[Quick transmigration + face-slapping + no more misery + subverting the substitute trope + anyone who abuses the heroine gets sent packing!]
If you had the chance to play the substitute in an angst-filled novel, what would you do?
Would you use your gentleness, patience, love, and ability to take a beating to “redeem” a scumbag man?
Or would you sacrifice your money, connections, heart, liver, kidneys, and all your grievances to “make dumplings” with a family of awful people?
Yu Jingyue's choice: send them all packing!
Anyone who makes me suffer gets slapped away!
Anyone who tries to kill me gets crushed!
Scumbag men, women, and parents, not one of you is getting away!
I can be a substitute, but I won't take a single ounce of abuse!
[World One] Scumbag marquis: “You should be grateful to resemble Wanwan! Hurry up and become my substitute concubine so I can beat and berate you!”
Yu Jingyue: “I'll take the scumbag man, scumbag woman, and scumbag dad as a package. Now accept the punishment of your grandaunt and the law!”
[World Two] Scumbag CEO: “Don't think you can go from sparrow to phoenix just because you look like Mingzhu! Once your job as a substitute is done, you better get lost, or I'll make sure you can't survive!”
Yu Jingyue: “Please, she's my biological sister! It's getting cold. Your family's about to go bankrupt. And now I'm the one who's going to make sure you can't survive!”
[World Three] Scumbag school bully: “Everyone has to bully Yu Jingyue. Anyone who helps her is against me! I'll make her kneel and beg like a dog!”
Yu Jingyue: “Not happening, kid. Your grandaunt's not doing that! You're not a rich second-generation heir anymore. You're the first generation to be poor. Now get crawling!”
And so, our Yu Jingyue played the substitute while teaching scumbags how to behave.
Whoops! How did she end up building an empire and becoming a big shot?
