Reborn: Mob Queen at 18

“BOOM ——!” Blazing fire devoured every corner of the abandoned warehouse. The scorching heat curled Yu Jin’s hair, and her skin burned with a tearing agony. She leaned against the cold iron door, the dagger in her chest still trembling slightly. Blood soaked through her black leather jacket, pooling into a winding stream on the ground. “Sister, don’t blame us… Blame it on you standing in the way of too many people.” The voice of her trusted subordinate, A Kun, dripped with feigned regret. Beside him stood the leader of the rival Green Dragon Gang, both wearing grins of triumph. Yu Jin, the queen of the underworld who had reigned for a decade, had built her “Jin Huo Tang” to monopolize half the city’s gray industries. She never imagined she would fall to a joint plot by her most trusted deputy and her old nemesis. As her consciousness faded, she saw A Kun raise his gun. The muzzle flash blazed sharply in the darkness. “If I am reborn, I will make you all… pay with your blood!” With overwhelming hatred and despair, she plunged into endless darkness. …… “Ugh…” Her head throbbed as if she’d been struck by a heavy hammer. Yu Han jolted awake. What greeted her was not the hellfire of the underworld, but a yellowed ceiling and a pink lace curtain hanging by the bed. A strange room, a strange scent, and this body… so frail it seemed it would snap at a single touch. She struggled to sit up and looked down at her hands —— slender, pale, with knuckles tinged an unhealthy bluish white. These were not the hands that had held guns for years, calloused and strong. A small mirror sat on the nightstand. Trembling, Yu Han picked it up. The reflection showed a young, tender face: delicate features clouded by deep cowardice, pale skin, chapped lips, and a bruise still fresh on her forehead. This was not her! “Yu Han, 18 years old, Class 7, Senior 3 at Yuying High School. Lives with her father after her parents’ divorce. Her stepmother is cruel, her father is a compulsive gambler, and she is constantly bullied by a gang of thugs on campus…” A flood of unfamiliar memories surged into her mind, clashing with her own, sending a splitting pain through her skull. She, Yu Jin, had actually been reborn? Reborn into a high school girl who shared her name (the original owner was also called Yu Han) but had a tragic fate? At that moment, the door was kicked open with a loud “Bang!” A middle-aged man in a floral shirt, with a fleshy face, stormed in —— it was Yu Guoliang, the original owner’s father. “You little b***h, what are you still lying there for? Hurry up and get that gold bracelet your mom left! I’m going to win it all back tonight!” Yu Guoliang grabbed Yu Han by the hair, his eyes fierce. In the past, the old Yu Han would have trembled and begged for mercy. But now, the soul of the underworld queen Yu Jin inhabited this body. A cold glint flashed in Yu Han’s eyes. She twisted her father’s wrist with a backhand grip, hard! “Ahhh ——!” A scream like a slaughtered pig rang out. Yu Guoliang’s face turned pale with pain, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He stared at his daughter in disbelief. The cowardly rabbit of before had dared to fight back? “How dare you touch what’s mine?” Yu Han’s voice was icy, devoid of any warmth. The ruthlessness in her eyes made Yu Guoliang shudder involuntarily. She slowly let go. Yu Guoliang stumbled back a few steps, clutching his swollen wrist, and glared at her viciously: “You… you’ve gone too far! Wait till your stepmother gets her hands on you!” With that, he fled the room in a panic. Yu Han rubbed her sore scalp, her gaze dark. The original owner’s life had been utterly miserable. But from today on, she was Yu Han, the master of this body. Those who had bullied the original owner, those who owed her blood debt —— she would collect it all, one by one! She threw off the covers, got out of bed, and walked to the desk, picking up the original owner’s schoolbag. Inside, besides a few tattered textbooks, was a crumpled report card with almost all grades at the bottom of the class. “Yuying High School…” A cold smile tugged at Yu Han’s lips. “Very well. Let’s start here, and lay out the board anew.” Though her old business resources and network were temporarily out of reach, her mind, her methods, her vision —— all remained. This high school campus was merely the first move on her path of revenge and the rebuilding of her empire. And those who betrayed her —— the Green Dragon Gang, A Kun… you wait. Yu Han is back. This time, it’s your turn to fall into hell!
