They wrote her off as missing. They crowned her killer in her place Hazel wakes to find a decade stolen, her real mother gone, her enemy in power. She died a victim once. Now she lives as vengeance itself.

After being murdered by her enemy Song Yan, protagonist Jiang Sui is reborn as Song Yan's 6-year-old daughter, Xu Jin Xia. In the mansion, she confronts Song Yan, who pretends to be a loving mother, and her deceived adoptive father, Xu Jin Chuan. When Xu Jin Chuan scolds Song Yan for a small injury on Jiang Sui's hand, Jiang Sui (Xu Jin Xia) seizes the opportunity. Using her identity as a child, she cries to her father, claiming she was startled and fell after seeing a "big dark shadow." This successfully plants a seed of doubt in Xu Jin Chuan's mind and throws the secretly adulterous Song Yan into a panic, thus kicking off Jiang Sui's revenge plan.

In this episode, the protagonist, reborn as Xu Jin Xia, orchestrates a plan to lure her adoptive father, Xu Jin Chuan, into discovering the affair between her birth mother, Song Yan, and her lover, Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan narrowly escapes, but Xu Jin Chuan's suspicions are aroused, and he sees through Song Yan's lies. Song Yan attempts to seduce Xu Jin Chuan by claiming pregnancy to deceive him, but is coldly rejected. Enraged, Song Yan lashes out at Xu Jin Xia, only to be stopped by Xu Jin Chuan in time. Xu Jin Chuan gently comforts his frightened daughter, while Xu Jin Xia inwardly plots her next move in her revenge plan. At the end, Xu Jin Xia relives the brutal scene of her murder in her past life during a nightmare. Upon waking in terror, she sees Song Yan by her bedside, her face contorted with extreme fear.

The protagonist, reborn as six-year-old girl Xu Jin Xia, confirms the passage of time and the changes in her world by calling her past life's mother, Chen Shu Yun. A disconnected number, news of her "disappearance" rather than "death" online, and the reality of her former home being demolished plunge her into a deep sense of powerlessness after a brief moment of comfort. She realizes she is trapped in a child's body and cannot reunite with her mother immediately. Finally, she turns her attention to her enemy, Song Yan, and resolves to use her new identity as "Miss Xu" to embark on a long-term revenge.

This episode opens with a flashback to the summer of 2016. Song Yan and Xu Jinchuan attend the birthday banquet of Grandma Shen Peilan, who has become the new matriarch of the Xie family, along with their young daughter, Xu Jin Xia. At the banquet, guests privately gossip about Shen Peilan's past as a mistress, which Xu Jin Xia overhears. Meanwhile, the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Chengyu, is bullying his younger brother, Xie Linchao. Xu Jin Xia witnesses all of this. After Xie Linchao is pushed down, she kindly extends a helping hand to him and takes him with her to escape Xie Chengyu's pursuit. This marks their fated first encounter.

This episode interweaves two timelines. In the past, a wealthy young girl, Jiang Sui (Sui Sui), encounters and helps a bullied boy (childhood Xie Linchao). She not only gives him food but also instills in him the concept of "enduring hardship to grow stronger, then seeking revenge." In the present, the two children hide under a banquet table and accidentally overhear Jiang Sui's biological mother, Song Yan, and her maternal grandmother, Shen Peilan, plotting how to deal with a "living person." The conversation also mentions Song Yan's entanglement with a lover from the bankrupt Jiang family. This dialogue reveals the vicious nature of the mother and daughter and foreshadows future revenge.

In this episode, the reborn protagonist Xu Jin Xia, now a child, attempts to expose the affair between her nominal mother Song Yan and her lover Jiang Yan. She plans to catch them in the act during their rendezvous to undermine Song Yan's status as "Mrs. Xu." However, the unexpected return of her adoptive father, Xu Jin Chuan, interrupts their intimacy and thwarts Xu Jin Xia's plan. During a subsequent conversation, Xu Jin Xia is shocked to overhear that Song Yan and Jiang Yan are not only lovers but also her biological parents, and they are plotting to murder the entire Xu family and seize their fortune. This earth-shattering secret completely overturns Xu Jin Xia's understanding of reality.

Reborn as Xu Jin Xia, Jiang Sui accidentally discovers at a family gathering that she is not of the Xu family bloodline. She witnesses her mother Song Yan's affair with her lover Jiang Yan and their plot to seize the Xu family fortune. Considering her minor status and unfavorable position, Xu Jin Xia decides not to expose them for the time being. She calmly analyzes the situation, seeing her adoptive father Xu Jin Chuan as her only potential ally. That night, by discreetly placing a nail in her mother Song Yan's slipper, she officially launches her silent revenge plan, signaling the beginning of Song Yan's nightmare.

This episode uses cross-cutting between the present and the past to reveal a meticulously planned revenge. Adult Song Yan is repeatedly frightened by cockroaches, rats, and snakes in her life, which are the very methods she used to bully her classmate Jiang Sui during her school days. The scene shifts, revealing that the mastermind behind all this is her young daughter Xu Jin Xia—Jiang Sui, who has returned after reincarnation. Faced with Song Yan's breakdown, her husband Xu Jin Chuan appears extremely impatient and distrustful, scolding her for overreacting, leaving Song Yan in a state of helplessness. Meanwhile, the reborn Xu Jin Xia watches coldly from the shadows, her revenge plan showing initial success.

Song Yan, terrified by her daughter Xu Jin Xia's (reborn Jiang Sui) strange gaze, conspires with her mother Shen Peilan. Under the guise of studying abroad, they deceive her husband Xu Jin Chuan and send Xu Jin Xia away. At their farewell, Xu Jin Chuan places high hopes on his adopted daughter, while Song Yan secretly rejoices at sending away the "ungrateful child." Inside the car, Xu Jin Xia reveals her rebirth through inner monologue, vowing revenge on Song Yan. A long-drawn-out revenge plan is thus set in motion.

At the lavish birthday party of the villain Song Yan, the relationships between various characters begin to surface. Song Yan, outwardly the beloved Mrs. Xu, is in reality cold-blooded and shows no mercy to her old acquaintance Li Feifei, who comes to her for help. At the party, the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Chengyu, is full of hostility towards his illegitimate younger brother, Xie Linchao, who is favored by their grandfather. When guests mention Song Yan's daughter, Xu Jin Xia, who has been away for years, Song Yan falsely claims she will not return. However, at the end of this episode, the protagonist Jiang Sui, reborn as Xu Jin Xia, has quietly returned, carrying the determination for revenge, and confronts her enemy Song Yan head-on. A dramatic revenge is about to unfold.
