The Villainess Became a Coward After Rebirth

Everyone knew that Yan Tu, the business titan who ruled the corporate world with an iron fist, had a face more breathtaking than any A-list actress.

But it wasn’t her looks that truly awed people—it was her ruthless decisiveness and the immense wealth and power backing her. Industry heavyweights thought twice before challenging her, preferring to fall in line instead.

Yet few knew the truth of her early years. Born into a wealthy family, Yan Tu had endured years of bullying and oppression from her own kin:

A vicious stepmother,

Sisters who treated her like a dog, bossing her around and mocking her endlessly,

A father who watched it all with cold indifference…

Once she clawed her way to power, not one of them got off lightly!

Joy and excitement surged through her, only to be drowned out by despair—for she was none other than the venomous older sister who had tormented Yan Tu!

The original sinner herself, no doubt about it!

Oh god, now thrust back into her sixteen-year-old body, she had already abused Yan Tu in body and soul, offending her beyond redemption! What was she supposed to do now?

Shen Xiluo, armed with the secrets of her past life, decided: It was too late to grovel and latch onto her thigh. Better to chicken out and keep her distance…

Yan Tu: “Nah, beatings are affection, scoldings are love. Round it all off, and it’s basically love, Luo-jie.”

Shen Xiluo: “…”

Yan Tu: “Luo-jie, why haven’t you reached out to me lately?”

The twenty-eight-year-old Shen Xiluo looked gravely serious. “President Yan, you’re swamped with a million things every day. How could a nobody like me dare bother you?”

Yan Tu: “Not bothering me is just you being thoughtful. Round it all off, and it’s basically love, Luo-jie.”

Shen Xiluo: “…”
