She didn't understand why her grandfather, who had always been kind to her, kept asking her to back down, nor did she understand why her father treated her this way time and time again.
After her inheritance rights were taken away, Lin Ying completely snapped. She began to hate her younger sister, Lin Rong, who had stolen everything from her, and she resented her father's favoritism.
She started going crazy, causing trouble in every way possible. Later, she went to great lengths to kill Lin Rong, even once cornering her at the beach, but Lin Rong still managed to return safely.
Later, Lin Ying stopped making a fuss because she realized that her grandfather had been cleaning up her messes. Seeing how old her grandfather was, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Lin Ying had never lacked food or drink since childhood. Even during the three years of famine in the 1960s, she ate very well every day. She didn't care much about material possessions; she was just unwilling to accept her fate.

That year, she witnessed many people being paraded through the streets with placards hung on their heads, and having their vegetable leaves smashed. Even her grandfather had been sent to the countryside; what awaited her, the capitalist's granddaughter?
Having lost all hope of survival, she swallowed the poison.
Hearing people talk about her grandfather, Lin Ying suddenly struggled to get up.
But suddenly a bright light appeared before her eyes, and something that looked like a gold brick suddenly hit her on the forehead.
