Chen Jiazhi harbored a secret known only to herself.

Two months ago, she had been reborn.

Chen Jiazhi remembered feeling bewildered at first, then ecstatic.

Because in her twenty-fourth year, something would happen that she would resent for the rest of her life. Chi Yu, the girl she grew up with in the orphanage, turned out to be the daughter of the richest family in the city!

And it seemed the heavens had heard her silent plea—not only granting her rebirth, but also placing her back in time before Chi Yu was discovered by the Su family!

Chen Jiazhi clearly remembered that in her past life, Chi Yu had been found and taken back by the Su family in September.

She had been reborn in May.

In her previous life, after Chi Yu was taken back by the Su family, they were filled with guilt about her life in the orphanage and showered her with compensation.

Luxury cars, villas, expensive jewelry, shares in Su Group… everything was lavished upon Chi Yu.

Chi Yu’s transformation from an impoverished girl into a billionaire Young Miss happened almost overnight.

As Chi Yu’s childhood friend, Chen Jiazhi had also reaped considerable benefits after Chi Yu’s return.

Chi Yu gave her many expensive gifts and even secured her a job at Su Group headquarters, a place countless people could only dream of entering.

Initially, Chen Jiazhi was happy for Chi Yu finding her family. But after receiving “handouts” from Chi Yu time and again, a sense of imbalance slowly grew within her.

If Chi Yu truly cared for her, she wouldn’t just give away her unused bags and jewelry—she would transfer money directly.

If Chi Yu truly cared for her, she wouldn’t just find her a simple job. As the Young Miss to a vast fortune, Chi Yu clearly had so much money yet was stingy about sharing even a sliver.

Just a little scrap from under her fingernail would have been enough for Chen Jiazhi to live a life of luxury without ever working again.

Instead, Chen Jiazhi had to toil day after day while Chi Yu blissfully enjoyed her extravagant life. How could Chen Jiazhi not feel hatred?

Moreover, Chi Yu eventually used the Su family’s power and status to enter a marriage alliance with Shen Yanzhi, the head of Shen Group!

Although Shen Yanzhi died unexpectedly soon after, Chi Yu received a substantial inheritance, attracting even more wealthy suitors in the capital.

After her rebirth, Chen Jiazhi quickly formulated her goal and plan.

The heavens had granted her rebirth, surely because they heard her lifelong wish from her past life—to become Chi Yu. That’s why they sent her back before Chi Yu was discovered by the Su family.

What good was being the recipient of handouts compared to wielding power herself?

From now on, she would no longer be the Chen Jiazhi who received Chi Yu’s charity. She would become the Su family Young Miss!

Therefore, she had ruthlessly plotted to replace Chi Yu’s identity, undergoing plastic surgery to forge the birthmark, collecting Chi Yu’s hair follicle samples… and finally, ensuring Chi Yu’s death!

Her plan was remarkably successful. The Su family indeed acknowledged her identity and transferred all the guilt and compensation they had for Chi Yu in the past life onto her.

Except… thinking of that noble, aloof man she just saw, Chen Jiazhi felt a stir of desire.

This man, Chi Yu’s fiancé from the previous life—she would have him!

Chen Jiazhi immediately called Su Muyang.

Among the Su family members she had met since her return, Chen Jiazhi had grown closest to this second elder brother, Su Muyang.

Mainly because she used information from her past life to help Su Muyang secure the development rights for the Huai City project. The originally somewhat arrogant Su Muyang promptly changed his view of Chen Jiazhi.

Hearing Chen Jiazhi inquire about Shen Yanzhi, Su Muyang immediately sensed something amiss. “Little sister, why are you asking about him?”

“Mingyue brought me to Jinhuang Entertainment to have fun. We ran into Young Master Peng’s birthday party, and President Shen was there too…” Chen Jiazhi asked knowingly, “Second Brother, President Shen doesn’t have a girlfriend, right?”

“Little sister, don’t even think about that guy. He’s notoriously a cold, single-minded workaholic in our circle. There’s not a woman around him, not even a female mosquito. You won’t be able to chase him.” Su Muyang said bluntly, “If you want to date, just say so. I have a few buddies from decent families who are single. I’ll arrange a meet-up some other day and introduce them to you.”

Chen Jiazhi was frustrated. Su Muyang was idle all day—everyone knew he was a playboy heir. What prospects did the guys he hung out with have, aside from relying on their parents? In terms of family background, status, or capability, which of them could compare to Shen Yanzhi?

Having been reborn, of course she would pick the best boyfriend!

At this moment, Chen Jiazhi completely forgot how, in her past life, she had repeatedly begged Chi Yu to take her to banquets and employed all sorts of petty schemes just to get the contact information of those wealthy heirs.

…

Meanwhile, on another front.

After Shen Yanzhi left the private room, he discovered his phone, which had been burning hot, had inexplicably returned to normal.

He stood still, gazing down at his phone.

Inside the phone, Chi Yu watched him nervously. Just moments ago, upon hearing Chen Jiazhi’s voice, her emotional turmoil had been so great she hadn’t realized it was placing a heavy burden on the phone’s operations.

By the time she realized, it was too late.

Chi Yu’s heart was in turmoil, even forgetting about Chen Jiazhi in the private room for a moment.

Under Shen Yanzhi’s calm, deep gaze, every second felt like an eternity.

Fortunately, he didn’t seem to notice anything amiss. With a stride of his long legs, he resumed walking.

Shen Yanzhi returned to his residence.

Perhaps because he had attended the birthday party, the first thing Shen Yanzhi did upon returning was head to the bathroom to shower.

As usual, Chi Yu was left on the living room sofa.

Sticking close to Shen Yanzhi day and night, Chi Yu had long since figured out his bathing routine.

Each time he showered, he would also brush his teeth and wash his hair, cleaning and grooming himself meticulously. He would even blow-dry his hair inside before coming out, the whole process taking nearly half an hour.

When the sound of running water echoed from the bathroom, the phone on the sofa lit up. Chi Yu swiftly unlocked it using the lock screen password.

With practiced ease, Chi Yu found the QQ browser, typed the keywords [Capital Su family finds lost daughter], and searched.

Instantly! Over a hundred search results appeared on the screen!

Without exception, they were all articles reported and shared by major media outlets!

Chi Yu skimmed through all this information within mere seconds, quickly piecing together what had recently happened to Chen Jiazhi.

Chen Jiazhi had been found by the Su family the day after Chi Yu’s death.

On the very day her identity was confirmed, Chen Jiazhi was taken back by the Su family.

These past few days, the news of Chen Jiazhi being the true Young Miss of the wealthiest family had topped the trending charts on major social platforms—not just Weibo and Douyin, but even the QQ browser’s hot search list was dominated by this story.

Among the browser search results, one was a link to Douyin. Even without clicking, Chi Yu could see the displayed information of Chen Jiazhi’s Douyin account.
