[Marriage First, Love Later + Daughter’s Inner Thoughts + Supporting Female Lead Awakens + Secret Crush Becomes Mutual]
In the fourth year of her marriage to her archenemy, Chi Shu was forced to adopt a daughter. One day, by accident, she heard the girl’s inner thoughts.
In her previous life, the girl had been a wannabe delinquent who fell for a bleach-haired punk. Now she had been reborn with the story in hand, and all she wanted was to coast through life as a useless rich-family parasite.
From Fu Yingying’s thoughts, Chi Shu learned that she was merely a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a story about a domineering tycoon and a pair of real and fake heiresses. She was the evil fake heiress’s enemy-turned-best-friend, hurting the heroine early on and betraying her frenemy later.
[Good grief, we’re a family of villains!]
[My mom is the story’s evil female cannon fodder.]
[My dad is the biggest male villain. First he competes with the male lead for business, then he fights the male and female leads over a woman.]
[And of course, in the end, we all die, every last one of us.]
Chi Shu was scared half to death. She didn’t want to die at all.
So she became a total “daughter slave,” following every instruction.
Fu Yingying thought: [My mom’s parents are both biased idiots. As if favoring boys over girls weren’t bad enough, they sacrificed my mom to pave the way for their son. That’s a big part of why my mom dies later.]
So Chi Shu took down her biased parents and crushed her spoiled little brother.
Fu Yingying thought: [That scumbag tricked my mom into falling for him, then conned her into eloping, only to sell her into a mountain village where she spent years feeding wild boars. When she was finally brought back, she’d lost her mind.]
So Chi Shu kicked the scumbag to the curb and put an end to her lovesick ways.
When she’d achieved success, she planned to grab the money and run.
Faced with the man’s divorce agreement, she was just about to sign.
Fu Yingying: [What a shame. Early in the story, Dad had a secret crush on Mom.]
Chi Shu looked up and saw the expressionless man, whose hand was trembling a little.

What should I do if my archenemy has a secret crush on me?
