Jade Pendant Space: The Substitute Bride's Comeback as a Military Wife

After dying suddenly from overwork, modern office worker Su Qingyue opens her eyes to find she has become the cannon-fodder character in a novel who shares her name: a girl mistreated by her adoptive parents and forced to marry an army officer in her stepsister’s place. The original Su Qingyue was beaten and humiliated, then died in a woodshed. Now she has become the new owner of this dying body.
