[Theatrical transmigrator into a book x scheming crown prince]
Lin Ruanruan transmigrates into the role of a vicious ex-girlfriend. The moment she opens her eyes, she's calling Shen Yan, who's gone bankrupt, a pauper.
According to the original plot, the crown prince, who will soon be reclaimed by his wealthy family, throws her onto the highway, where a homeless man cuts her down with a knife.
So she switches on her acting skills: she complains about being broke, plays the victim, and works three jobs to "support him," while secretly making millions with inside information about his future stocks.
Until Shen Yan is reclaimed by his wealthy family and pulls her into his arms in front of everyone. "All these years, she's the only one who never abandoned me."
Lin Ruanruan: ??? That's not how the script goes!
Later, she discovers that Shen Yan knew all along that she had transmigrated, and that every penny she made on the stock market was money he'd personally fed her.
The man pins her against the glass facade of the New York Stock Exchange and chuckles. "Ruanruan, you can swindle my money, but after you're done, trying to run away... That's not allowed."
