Marrying a Returnee: The Glamorous Rich Girl of the 1980s

[Period Drama + Family Favorite + Transmigration into a Book + Melodrama + Face-Slapping + Metaphysics + One-on-One Romance]

Xu Ruoruo has transmigrated into a book again,

this time as a cannon-fodder character who serves as a complete foil to the heroine.

Once a bright and lovely child, she has become the famously obese girl of the surrounding villages.

She's not only lazy and greedy, but hopelessly lovesick, forever entangled with the scumbag men in the book.

Worse, the female antagonists repeatedly use her as a pawn, until everyone turns against her.

After becoming notorious and estranged from her family, she gradually loses her mind, gets abducted to a remote mountain village, and marries a lame carpenter, only to die in agony during childbirth.

What kind of ridiculous plot is this?

Xu Ruoruo looks at her enormous, greasy-faced reflection in the mirror and wants to tear the original owner to shreds.

She worked so hard to defy fate, only to end up right back where she started.

To hell with all those men! Get lost!

Xu Ruoruo gets her life together, works out, and focuses on her career. Before long, her round face is looking prettier and prettier, and her skin is smooth and radiant.

Her father wipes away tears and snot in his excitement, while her brothers begin glaring menacingly at the men milling around outside their door.

Seeing the Xu family prosper more and more, plenty of people grow jealous and bitter: What good is being pretty? It's better to marry well.

Then the city's secretary-general comes in person to pick someone up, and the elegant, aloof man in the car smiles at Xu Ruoruo with all the tenderness in the world.

Uh...

Isn't that the important figure the leader personally received on TV just the other day?
