Chapter 2
"No!"
The girl sat up abruptly, panting heavily. It took her a long time to calm down. She closed her eyes tightly and opened them again, looking around.
This...wasn't this the house in the village where she had lived before going to college? How did she get back here?
Xu Wanwan was a little confused as she rubbed her forehead. Also, hadn't she been burned to death by Ye Jinmeng? What exactly was going on?
"Could it have been just a dream?" But thinking of the searing pain from the flames, she couldn't convince herself it was just a dream.

Just as Xu Wanwan was thinking, there was a sudden knocking at the door.
"Wanwan girl! Wanwan girl!" A hearty but extremely excited voice came into the room. It was the village chief!
Xu Wanwan was startled for a moment, then heard the village chief shout again, "Wanwan girl, are you awake? Someone from Hai City University is here looking for you!"
She didn't understand why the young miss of the prominent Ye family in Hai City would target someone as insignificant as herself. It wasn't until one night when He Junting, the crush Ye Jinmeng had always secretly admired, confessed to her instead. Only then did she realize everything she was experiencing stemmed from He Junting's affection for her.
So she rejected him. But this made the usually arrogant and aloof Ye Jinmeng even more insanely jealous.
Later, Ye Jinmeng's older brother Ye Jinchen was in a car accident and lost a lot of blood from major injuries. She happened to have the matching blood type when she was at the hospital for a physical exam, so she donated blood to save Ye Jinchen. A nurse mistakenly assumed she was Ye Jinchen's sister because of her resemblance to Madam Ye. But Ye Jinmeng suspected she was deliberately trying to curry favor with her parents, making Ye Jinmeng resent her even more. However, the Ye family took the nurse's casual words to heart.
After a series of investigations, the Ye family discovered that she was actually their child. It turned out the two families had given birth at the same hospital on the same day, but the hospital had negligently mixed up their ID bracelets and taken the wrong babies home.
Although Ye Jinmeng had unlimited disposable income, she had never been loved by her family due to her arrogant and reckless personality. Now she could not accept the reversal in status and completely collapsed overnight. Still harboring hatred for Xu Wanwan, she kidnapped her and made her watch as the entire Ye family perished in a huge fire. Xu Wanwan herself was then tortured to the brink of death and burned alive...
The memories of her previous life surged forth and Xu Wanwan clenched her teeth tightly, her face devoid of color. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with pure terror and her heart seemed imprisoned by endless grief and hatred, the pain making it difficult to even breathe.
She hated Ye Jinmeng, but also hated her own weakness in that previous life. Xu Wanwan clenched her fists and squeezed her eyes shut tightly. When she opened them again, her complexion was still pale but the fear in her eyes had been completely replaced by icy coldness and hatred.
Since heaven had given her a chance to start over, she would definitely seize it and protect the Ye family!
"Ye Jinmeng! Last life you caused my family's ruin and my own death. This life, I will make you pay your blood debt in full!"
