What Era Is This? Who Still Writes Angsty Romance Like That?

Cheng Shanshan transmigrates into an old-fashioned, angsty CEO romance novel as the tragic heroine who gets put through the wringer.

The book may not have terrifying scenes of people having their kidneys, livers, and other organs carved out, but just thinking about how the heroine ends up in the hospital every few days, and how the romance between the leads progresses mostly through hospital visits, makes Cheng Shanshan panic and struggle to breathe.

A wicked mother-in-law’s torment, a troublemaking sister-in-law’s unreasonable antics, a ruthless green-tea younger sister scheming to steal her husband, a mother so biased she’d bend over backward for her favorite, and a CEO husband who’s blind to everything and everyone: Cheng Shanshan pinches her philtrum.

Oh, and on top of all that, there’s the classic CEO-novel staple of men turning into horny dogs on the spot and disregarding women’s wishes.

Damn it, she can’t put up with this plot.

If you ask her, she’d rather be the villain than a pure, innocent little white flower who gets abused.

So she decides to take a fortune, leave her icy CEO husband, and divorce him while carrying his baby. Along the way, she’ll psychologically manipulate the CEO into working hard and making a fortune for her son.

She thinks she can finally live a carefree, happy life, but she never expects love to arrive so suddenly.

In the end, her eldest son is recognized by his birth family and inherits her ex-husband’s business, while her second son inherits her current husband’s business. Somehow, both business empires end up in her sons’ hands.

Now that’s the peak of life. Amazing~~
