Republican era / Newspaper office / Extra edition / Truth / Stand-in marriage / Dual transmigration
Shen Zhiwei woke up one day and transmigrated to Shanghai in 1931. From the start, she found herself in a funeral hall. The next moment, she was told:
She had to take someone else’s place in a marriage.
Her fiancé, Lu Tingzhou, was the young heir to a Shanghai newspaper office, a man of complicated reputation and deep cunning.
On their wedding night, they tested each other. She said, “Odd functions match, even functions don’t.” He froze for a long moment, then replied, “The signs depend on the quadrant.”
Good.
There were actually two transmigrators in this engagement.
Before long, Shanghai began to notice something strange:
The Lu family’s newspaper office was changing.
A female worker fell into a well, foreign firms smuggled goods, a patrol officer changed his testimony, and an old case involving a sunken ship at the docks resurfaced… Every story that had been suppressed was printed in an extra edition.
Some people threatened them. Someone set the newspaper office on fire.
But at dawn, the extra editions still flew across the entire city.
“Whoever prints the facts gets to decide what’s true.” They were determined to make sure
The truth was printed first.
