Gan Wei transmigrates into a book, becoming the male lead’s “ex” in a wealthy-family romance.
In the book, this ex only has two scenes: one where she cries as he breaks up with her, and another at the wedding in the finale, where she causes a scene and the male lead has her escorted out in front of everyone. Then she’s gone for good.
A dignified ending.
Gan Wei frowns as she reads it and realizes something is wrong. Where’s the breakup payout?
She searches the whole book, but there’s no breakup payout.
That won’t do.
The first thing she does after arriving is find the male lead, Dong Yingying, and talk money.
“If you’re going to break up with me, you have to offer me something.”
Dong Yingying: “...”
“I suggest we sit down and talk this breakup payout through properly.”
Dong Yingying: “I never said I wanted to break up.”
Gan Wei: “...”
“But the book says you’re going to break up with me.”
As soon as she says it, she realizes she’s let the secret slip.
She scrambles to cover it up. “I mean, our relationship has reached this point. A breakup is only a matter of time.”
Dong Yingying looks at her slowly, like she’s a strange problem he can’t solve.
“You’ve been acting really strange lately.”
Gan Wei: “I’m normal.”
“Would a normal person keep a notebook of breakup compensation rates?”
Gan Wei closes the notebook. “It’s my diary.”
[An ex-girlfriend romance, one-on-one, both leads have no past relationships, happy ending, she wants money, he wants her. Their push and pull is dangerously addictive.]
