghe University was buzzing, just like it was in her first life.Only this time, Luo Xinyi wasn't here to blend in.

She walked through the courtyard like she belonged—because she did.Every step she took echoed with intention.Every glance she received? She returned it with eyes that didn't flinch.

It was hers. And she wasn't here to be forgotten again.

"Why do I feel like you're about to punch anyone you meet?" Yan Shuang whispered beside her as they passed a group of loud students.

Shuang laughed, but Xinyi's eyes were sharp, scanning the crowd.

Leaning near the courtyard wall, arms crossed, head tilted like the world bored him.

He was alone, but he looked like he belonged to the shadows.Same scar, same jawline, same detached aura that screamed untouchable.

She didn't look away.She didn't turn back.She walked right toward him.

He noticed her before she reached him. His eyes narrowed slightly, as if trying to place her again. But there was still no recognition.

Until she stopped—two steps away—and looked him dead in the eye.

"You followed me earlier," she said, her tone even. "And left something in my bag. Coward move."

His expression barely changed, but his jaw tensed.

"You shouldn't be here," he said flatly.

Xinyi tilted her head. "Funny. I was about to say the same about you."

Zhou Hao's eyes sharpened. "You're not part of this family."

"Not by your definition." Her voice didn't rise, but her words hit like iron. "But we share the same blood. Or did that get filtered out with your pride?"

A few students slowed down near them, sensing tension.

He glanced at them, then back at her. "You don't know anything about me."

"But I do." Her gaze didn't waver. "I know you like fighting more than fixing. That you ran from family dinners and showed up when no one expected you. I know you hated that house… and everyone in it."

"Who the hell are you?" he asked quietly.

Xinyi stepped forward. "I'm the ghost your family tried to erase. And I'm done being quiet."

That night, back in her dorm, she dropped her bag on the floor and sat on her desk chair, adrenaline still buzzing under her skin.

Shuang peeked in. "Tell me that look on your face is from winning an argument and not punching someone."

"I didn't punch," Xinyi said calmly. "But I made him listen."

Shuang blinked. "You're glowing. Like... violently."

She took out the folded note from earlier:

She stared at it again, then calmly tore it in half.No drama. No tears. Just peace

"He told me not to come back," she said.

Xinyi looked up, fire gleaming in her eyes.

"So I showed up louder."
