A high-ranking diplomat from the 21st century transmigrates into a novel as the early-deceased ex-wife of the heroine’s older brother. The original owner was eighteen and had just graduated from high school. Her mother had stubbornly put her through school, and if not for the policies of the time, she might even have made it to university. To attach herself to the powerful, she deliberately trapped her cousin’s comrade-in-arms into taking responsibility for her. Even after marrying him, she wouldn’t behave, causing trouble day after day. Her husband left on their wedding night and didn’t come back for two years. He sent her his regular monthly wages without ever saying a word to her. The original owner made a huge fuss about joining him in the army, but a human trafficker stabbed her to death on the train. And so a 21st-century diplomat transmigrated into the powerful man’s ill-fated first wife. Looking at the bridal chamber decorated with red double-happiness characters, her kind but distant parents-in-law, the heroine with a sharp tongue and a soft heart, and her arrogant, sarcastic younger brother-in-law, she also had to deal with a doting mother, a useless father, a selfish older brother, and a shrewd yet honest younger brother. She immediately boarded a train to the army base to ask for a divorce. The moment the powerful man saw how much his wife had changed, the heart he had kept forbidden for thirty years began to beat. But the first thing she said was, “I’m here to divorce you.” She thought it would be over quickly and amicably, but the moment she mentioned divorce, the powerful man’s eyes turned red. He tore up the divorce petition she had submitted, and from then on, the cold military officer became her devoted puppy. He pinned her against the wall with his broad frame and said in a menacing voice, “There’s no divorce here. The only way out is for one of us to die.” The diplomat raised an eyebrow and said nothing. The powerful man’s eyes were full of pleading. “Don’t leave. I’ll give you my life.”
“Oh, look at that lazy wife from the Qi family, making her husband do the laundry again.”
“My goodness, the Qi family’s daughter-in-law had twins, a boy and a girl!”
“Have you heard? The Qi family’s daughter-in-law earns over a thousand a month.”
It feels like neither the male protagonist nor the female protagonist takes the life of the original protagonist seriously.
