The Mob Queen Wants Straight A's

Jade Kane, the woman in power behind the Black Viper Group, was cold, powerful, and dominant in both the underworld and the legitimate world. But in an accident, she died while saving high school student Nina Sterling, who had been pushed off a rooftop. When Jade opened her eyes again, she had entered Nina's body. It turned out that Nina was the biological daughter of the Sterling family, who had been lost for many years and brought back from the countryside. Yet because of the constant scheming of the adopted daughter Sienna, Nina had long been rejected and bullied by her biological parents and brother, and was ultimately pushed down the stairs by Sienna herself. After inheriting the original host's memories, Jade decided to take back everything that belonged to Nina and make those who had hurt her pay. But having been given a second life, Jade was already tired of bloodshed and blades. Her greatest wish was actually to make up for the regret of never having attended college in herprevious life. Yet she soon discovered—this body ranked dead last in the entire grade. So the once-feared gang queen had to start over from basic courses, juggling SAT, GPA, and college applications while matching wits with her rebellious deskmate Jace Landon. From disliking each other to protecting and urging each other on, they gradually became the most special presence on each other's path of growth.Meanwhile, Jade's former trusted subordinates Hawk, Cole, and Ryan recognized their boss again, while her sister Maya, whom she had exiled overseas, and Ichiro, who had long coveted Black Viper, took advantage of her "death" to make a comeback. Sienna, moreover, joined forces with outside powers to fight for control of Black Viper for the sake of wealth and status.
