The Antique's Whisper
In 1900, the Sakura people stormed the imperial palace, looting and killing. They seized every antique they could carry and smashed what they couldn’t—including the Blue Glazed Rabbit-Head Double-Eared Vase, which was shattered but unexpectedly reincarnated 300 years later into the body of Joy, an outcast in her own family. Before she could even adjust to her human form, her stepsister, Nina, bullied her. But this time, Joy fought back using her mystical abilities. Determined to reunite with her antique "sisters," Joy discovered they were scattered thousands of miles away, and retrieving them would require a fortune. She ventured into the antique market to hunt for hidden treasures and made a bet with Nick, the local "King of Bargains," winning over 100 million in the process. At the same time, she unlocked a new ability—absorbing the spiritual energy from antiques and converting it into mystical power. After earning her fortune, Joy returned home, only to face her family’s hostility once again. This time, she refused to back down, standing up for her original host’s dignity. By chance, she learned that auctions could bring in even greater wealth, so she threw herself into the high-stakes world of bidding. At the auction, Joy faced relentless sabotage from her stepsister but effortlessly countered every move. In the process, she unexpectedly crossed paths with Sean, the wealthiest man in the country. Together, they dominated the auction, becoming the biggest winners of the night—much to her stepsister’s fury. Joy had the money; Sean had the influence. They joined forces for mutual success. Beyond business, Joy helped Sean purge the deceitful schemers around him, saving his nearly bankrupt company, G Group, from collapse. Along the way, they grew closer, falling in love—until Joy’s spirit was inevitably drawn back into her original form: the vase. Their story ended in tragedy. Sean searched for Joy obsessively, nearly losing his mind, until one day, he found the Blue Glazed Rabbit-Head Double-Eared Vase in a museum. He stared at it for a long time... and the vase shed a single tear. And so, their tale came to an end.
