After working herself to the bone for two years as a corporate drone after college, Tang Ruilin was force-fed alcohol at a banquet and died suddenly. When she woke up, she discovered she had transmigrated into the body of a baby still in her mother’s womb. And if that weren’t enough, she had become the wicked female supporting character in a novel.
According to the plot, her father would get hooked on gambling. The year her older brother was a high school senior, he would bring home the wife and daughter of a fallen comrade. Her father had only meant to look after his friend’s family, but when the mother and daughter saw how well the Tang family was doing, they began plotting against them.
One day, at the comrade’s wife’s deliberate instigation, her mother caught the two of them having an affair. She turned to run, but fell down the stairs while being chased and died. Her family never recovered from the tragedy: her brother performed poorly on his college entrance exams, her father became hopelessly addicted to gambling, and in the end, she and her brother helped him repay his debts until the family was ruined.
The original heroine was the daughter of her father’s deceased comrade. After the Tang family fell apart, she met the male lead, and the two of them went on to live carefree lives...
Now that Tang Ruilin had ended up here, she figured she had to save her family and herself. If the heroine tried to take advantage of her this time, she certainly wasn’t going to put up with it.
Tang Ruilin sharpened her knives and set her sights on the heroine, only to realize something was off. Why was her dear old dad so cold toward the heroine’s family? Why had her mother become so career-focused? And why was her brother nothing like the one in the book?
