(Transmigrate into a book + period setting + food and raising kids + transmigrated heroine vs. reborn heroine + taming powerful men + college entrance exams + pregnant escape + winning back his wife)
After transmigrating into a book as a disfigured, amnesiac cannon-fodder character, she opens her mouth to curse and gets hit with a System’s curse: she is guaranteed to suffer the consequences.
Jiang Rui gets a hellish start: her interview for a nanny job goes disastrously wrong.
Facing Gu Yan, a no-nonsense factory director and army veteran, her flattery comes out as, “You’re sick! Your wife ran away because she couldn’t stand you!”
“You want me gone? Ha! I’ll stay right here and eat your food.”
As the man furiously grabs her by the throat, Jiang Rui lies flat in a flash. “I’m fainting~”
Gu Yan sneers. “...”
“Hehe~ I was faking it~”
The consequences come down hard.
By day, she becomes the dedicated snack dispenser for a five-year-old: “Mom! Fries! Fried chicken! Donuts!”
By night, she withstands the scrutiny of the big factory director, rumored to be sick:
“A country nanny who can drive, speak ABC, and dance the city ballroom dances? Who are you, really?”
Unexpectedly pregnant with his child, Jiang Rui decides to leave the father behind and raise the baby herself, making a fortune along the way.
Three years later, in the capital, Jiang Rui’s bakery is thriving, but her darling daughter has gone missing.
As she frantically searches, her little girl is being held tight by a boy who looks just like Gu Yan:
“Don’t be scared, little sister. That’s my dad. We have a factory, and there’s enough candy and chocolate to last a lifetime.”
Food tycoon Gu Yan corners Jiang Rui with their son in tow.
The boy thumps his chest. “Dad’s problem is all better. He’s super reliable now. Please give Mom another chance!”
Gu Yan steps closer. “For the kids, why don’t we get married?”
Jiang Rui hugs her daughter close and waves a freshly baked, fragrant loaf of bread. “Ha! A man? Can he smell better than this?”
