A vain, self-serving, pretty fool × a gloomy, insecure ghost of a man
[Reverse transmigration into a book | Devoted couple | Rental-apartment romance]
Lin Xi was a shallow woman.
She loved luxury, clung to the powerful, and dreamed of landing a rich husband.
For money, she stopped at nothing to scheme her way into marrying Lu Huanyuan.
On the day of her pregnancy checkup, an outsider took over her body.
The transmigrator wore her face, wreaked havoc, seduced her childhood friend, and tormented Lu Huanyuan, leaving disaster in her wake.
The wealthy family was gone, their child was being raised by someone else, and her husband had gone from the proud, untouchable young master of the Lu family to a gloomy, insecure rat of a man.
And he wanted to kill her.
To stay alive, Lin Xi had no choice but to cling to her husband's side. She sold her hair to buy him a phone, set up a stall to help with household expenses, and worked odd jobs to buy him a ring.
To keep Lu Huanyuan by her side, she put on the nightgown the transmigrator had left behind, dabbed on perfume, and waited happily for him to come home.
But Lu Huanyuan fell to his knees, his back hunched as he stared at the familiar yet foreign face, pleading through tears, word by word.
“Whoever you are, please leave her body.”
His voice broke, his eyes begging her. “Please, give me back my wife...”
Lin Xi's heart went completely cold.
She thought Lu Huanyuan loved the transmigrator who had occupied her body for four years.
Later, when the truth about her marriage-by-deception came to light, Lin Xi decided to flee their rental apartment and use the money to start a new life far away.
But Lu Huanyuan went mad and searched for her everywhere.
He cornered her at her door, pinned her against it, and kissed her, pleading over and over. “You deceived me, and I never blamed you. Keep deceiving me to the bitter end. Please, please don't abandon me...”
