His Beloved Wife Runs Off with Their Child, and the Army Chief Regrets It Night After Night

[1970s + military marriage + married first, love later + devoted couple + clear-headed, independent heroine + cold-faced, warm-hearted officer + spatial dimension + adorable kids]

Xie Wenyun opened her eyes and found she had transmigrated into a book! She had become the villainous ex-wife of a future senior officer, the woman who stood between the beautiful, capable but tragic heroine Jiang Ai and the male lead, Jin Beiyan. In the original story, she would die on the operating table from massive bleeding during childbirth.

The day after her death, Jin Beiyan would submit a marriage application with Jiang Ai, the heroine of the novel. They would have two children in three years, and his career would soar. Jiang Ai was also the novel's lucky charm: she would unexpectedly find the family heirloom jade pendant belonging to the original owner, who had died young, gain access to a spatial dimension, and thrive as a result. By contrast, even years after her death, people would still curse Xie Wenyun.

Now that she had transmigrated into a book, why should she have to die?

Divorce! This marriage had to end!

Freed from the shackles of love, Xie Wenyun finally let loose and used her golden finger to put all her skills to work. She wouldn't rely on men or cozy up to the powerful. With her own two hands, she built a fortune, made a name for herself, and became an independent powerhouse everyone envied.

The male lead suddenly realized his moonlight wasn't so special after all, and began the long road to winning her back.

“Wifey, can we not get divorced? I'm begging you.”

“Wifey, can you come home? I miss you so much I can't sleep.”

“Sweetheart, can I please stop sleeping on the floor tonight? Look at these broad shoulders, narrow waist, and eight-pack abs!”

Rumor had it around the family compound that Regiment Commander Jin was henpecked, his wife was a tigress, and when he got home at night, he had to kneel on a washboard and wash her feet.

Regiment Commander Jin: “Don't talk nonsense. My wife is as delicate and lovely as a flower.”
