When Shen Zhenzhen wakes up, she discovers she’s living inside a book, a business-focused story about the richest man in Rongcheng. As a minor cannon-fodder character in a novel with two male leads, she is the wife of one of the live-in son-in-law protagonists, yet she’s infatuated with the other, a rich heir. In the end, she dies a miserable death in a car accident. The two male leads fight each other to the death, while the Shen family becomes a pawn in the battle of her nominal husband. The original heroine is an award-winning actress and her husband’s childhood sweetheart, and she has both men wrapped around her little finger.
Shen Zhenzhen has never felt so aggrieved. Even a cannon-fodder character has some dignity. But she never expected her husband to have been secretly in love with her all along.
Why isn’t he following the plot? Weren’t they supposed to care about money, not feelings?
Ji Yuanzhou had a lonely childhood. He grew up without a father, raised by his widowed mother, and suffered plenty of bullying. Later, he met a pretty little girl, and thanks to financial support from Grandpa Shen, he was able to continue his education. After graduating, he never expected Grandpa Shen to ask him to marry his granddaughter. Thinking of that little girl, Ji Yuanzhou agreed without hesitation. He was willing to take on the responsibility and look after her.
The girl was spoiled, and he was too tongue-tied to express himself. That didn’t matter. He would show it through his actions. What’s yours is yours, and what’s mine is yours too. The baby will take your surname, and the house will be in your name.
In short, I’m your manager, and you’re my boss.
A plea in their previous life brings them a happy ending in this one!
[Cold on the outside, warm on the inside, poker-faced male lead] VS [Delicate, willful, sharp-tongued female lead]
