[Clearheaded, Rational CEO Heroine VS Performative Personality Side Character + Ex-Husband Who Grovels to Win Her Back]
Meng Yunxian transmigrated into the story as the “replacement” wife and mistress of the household, forced to marry into the Marquis of Wu’an’s estate after her half-sister schemed to steal her betrothal.
The bad news: the marquis’s household was a mess, and the heir, Shen Shihan, was a rebellious playboy who would rather die than give up his “true love.”
The worse news: Lin Qianying, the concubine he called his “true love,” had also transmigrated!
Lin Qianying brought modern marketing to the inner household, singing pop songs and selling milk tea. She loudly proclaimed, “One lifetime, one partner,” and had the heir utterly besotted, viewing Meng Yunxian as a feudal relic.
Meng Yunxian pushed up the nonexistent glasses on her nose and smiled calmly.
Competing for a man? How low-class.
The heir was so led astray by his concubine that he had no ambition? Meng Yunxian drew up “Five Years of Imperial Exams, Three Years of Practice Tests” and pushed him until he became the top scholar.
Her stepmother wanted to bleed her dry? Meng Yunxian tied her to her own interests, turning her stepmother into her number-one enforcer.
Just as Meng Yunxian decided she had saved enough money, raised her younger brother, and helped the heir make something of himself, and was preparing to pack up and find a good man to marry...
The whole family fell into chaos.
Her mother-in-law clung to her leg. “Yunxian, how will the marquis’s household manage if you leave?”
Her younger brothers blocked the doorway. “Anyone who dares mistreat our elder sister will have to answer to the swords in our hands!”
Even the heir, who had once looked down on her, waited meekly at the door. “My lady, what if we void that divorce letter? I’ll gladly be your kept man!”
Meng Yunxian glanced at the prince behind her, who wore an amused smile. “I’m afraid that won’t do.”
