Sang Yu dies at the hands of the Shen family, who view her solely as a blood donor for their favored daughter, Shen Yanyan. Her former lover, Jiang Yizhou, coldly abandons her, having long despised her for her past as the mistress of Huo Yan, the ruthless heir of the Huo family. After being cursed and buried alive in a well, Sang Yu’s spirit is discovered by Huo Yan, who has returned to avenge her by torturing her killers in the same manner. In a moment of intense grief and revelation that he loved her all along, Sang Yu’s consciousness is reborn, returning to 2018, the year she was first recognized by the Shen family and forced to leave her true family, her three older brothers.
Reborn, Sang Yu enrolls at Huaqing University, determined to escape the fate of being a blood bag and to reclaim her life. She arrives late due to mandatory hospital visits for Shen Yanyan and is assigned a desk next to Huo Yan, who is currently an eighteen-year-old student. Unlike the madman she remembered from her previous life, this younger Huo Yan appears aloof and detached. Sang Yu decides to use their proximity to alter his trajectory, hoping to prevent the seven years of imprisonment and abuse that defined their past relationship. She adopts a dual persona: outwardly sweet and obedient to manipulate those around her, while internally cold and calculating.
Her first test comes when she confronts Pei Jing, a rival who attempts to assault her in the woods behind the library. Sang Yu brutally defeats Pei Jing, revealing a hidden ferocity that shocks her classmates. Huo Yan witnesses the aftermath and becomes intrigued by her duality. Their interactions intensify as Sang Yu navigates university life, working part-time at an internet cafe to support herself financially and severing ties with the Shen family. She refuses to return to their home, choosing instead to live in her dilapidated childhood house, waiting for her brothers to return.
A pivotal moment occurs when Huo Yan violently attacks Wang Yang, a classmate who harasses Sang Yu at the internet cafe. Huo Yan’s loss of control triggers a protective instinct in Sang Yu, who tends to his wounds in a park. She promises him unwavering loyalty, a stark contrast to the betrayal he expected from women. This act begins to soften Huo Yan’s hostile exterior, creating a complex dynamic where he is simultaneously drawn to and suspicious of her. Meanwhile, Sang Yu firmly rejects Jiang Yizhou and Shen Yanyan, ending their engagement and refusing to provide further blood donations, marking her definitive break from her past life’s oppression.
The story follows Sang Yu’s strategic maneuvering as she balances her academic ambitions in computer science with her personal quest for revenge and redemption. She leverages her coding skills to earn money, gaining independence, while carefully managing her relationship with Huo Yan. She aims to heal his psychological trauma and prevent him from becoming the monster she knew, all while exposing the Shen family’s true nature. As she reconnects with her brothers and builds a new life, the tension between her past memories and present realities drives the narrative forward, setting the stage for a confrontation with those who wronged her and a redefined future with Huo Yan.
