(Transmigrate into a Book + Playing the Fool While Hiding Her Strength + Face-Slapping Queen + Love After Marriage + Wild Imagination)
Meng Po, who has spent a thousand years brewing soup, transmigrates into a book and becomes the cannon-fodder ex-wife in a male-led novel.
The ex-wife is timid, helpless, and all alone.
Meng Po curses heaven, earth, and the King of Hell, and is a master of every skill under the sun.
She eats her fill during the day, sleeps soundly in the evening, then sets up a pot at midnight to brew soup for all comers.
One sip makes you forget your past; another makes you forget love and desire.
A sip on the left severs family ties and affection; a sip on the right sends you straight off to reincarnate.

The disabled tycoon transmigrates into a book too, becoming the all-powerful magnate he created in his own novel.
His wife, who was supposed to be the cannon-fodder ex-wife, suddenly rises to power.
She swindles money, vies for attention, tattles, plays helpless, and fights. She's a different person every time you see her.
Before he can figure out what's going on, he's bound to a Favoritism System. If he wants to live to a ripe old age, he has to win his wife's wholehearted love.
But...
At midnight, his cannon-fodder wife is standing over a huge pot, holding a big ladle. The firelight is eerie as she mutters to herself.
It looks like she's about to stew her husband!

The couple's daily conversations:
Tycoon: Aren't you supposed to be cannon fodder? Why aren't you playing your part?
Meng Po: Fresh soup, straight from the pot. Want a sip?
Tycoon: You can't possibly be human! What are you?
Meng Po: Take a sip and I'll tell you!
Tycoon: What kind of soup is this?
Meng Po: Drink it and you'll find out.
Tycoon: I drank it. It tastes a little strange... Were we family a thousand years ago?
Meng Po: ? Did the Meng Po soup expire?
She takes a sip.
Meng Po: Huh, we really were family a thousand years ago!

The King of Hell smacks his thigh.
I didn't see that coming! My free laborer is here to demand back pay!
