  In her previous life, Xu Anran never realized her husband, Qin Xiaokun, was a wolf in sheep's clothing until it was too late. He had deceived her with a facade of affection, schemed to take over her family's fortune, and destroyed her loved ones. In the end, he even coldly ran her over to pursue his true love. 
  But now, Xu Anran has been given a second chance. She wakes up on the day of her marriage to Qin Xiaokun, five years before her tragic death. This time, she won’t be anyone’s fool. She’s determined to protect what’s rightfully hers and make every betrayal pay. 
  In front of the shocked Qin family, Xu Anran boldly approaches Jiang Rongyan, Qin Xiaokun's greatest rival, and asks with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, would you marry me?" 
  Jiang Rongyan accepts, and thus begins a new chapter of revenge, with Qin Xiaokun left humiliated in her wake. Xu Anran had planned to avoid relationships this time around, but as their arranged marriage comes to an end, Jiang Rongyan has no intention of letting her walk away so easily.
