When Su Li regained consiousness again, she felt dizzy momentarily as if she had gone through an ardous roller coaster ride. Trying not to regurgitate everything in her stomach she inspected her surroundings. She was sitting in a wicker chair in an extravagant garden. The garden was washed aglow in the golden rays of the setting sun giving it a picturesque quality. Not in the mood to appericiate the view Su Li silently asked the system about her task and it obediently reported: [Host, this is a modern day present world quite similar to your own. You'll be passed on the relative information like the plot , your task and memories of the original soul. Please accept.]

Soon afterwards, Su Li had a feeling of a needle like probe on her forehead for a secod d and consequently accepted everything that was sent her way. After sorting out all the information dump she had recieved Su Li didn't know what expression to depict or what to even think about after learning the plot. In her world such cases were seldom seen. Moreover her family had always kept her away from the harsh ugliness of the human society so she was somewhat astounded.The plot was almost three quarters akin to all cliche novels in her world.

The female lead, Yu Yan was the illegitimate child of Yu Jian - head of one of the capital city's four most influential families. On the day of the Eldest Young Miss Yu's coming of age ceremony, the female lead was brought back into the Yu household by Yu Jian just mere hours before the banquet.The eldest Young Miss couldn't accept the fact that she had a paternal half-sibling who was infernally younger to her by three months. She had lost her mother at quite a young age therefore she had always treated her father as her ultimate sky and earth. Now, just as she was on the cusp of entering society recieving such a huge blow from the only living blood relative she had left quite a big scar on her pyschologically.

Due to this during the ceremony she was absent-minded and passed it in a haze of betrayal, anger and sadness with nowhere to vent her feelings and no one to discuss her thoughts with. This in turn led most of the high society guests to have an impression that she was concieted and snobbish. On the other hand her father intoduced his spurius offspring as the Second Young Miss of the Yu family. The female lead also charmed all the people present with her humble attitude hiding her poisnous thoughts deep in her heart. Felling side-lined and dispensable in her own celebration The Eldest Young Miss put all the blame on the head of this new younger sister who she felt was an interloper and had stolen her limelight. Her life started going downhill from that moment onwards without her notice but she was too absorbed in her own thoughts to take notice.

Since then her relation with her father started deteriorating and was strained to the point that if one said West the other would surely go East. With the passage of time her anger towards her father turned into apathy. Between herself and Yu Yan it was as if she never put her in her eyes even though Yu Yan tried some under handed tricks to unseat her position. But to Yu Yan's chargin the people of high society were not green horns to all these petty schemes and could see through most of her thoughts. A few years later just as the Eldest Young Miss was about to take her place in the Board of Directors in her family-owned company she met with a car accident leaving her in a comatose state.


Don't know if it could be considered a blessing or curse that even in that deplorable condition where she couldn't do anything to express her thoughts she still lived on for five miserable years. In those five years those white-eyed wolves came to stand at her bedside frequently telling her catatonic body all that they had done to her behind her back. She realised that her accident had been arranged by the father-daughter duo so as to make way for the illegitimate daughter to take her place.

Three years into her catatonic state taking advantage of the fact that she had been unresponsive to many treatments, the duo pulled a fast one and named Yu Yan as the next successor of the company. Yu Yan then went on to live a splendid and incredible life filled with everything one could ask for- riches, love, family and adulation of the masses.

Au contrarie The Eldest Young Miss was tormented emotionally while lying on the hospital bed in her vegetative state which further turned her apathy towards her father into hate. She died with a vengeful heart not reconciled to her circumstances.

Taking in to account the overall plot Su Li sympathised with the legitimate daughter since she herself had spent the last few months of her life in the hospital as well. Moreover that pitiable girl just served as a foil to the so called 'female lead'. Her task was to never let the female lead to gain a foothold in the high society.

If it was the only that simple it would have been an effortless job for her since she had watched enough television dramas and read novels with the same premise before her death. Nevertheless how could her luck take a turn for the better when she had the devil's own luck as her company since childhood thought Su Li sarcastically. The system told her there were two constraints on her during the task:

- She had to make sure of You Yan's physical well being through out her natural life cycle.

- She had a non-compete pact between herself and You Joan

Corralling upto here Su Li could extrapolate her identity without any help or prompt from the system - the lamentable Eldest Young Miss Yu - Miss Yu Yue.

Sighing to herself Su Li thought her first course of action should be to go through all the memories she had recieved of the original soul so that she could memorise all of Miss Yu Yue's quirks, tastes and habits. She closed her eyes and started going through all the memories while enjoying the gentle breeze in the garden. After she came to herself significant amount of time had passed and it was nightime. Realising that nobody had come to even call her Su Li became cognizant of the fact that this was the main residence of the Yu family and the staff would obviously not disturb her until she asked or talked to them. Having thought through things Su Li went into her room to have a good night's sleep after all she could only start with things if she was well rested.
