[Period Setting, Transmigrate into a Book + Scum Man and Supporting Female Lead Both Reborn + Satisfying Revenge + Scum Man Gets His Comeuppance]
Xia Xiulan transmigrates into a book, becoming a lovesick cannon-fodder character in an old-fashioned romance about a hopelessly devoted woman.
In the original story, the cannon fodder is fair-skinned and beautiful. She marries the male lead, bringing her wealth and technical skills with her, but unfortunately, the male lead and female lead are the real couple.
Xia Xiulan: ...Pah!
When she opens her eyes again, a handsome man with a perfect physique is lying beside her.
The good news: she has found a prize catch.
The bad news: he's the original story's ultimate lovesick second male lead, and she's still doomed to be a cannon-fodder character dumped at sea.
Shen Wenyuan is reborn. In this life, he intends to marry Xia Xiumei, who has skills and ability.
Shen Wenyuan says, “I have no choice. I have to take responsibility for Xiumei's reputation, but out of consideration for our past, I'll still look after you.”
“Don't waste your dowry supporting some poor nobody. Give it to me, and I'll make sure you never have to worry about food or clothes.”
Xia Xiulan can only laugh.
Who knew that the rough man rumored to be dirt poor would not only lay the very best at her feet, but also lead her into the ranks of the most powerful families?
Zhou Yu pins her against the bed. “I hear you want to be Wang Baochuan and dig for wild vegetables?”
Later, Shen Wenyuan kneels before Xia Xiulan. “Xiulan, I was wrong.”
Zhou Yu grabs him and tosses him aside. “If you're wrong, go face the wall and think about what you've done.”
Then he turns back and says in a deep, magnetic voice, “Wifey, our son says he wants a little sister.”
