[Sweet and bittersweet romance + the regretful pursuit of an ex-wife + the return of the first love]
In the novel, Ruan Xu is a woman who transmigrates into a book. She has a group-wide conquest mission.
In the morning, she flirts with a scheming younger man; at noon, she bats her eyes at her first love; in the afternoon, she gets hot and heavy with her perverted boss.
The only one she treats with cold severity is her husband, Shen Xunzhi, whom she cheats out of his house and money.
But after a car accident, the original Ruan Xu regains control of her body.
Her memories are stuck at age twenty, when she dropped out of school to pay off debts. The woman who transmigrated into the book keeps shouting.
“Don’t think you can have a good life just because you’ve taken back control of your body!”
“Those men love me!”
“Even your husband will divorce you immediately if he finds out you’re not me anymore.”
Ruan Xu knows. She obediently waits for that day to come.
She waits for Shen Xunzhi to discover the truth, get angry, and leave her. But she waits and waits...
Until at last, anxiety overwhelms her and she packs her bags and leaves on her own.
Shen Xunzhi corners her in the airport restroom, his eyes red-rimmed. Gripping her waist, he speaks into her ear in a broken voice.
“What the hell do you want from me? I’ve already taken care of all your lovers. Why won’t you leave them? Why do you have to leave me? Why!”
