[Transmigrate Into a Book vs. Reborn] [Face-Slapping Fun] [Sweet Romance, No Angst]
After an accident, Lu Zhenzhen causes a huge commotion in the underworld and somehow transmigrates into a book as Lu Zhenzhen, a cannon-fodder character. She planned to lie flat for good, but from the start she's forced into a proxy marriage to bring good fortune to her husband.
On their wedding night, Lu Zhenzhen sees through Ye Jinyan's act of pretending to be ill at a glance, but she doesn't manage to strip away all his disguises. Following the principle that if she can't annoy him awake, she'll annoy him to death, Lu Zhenzhen lets herself go completely, causing trouble by day and holding ghostly rituals by night, turning the prince's manor into a complete mess.
It's no wonder Lu Zhenzhen is frustrated by her "desire" going unfulfilled in her married-but-single life. They're so poor she could qualify for welfare in the modern world. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and acquires it by honorable means, while a scoundrel loves money and has his own way of stealing it. Lu Zhenzhen pays tribute to popular pairings, borrows ideas from popular IPs, and juggles debt collection with starting a business. She'll use any means to make money, make money, make money!
By chance, Lu Zhenzhen discovers that the original owner's second sister, Lu Zhuozhuo, is reborn and clearly intends to follow a plot about defying fate and changing her destiny.
But here's the question: which fate is she defying? Whose destiny is she changing?
Could it be Lu Zhenzhen's? Good grief! She has principles, you know.
Principle one: Better to be a background character than to be broke.
Principle two: Better to be a widow than to be broke.
Principle three: Anyone who takes my money, even a relative, must die.
Despite being so obsessed with profit, she still manages to stir Ye Jinyan's heart.
But she only wants to bring her own money to the divorce, while he wants to make their fake marriage real. As they vie for power in the imperial court, they keep pulling each other in while carefully plotting every move.
They've written the divorce papers more than once, so will this marriage ever actually end???
