[Thank-You Card is being synthesized...]

[Thank-You Card has been successfully synthesized, current progress 73%.]

[You’ve obtained an Identity Fragment, would you like to view it?]

Chuzheng felt a bit anxious. What could her luck possibly unlock—though Chuzheng suspected it was the King’s Account secretly messing with her.

Why not save it?

Maybe unlocking two would have a better chance than one?

Hmm!

Makes sense.

"Not going to look."

[...] Alright, whatever Miss says goes. [Let’s start the next world then.]

"... "

Does it matter if I say no?

Chuzheng woke up to find herself lying on a lawn, reeking of alcohol, and there was not a ghost in sight.

She climbed up from the ground, feeling a bit dizzy, and supported herself against something nearby for a moment.

She was wearing a long skirt that flared out to her ankles, and had only one high heel left on, the other shoe was nowhere to be found.

Luckily, aside from the strong smell of alcohol, there were no noticeable injuries on her.

Standing there for a while, she just felt cold all over, very cold.

What season is this?

Chuzheng squeezed her bare arms, saw no one around, and quickly put on a piece of clothing.

The lawn was a bit prickly on her feet, so Chuzheng swapped to a pair of comfortable slippers.

-

The original Mo Chuzheng was an adopted daughter of the Mo Family.

Because the Mo couple couldn’t have children, they adopted a child.

The original was that adopted child.

But the original didn’t like to speak since childhood. At first, the couple was patient, thinking the child just arrived in a strange environment and was unwilling to open up.

However, until their patience ran out, the original’s instances of speaking were still countable on one hand.

Even though she didn’t say nothing at all, whenever asked something, she’d have no response, making her seem gloomy and naturally unlikable.

Having adopted the child, they couldn’t just send her back.

The two raised her like this, but unexpectedly, the adoptive father Mo Xiangqiu had a biological daughter with another woman, about the same age as the original.

Meaning, the child came about while they were married.

Upon discovering this, the adoptive mother demanded a divorce.

The original awkwardly became the unlikable adopted daughter then.

The adoptive mother resolutely refused to take her.

And Mo Xiangqiu wasn’t very willing either.

Eventually, they went to court, and the original was given to Mo Xiangqiu.

Not long after, Mo Xiangqiu remarried, taking the original to live with the biological child’s mother.

This was a large family, and the original wasn’t Mo Xiangqiu’s biological child. Living here meant the original suffered greatly.

Mo Xiangqiu’s biological daughter didn’t like the original at all.

From the first meeting, she made the original a laughingstock.

As time went on, she did everything possible to torment her.

She’d bring trouble today, and a little surprise for her tomorrow.

Mo Xiangqiu naturally sided with his biological child, never considering if the unlikable original suffered injustice.

The original, dependent and unwelcome, became increasingly silent.

Later, Mo Xiangqiu’s biological daughter framed the original for stealing family secrets.

She was caught red-handed, avoiding a scandal, yet the punishment couldn’t be light.

Nobody believed she wasn’t the culprit, not even Mo Xiangqiu.

The original was kicked out, penniless, without even her ID.

The night she was expelled, she encountered a malicious vagrant, and in escaping, fell down the steps and lost her life.

Now the timeline is just when the original was framed for stealing business secrets.

Chuzheng processed the memory, unsure how to express her feelings, merely sighed silently.

Today, it’s the Fei Family—Mo Xiangqiu’s current wife’s family—hosting a banquet, though the original wasn’t sure why, she was required to attend.

Mo Xiangqiu’s biological daughter brought people to ply the original with drinks.

The original only remembered drinking a lot, and completely forgot what happened afterward.

Woke up lying on the Fei Family’s lawn.

She was caught on her way back.

Then things were found on her...

The crucial part was that her phone had evidence of contact with others.

Caught red-handed, what could the original say?

Business secrets...

Chuzheng patted herself down, the dress was so clingy, where could she hide business secrets?

A few seconds later, Chuzheng reached down to her chest.

A tiny, thin USB, wrapped and held in her hand for a moment, this was it...

Chuzheng found her phone on the ground, locating the message used as evidence.

"Bastard, copy it for me."

[What are you doing?] The King’s Account was wary.

"Just copy it." Chuzheng was quite fierce.

[Miss, we’re a proper system, don’t do such immoral things. We just need to buy, buy, buy!] The King’s Account felt Chuzheng had no good intentions, trying to persuade her to turn back, and be the spendthrift queen.

Unfortunately, minutes later, the King’s Account tearfully copied what Chuzheng wanted.

It was so difficult.

Why is Miss so fierce!

Other people’s Miss is different!

Chuzheng deftly deleted the evidence, and even formatted the phone, just in case there was preliminary evidence that hadn’t been used.

That’s more secure!

Chuzheng confirmed there was nothing odd on her, holding the USB, heading towards the Fei Family’s mansion.

Fei Family spans generations, and except for the collateral branches, the rest lived in one big mansion.

This mansion...

It’s really large.

Though everyone lived in one mansion, each family had its own villa, the entrance to the mansion was different, and if one did not want to encounter any family, they could easily avoid them.

Yet the Fei Family had an oddity, during meals, one must dine at the main house.

So meals at Fei seem like festivals.

Chuzheng thought before she reached where people were, she might be caught first.

That won’t do!

Chuzheng encountered a car that had just sent guests off, and she flagged the car down.

Chuzheng was nominally Mo Xiangqiu’s daughter, and the driver stopped the car.

"Miss Chuzheng." The driver opened the window, not getting out: "Is there something you need?"

The driver’s tone clearly had some disdain.

Chuzheng was unpopular and not a Fei Family member, so naturally, the servants and drivers followed their household behavior.

"Take me home."

"... But I still have guests to drive," the driver hesitated to decline: "Why don’t you wait here for a moment, I’ll call someone... hey?"

Chuzheng already opened the car door and got in.

"Miss Chuzheng, I’m really busy, don’t add to my trouble, okay?" The driver turned his head, dissatisfied: "The guests are still waiting..."

Chuzheng took out two bundles of cash and tossed them over: "Drive."

"..."

The driver glanced at what Chuzheng tossed over in the dim light, and his expression changed.

Money!

So much money!
