[Spoiled Legitimate Daughter x Unhinged Top Scholar]
On her first day after transmigrating into a book, Su Yaoyao understands the doomed ending perfectly.
She's the notorious spoiled legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquis household. Relying on her family background, she forces poor scholar Qi Mo into marriage, then torments the refined man after the wedding, acting out at every turn.
Later, when Qi Mo becomes chief councilor and is saved by his white-moonlight, Chu You, the first person he takes revenge on is her, his wicked first wife.
In the end, her entire family is executed, and her household is destroyed.
Survival comes first. Su Yaoyao immediately lays down her ironclad rules for staying alive: act gentle and virtuous to win his favor, then ask for a divorce before his hatred grows too deep.
From then on, she brings him tea, looks after him, and frets over him, as obedient as if she'd become a different person.
She assumes she can eventually get a letter of divorce and walk away unscathed, but Qi Mo's gaze grows increasingly strange.
His initial coldness and distance give way to smiling eyes. He stands up for her, and even his voice softens when he speaks to her.
Su Yaoyao secretly celebrates: she's earned enough favor. Once his white-moonlight appears, the divorce is in the bag!
But when Chu You shows up as expected, Su Yaoyao presents Qi Mo with the divorce papers. He doesn't even raise his eyes.
