Super Sweet! The Reborn Heiress Pursues a Possessive Tycoon

Ning Zhiyuan dies in her previous life after falling from a great height, a tragedy orchestrated by her best friend Bai Xiaoxiao and her lover Pei Jin. Her family is ruined, her father imprisoned, and she is left with nothing. Shen Li, the man she had cruelly rejected and engaged to only because of a past kidnapping incident, travels thousands of miles to avenge her. He ultimately chooses to die alongside her, burying himself in a crystal coffin with her shattered remains. When Ning Zhiyuan opens her eyes, she finds herself reborn three years in the past, standing in front of Shen Li on the day of their engagement. He is in a wheelchair, having lost a leg rescuing her from kidnappers, though she later discovers he has already recovered. In her past life, she had run away from the banquet to reunite with Pei Jin, causing Shen Li public humiliation and eventually leading to the cancellation of the engagement. This time, determined to repay the emotional debt she owes him and prevent the tragic future, she locks the door and refuses to let him leave, declaring that she will take responsibility for him and that the engagement will proceed.

The engagement banquet becomes the first major test of Ning Zhiyuan’s changed attitude. Reporters, hired by a rival family and colluding with Pei Jin, attempt to sabotage the event by asking humiliating questions about her relationship with Pei Jin and accusing Shen Li of being a third party. In the past, Ning Zhiyuan would have confirmed these rumors or fled. Instead, she publicly defends Shen Li, threatening legal action for defamation and linking her arm through his to show unity. When the hired reporter produces a recording of a bribe, Ning Zhiyuan admits to the payment but claims it was to test his loyalty, a lie that confuses everyone. Shen Li, expecting her to expose his disability and end the engagement, is instead stunned when she insists on moving the wedding date forward. She also confronts Bai Xiaoxiao, who tries to lure her away from the banquet, and has her escorted out for wearing attire inappropriate for a guest. Later, Ning Zhiyuan tracks down Pei Jin at a club, where he and his friends are mocking her and betting on her humiliation. She slaps him, pours wine over his head, and publicly declares that she is the one who dumped him, severing ties with him completely.

Returning home, Ning Zhiyuan confronts the servant family, the Bai mother and daughter, who have long manipulated her and her father. She fires them and confiscates the gifts she had bought them, ending years of exploitation. Her father, Chairman Ning, who had always been too busy and guilty to notice the abuse, finally sees her strength and supports her decision. Ning Zhiyuan then moves into Shen Li’s residence, claiming she wants to live with her fiancé to prepare for the wedding. Shen Li, however, remains distant and guarded. He believes her sudden affection is merely a ploy to use him as a cover while she secretly meets Pei Jin. He attempts to leave on a fabricated business trip, but Ning Zhiyuan stops him by feigning an injury and later by hugging him from behind. She notices his leg injury is causing him significant pain and insists on caring for him, applying medicine to his wounds and cooking for him. Shen Li is torn between his deep-seated fear of rejection and his inability to resist her touch. He reveals that in their childhood, she had once taken the blame for a broken vase to protect Bai Xiaoxiao, which led to him being beaten by his grandfather and a note from Bai Xiaoxiao convincing Ning Zhiyuan that Shen Li hated her. This misunderstanding had driven a wedge between them for years. Despite his reservations, Shen Li agrees to stay, allowing Ning Zhiyuan to begin the slow process of rebuilding trust and healing the wounds of their past.
