【Transmigrate into a book as the villain + broken engagement and face-slapping + one female lead + older woman-younger man romance】
Cheng Yue transmigrated into a novel as a rich second-generation villain. When he opened his eyes, he was sitting at his fiancée’s birthday banquet.
On the table lay an investment agreement for three million. If he signed it, the money would go to the man his fiancée truly loved: Fang Zhe, the novel’s male lead. Everyone at the table expected him to pay up as usual. The group chat had even started a betting pool: he’d be back on his knees within three days.
Cheng Yue tore up the agreement in front of everyone and broke off the engagement on the spot.
The next day, he beat Fang Zhe to the punch and bought the seaside white house Fang Zhe had planned to use as the foundation of his success, paying in full.
In the original novel, the Cheng family would be dragged into a disastrous scheme three months later, leaving the family ruined and scattered. Xu Jianing, his ex-fiancée’s older sister, would be cast as the “evil sister,” and her company would be crushed by her younger sister and the male lead working together.
This time, Cheng Yue moved first to dismantle the scheme, and made the first move in pursuing her, too.
She was four years older than him, dazzling and competitive, never going easy on anyone at pool, and carrying an entire company on her shoulders.
The two families had arranged a reconciliation dinner, expecting him to apologize to his former fiancée in front of everyone. Cheng Yue walked in holding Xu Jianing’s hand.
She pulled out the chair beside her. “Cheng Yue, sit with me.”
