Lin Pengpeng thinks her life couldn't get any worse. Her father hates her, her legitimate mother hates her, her father's concubines hate her, her siblings hate her, her servants hate her. Hell, even the peach tree in her courtyard hates her! While simply strolling along one of the family's residence gardens, her sister suddenly comes and "accidentally" pushes her to her demise in the lake.
Or was it?!
Lo and forth! Because the previously trash fourth miss of the Lin family had turned into the unfathomable, the inexplicable, the heaven-defying 211st century godly assassin/doctor/poison-maker/cultivator/farmer of the same name with beauty that bewitches any top-tier man from the nine heavens!
Want to scheme against her? Hmph! She'll scheme against the schemes you make to scheme against the schemes she makes!
Or that's how it was supposed to be...
In this timeline, it was the same trash Lin Pengpeng that woke up!
Unable to repossess her body this time, the unfathomable, inexplicable, heaven-defying 211st century godly assassin/doctor/poison-maker/cultivator/farmer of the same name with beauty that bewitches any top-tier man from the nine heavens had no choice but ascend to her next life.
Faced with greater adversity that usually happened after her death, as a certain imperial guest suddenly welcomes himself inside the house and asks for marriage, the trembling Lin Pengpeng could only agree after she was fished off the cold water, effectively changing everything.

It'll be easy, she says! It'll be fine, she says!
Doesn't she only say that because she's not the one doing the damn job?!
Thrusted into the blank space along with my cheap creator, a being of divinity and resplendence suddenly appears to make an unexpected request.
